Just plug in 16 for n

a(16) = 7 - 2(16)

a(16) = 7 - 32

a(16) = -25

so the answer is -25

In the expression that you are given, n is the is number in the sequence. So in this scenario, n=16. So substitute the 16 into the equation. $a(n)=7-2(16)=7-32=-25$ . So the 16th term in the sequence is -25.

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? x -9, -5, -1, 3 y -2,-7,-12, -17

x y
------ -----
-9 -2
-5 -7
-1 -12
3 -17

ur x's all have a difference of 4, and ur y's all have a difference of -5...so yes, this is linear with a slope of (-7+2) / (-5 + 9) = -5/4

The table shows values of of a function F(x). What is the average rate of change F(x) over the interval from X = 5 to x = 9? Sho

vitfil [10]

Answer: the average rate of change is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change is the slope. Therefore, you must use the following formula for calculate the slope:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

As you can see in the table, when x=5, y=-2 and when x=9, y=14. Then the points you must substitute into the formula are:

(5,-2) and (9,14)

Then, you obtain:

$m=\frac{14-(-2)}{9-5}=4$

8.4 gallons of gas for $23.94. Which equation can be used to determine the price of each gallon of gas?

mojhsa [17]

Here is the equation: (gas=g)

8.5g= 23.94

All you need to do is the inverse of multiplication on the other side. (division)

23.94/8.5= 2.81647.....

g= 2.82 (rounded to the hundredths place)

I hope this helps!
