In order to solve this problem, We need to substitute the first four numbers (1,2,3,4) for n. After this we calculate:
First item:
a1= -2*1 + 4=-2+4=2
Second item:
a2= -2*2 + 4 =-4+4=0
Third item:
a3= -2*3 + 4 =-6+4=-2
Forth item:
a4= -2*4 + 4 =-8+4=-4

So the first 4 items are: 2,0,-2,-4..

Mr. Mole left his burrow and started digging his way down at a constant rate. Time (minutes) Altitude (meters) 666 -20.4−20.4min

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

$-6$ meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given Mr. Mole left his burrow and started digging his way down at a constant rate.

We are also given a table of data as:

Time (minutes) Altitude (meters)

6 -20.4

9 -27.6

12 -34.8

First of all, we will find Mr. Mole's digging rate using slope formula and given information as:

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

$y_2-y_1$ represents difference of two y-coordinates,

$x_2-x_1$ represents difference of two corresponding x-coordinates of y-coordinates.

Let $(6,-20.4)$ be $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(9,-27.6)$ be $(x_2,y_2)$ .

$m=\frac{-27.6-(-20.4)}{9-6}$

$m=\frac{-27.6+20.4}{3}$

$m=\frac{-7.2}{3}$

$m=-2.4$

Now, we will use slope-intercept form of equation to find altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow.

$y=mx+b$ , where,

m = Slope,

b = The initial value or the y-intercept.

Upon substituting $m=-2.4$ and coordinates of point $(6,-20.4)$ , we will get:

$-20.4=-2.4(6)+b$

$-20.4=-14.4+b$

$-20.4+14.4=-14.4+14.4+b$

$-6=b$

Since in our given case y-intercept represents the altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow, therefore, the altitude of Mr. Mole's burrow is $-6$ meters.

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

you want the trinomial (x*x - 6x + __ ) to be written as a binomial squared.

So we would need to realize that the constant would be equal to (-6/2)^2 =(-3)^2 = 9

We have completed the square.

f(x) = 4*( x - 3)^2 + 20 is now in Vertex Form
