Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 2/3 to both sides.
x+−2/3+2/3=8+2/3
x=26/3

The first 5 terms in an arithmetic sequence is 4,2,0,-2,-4
Explanation:
The general form of an arithmetic sequence is

where a denotes the first term of the sequence, d denotes the common difference.
Here a = 4 and d = -2
To determine the consecutive terms of the sequence, let us substitute the values for n.
To find the second term, substitute n = 2 in the formula 

Simplifying,

Similarly,
For n = 3,

For n = 4,

For n = 5,

Thus, the first 5 terms of the arithmetic sequence is 4,2,0,-2,-4
Question a:
f(6) = (6)² + 2(6) + 8
f(6) = 36 + 12 + 8
f(6) = 56
Question b:
f(x+4) = (x+4)² + 2(x+4) + 8
f(x+4) = x² + 8x + 16 + 2x + 8 + 8
f(x+4) = x² + 10x + 32
Question c:
f(-x) = (-x)² + 2(-x) + 8
f(-x) = x - 2x + 8
75% I think.
because if you do 560 - 420 you get 140.
140 / 560 x 100 = 25
which means there is a 25% decrease, so they took 75%.
