First, we inspect what type of sequence is the order of the coordinates:
a2 = 1
a3 = 2
a4 = 4
Getting the difference,
a3 - a2 = 1
a4 - a3 = 2
The differences are not equal; hence, the sequence is not arithmetic.
Getting the ratio:
a3/a2 = 2
a4/a3 = 2
The common ratio is 2. Using the general form for a geometric series:
an = a1 r^(n-1)
If n = 2
1 = a1 (2)^(2-1)
a1 = 1/2
So,
an = (1/2) (2)^(n-1)
The answer is the first option.
Answer:if it’s a pretest just guess you don’t need to get it right
Step-by-step explanation:
x = y^2 + 10y + 22
Divide 10 by 2 to give 5 which becaoses the second term in the parentheses
x = (y + 5)^2 - 25 + 22
x = (y + 5)^2 - 3 Answer.
-(2y-8)-3(1+x)-7
-10y+40-3(1-x)-7
-10y+40-3-3x-7
-10y+30-3x
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Line CD has a slope of -5/3 and the negative reciprocal of 3/5. The slope for the line given is 3/5 so the slopes are right. Then look at the y-intercept of the line given: (0,-2) Go up 3 and over 5 and you can see it pass through the line CD making C the answer.
