The answer is 15/6 (5+5+5)/6
To expand the given expression we proceed as follows:
(6x²-2x-6)(8x²+7x+8)
=6x²(8x²+7x+8)-2x(8x²+7x+8)-6(8x²+7x+8)
=48x⁴+42x³+48x²-16x³-14x²-16x-48x²-42x-48
putting like terms together:
48x⁴+(42x³-16x³)+(48x²-48x²)+(-16x-42x)-48
=48x⁴+26x³+0x²-58x-48
hence the answer is:
48x⁴+26x³-58x-48
3, 1, -1, -3, -5
-2 -2 -2 -2
a(n) = a₁ + d(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n) + 2(1)
a(n) = 3 - 2n + 2
a(n) = -2n + 3 + 2
a(n) = -2n + 5
a₁₄ = -2(14) + 5
a₁₄ = -28 + 5
a₁₄ = -23
The answer is C.
Answer:
A general exponential equation is written as:
f(x) = A*(r)^x
Where:
A is the initial value, this is the value that the function takes when x = 0.
r is the rate of growth
x is the variable.
In this case, the function is:
f(x) = 2*(4)^x
The initial value is:
f(0) = 2*(4)^0 = 2*1 = 2
The initial value is 2.
And the rate of growth is 4.
So Martin seems to mixed these two values (he said initial value = 4, and rate = 2, which is the opposite of what we found)
