Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the nth term is

T_n = ar^(n-1)

a = first term

r = common ratio which can be gotten by dividing second term by first term, third term by second term etc

Therefore

a = 16

r = -3.2 ÷ 16

r = -0.2

T_7 = ar^(7-1)

T_7 = ar^6

T_7 = 16[(-0.2)^6]

T_7 = 16(0.000064)

T_7 = 0.001024

The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}} AB is M(0, -3)M(0,−3). If the coordinates of AA are (2, -5)(2,−5), what are the coordinates

ICE Princess25 [194]

Using the mid-point concept, it is found that the coordinates of B are (-2, -1).

The mid-point of two points is the <u>mean of the coordinates of each point</u>.

In this problem:

The points are: A(2, -5) and B(x,y).

The mid-point is (0, -3).

Applying the concept for both the x and y-coordinates, we have that:

$\frac{x + 2}{2} = 0$

$x + 2 = 0$

$x = -2$

$\frac{-5 + y}{2} = -3$

$-5 + y = -6$

$y = -1$

The coordinates of B are (-2, -1).

Let's use the slope intercept form of a line which is:

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept.

Mathematically m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and the y-intercept is just the value of y when x is equal to zero, where the line intercepts the y axis...

First you want to find the slope by finding two clearly identifiable points on the graph...I'll pick (4,4) and (0,1), now we can calculate the slope or "m"...

m=(4-1)/(4-0)=3/4 so now we can say our line is:

y=0.75x+b, using point (4,4) we can now solve for b.

4=0.75(4)+b

4=3+b

b=1 so the line is"

y=0.75x+1
