Hello,

$a_{5}=36$
$a_{6}=36*r$
$a_{7}=36*r^2=16$
==>r²=16/36=4/9

==>r=2/3 or r=-2/3

Calculate the average rate of change for the function f(x) = x4 + 3x3 − 5x2 + 2x − 2, from x = −1 to x = 1

Reptile [31]

Average rate of change over the interval [a,b] for y=f(x) is given by f(b)−f(a)b−a

Hence, average rate of change of from x=−2 to x=6 i.e. over the interval [−2,6] for y=f(x)=12x2 is given rate of change=f(6)−f(−2)6−(−2)

As f(−2)=12(−2)2=2 and f(6)=12(6)2= rate of change=18−28=162=2

Which of the following sets of measurements CANNOT represent the three side lengths of a triangle? A 3 cm, 3 cm, 3 cm B 3 cm. 4

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As here,

3 cm + 6 cm = 9cm. = 9cm

And as we know,

According to Triangle Inequality Property, 

Measurement of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side. 

But here,

Sum of two sides is same as the third side,

So,

Option D is the required answer.

Evaluate the expression using x = –1 and y=3. (6x4y3) What is the value of the expression? –162 –54 162 216

Wewaii [24]

Subst. the given x and y values: 6(-1)^4 * (3)^3
6 * 27 = 162

Note that you MUST do the exponentiation first.

Also note that your post would be much clearer if you'd please use " ^ " to denote exponentiation: 6x^4 * y^3
