Answer:7

Step-by-step explanation:

8+4=12

2(x-1)= 2x-2

12=2x-2

now add 2 to both sides

14=2x

Answer:

D. 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the x-coefficient when the equation is solved for y.

2x -5y = 9 . . . . . . . given

-5y = -2x +9 . . . . . .subtract 2x

y = (-2/-5)x +9/(-5) . . . . divide by -5

y = 2/5x -9/5

The coefficient of x is 2/5. That is the slope of the line.

The slope is 2/5.

Answer:

1, 2, 8, 128, 32768

Step-by-step explanation:

$recursive \: formula: \\ a _{n} = 2. {( a_{n - 1} )}^{2} \\ \\ a _{1} = 1...(given) \\ \\ a _{2} = 2. {( a_{2 - 1} )}^{2} = 2 {(a _{1} )}^{2} = 2 {(1)}^{2} \\ \\ a _{2} = 2\\ \\a _{3} = 2. {( a_{3 - 1} )}^{2} = 2 {(a _{2} )}^{2} = 2 {(2)}^{2} \\ \\ a _{3} = 8\\ \\a _{4} = 2. {( a_{4 - 1} )}^{2} = 2 {(a _{3} )}^{2} = 2 {(8)}^{2} \\ \\ a _{4} = 128\\ \\a _{5} = 2. {( a_{5 - 1} )}^{2} = 2 {(a _{4} )}^{2} = 2 {(128)}^{2} \\ \\ a _{5} = 32,768\\ \\$

Thus the first five terms are: 1, 2, 8, 128, 32768.
