Answer:

$a_2_0=-65$

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, the sequence starts from 30 and decreases by 5 each time. So, one possible formula for that sequence could be:

$a_n=35-5n\hspace{10}n\in N$

Let's confirm the formula by evaluating the first 4 terms:

$a_1=35-5(1)=35-5=35\\a_2=35-5(2)=35-10=25\\a_3=35-5(3)=35-15=20\\a_4=35-5(4)=35-20=15$

Finally evaluating n=20:

$a_2_0=35-5(20)=35-100=-65$

I think when you divide decimals the numbers get bigger but when you divide by a whole number, they get smaller.

madam [21]

To translate 5 units left, add 5 to every x to move up 10 units, add 10 to whole equaiotn example y=2x+2 move left 5 y=2(x+5)+2 move up 10 y=2(x+5)+2+10

Please help me on this I’m so tired and I can’t sleep until my progress is at 80 and this is the end of my year it’s at 79%

Mice21 [21]

Answer: The bottom one is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The one on the right wouldn't be correct because histograms are supposed to always be connected from the beginning of it.

The one on the left is ignoring the fact that 40-59 and 60-79 are two different periods of minutes.

So the only correct on would be the bottom one.

Which ordered pair maximizes the objective function p = 3x 8y? (0, 0) (2, 7) (5, 6) (8, 1)

Degger [83]

The ordered pair maximizes the objective function p = 3x + 8y will be (5, 6) .Option C is correct.

<h3>What is the objective function?</h3>

The objective function is simply an equation that represents the goal production capability that relates to maximizing profits in relation to manufacturing.

On putting the values we will get the values one by one. We get;

1. (0, 0)

$3 (0)+8(0) = 0$
