Answer:
y = -5/7x - 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the slope is -5/7, you multiply that by X.
Then you add -2/3, the y-intercept.
Sequence: 5/2, 5/4, 5/8, 5/16
a8=?
a1=5/2
a2=5/4
a3=5/8
a4=5/16
a2/a1=(5/4)/(5/2)=(5/4)*(2/5)=(5*2)/(4*5)=2/4=1/2
a3/a2=(5/8)/(5/4)=(5/8)*(4/5)=(5*4)/(8*5)=4/8=1/2
a4/a3=(5/16)/(5/8)=(5/16)*(8/5)=(5*8)/(16*5)=8/16=1/2
Ratio: r=a2/a1=a3/a2=a4/a3→r=1/2
an=a1*r^(n-1)
a1=5/2, r=1/2
an=(5/2)*(1/2)^(n-1)
an=(5/2)*[1^(n-1)/2^(n-1)]
an=(5/2)*[1/2^(n-1)]
an=(5*1)/[2*2^(n-1)]
an=5/2^(1+n-1)
an=5/2^n
n=8→a8=5/2^8
a8=5/256
Answers:
The formula for the general term or nth term for the sequence is an=5/2^n
a8=5/256
If there are 3 feet per yard, then all you have to do is take the 96 feet and divide by 3, this gives you 32 yards.
If you have any questions please let me know, other wise take care. (:
Let the two sides of a right triangle be equal to one, which means that the hypotenuse is √2
Since cosa=adjacent side / hypotenuse
cos45=1/√2
We can rationalize the denominator by multiplying numerator and denominator by √2
√(2)/2
or if you prefer: √(1/2)
