Answer:

first term a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of the first 6 terms S6 = 15624

common ratio r= 5

n= 6

first term a=?

Formula: S6= a(r^n-1)/r-1

15624 = a( 5^6-1)/5-1

15624 = a(15625-1)/4

15624= a( 15624)÷4

15624= 15624a÷4

Cross multiply

15624×4 = 15624a

62496 = 15624a

divide both sides by 15624

62496÷15624 = 15624a÷15624

4 = a

a= 4

This expression is a perfect square trinomial. It has two answers but they don't have to be different. In this case it has to be the same - because it is a perfect square trinomial.

Identify the linear graph.
jenyasd209 [6]

The answer is: The second one. Why?


Because, when it's a linear graph, the slope of the graph cannot change.


And that's the only graph that fits the criteria

A circle centered at (-2,3) and contains point (5,9) which represents the equation
SIZIF [17.4K]
The standard form of the equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2, where (h,k) is the center of the circle, (x,y) is a point of the circle, and r is the length of the radius of the circle. When the equation of a circle is written, h,k, and r are numbers, while x and y are still variables. (x-2)^2 + (y-k)^2 = 16 is an example of a circle. The problem gives us two of the three things that a circle has, a point (5,9) and the center (-2,3). We need to find the radius in order to write the equation. We substitute -2 for h, 3 for k, 5 for x, and 9 for y to get (5 - (-2))^2 + (9 - 3)^2 = r^2 We simplify: 49 + 36 = r^2, r^2 = 85. We only need to know r^2 because the equation of a circle has r^2. We now have all the information to write the equation of a circle. (x + 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 85.

If g(x) = -2x - 2, find g(-2x).​
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

You would replace the x with -2x so you would end up with -2×-2 and that is 4 then minus 2 is 2.

Answer:

  y = 3x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the parallel line will have the same x- and y-coefficients, but a different constant. You can put the given point values into the equation to see what the constant needs to be:

  y = 3x + b

  10 = 3·2 + b . . . . . . substitute x=2, y=10

  4 = b . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6

The equation of the line is ...

  y = 3x +4
