Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of a geometric progression can be determined by using the formula:
Tn=arn−1
where: a = first term and r = common ratio
Substitute the given values of first term and common ratio into the formula:
Tn=arn−1
T5=(40)(0.5)5−1
T5=(40)(0.5)4
T5=(40)(0.0625)
T5=2.5
36
List the numbers
31,34,34,35,37,38,38,39
Mark out one from each side till you get 37 and 35 average them to get your answer
<span>A. -2.6 > 2.521 false
B.-0.4 > -0.004 false
C.-8.0329 > -8.045 true
D.-36.5 > -36.07 false
answer
</span>C.-8.0329 > -8.045
Look at the signs and turn it into an easier form:
35 - 13 + 8 + 6
= 36
The correct answer should be B: y = -3x + 2.
Since the line crosses the y axis at 2, your y-intercept should be 2. Using rise over run you can compare the equations to the graph. If you convert 3x to a fraction, it would be 3/1x. Since the line is going down 3 and the rise of the y = -3x + 2 is -3, that part is correct. The line also moves over 1 unit, so the run is 1, therefore the correct slope would be -3 or -3/1. Now if you combine what you have it should be y = -3x - 2, which is the same equation as B.
