Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence of numbers is increasing in geometric progression. The consecutive terms differ by a common ratio, r

Common ratio = 6/3 = 12/6 = 2

The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

n represents the number of terms.

From the information given,

a = 3

r = 2

The function, f(n), representing the nth term of the sequence is

f(n) = 3 × 2^(n - 1)

Find the slope of the line through (-9,-10) and (-2,-5)

Alex

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 9, - 10) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, - 5)

m = $\frac{-5+10}{-2+9}$ = $\frac{5}{7}$ → C

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathrm{Line\:passing\:through\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(2,\:1\right)\\\\\mathrm{Find\:the\:line\:}\\\mathbf{y=mx+b}\mathrm{\:passing\:through\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right)\mathrm{,\:}\left(2,\:1\right)\\\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:slope\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right),\:\left(2,\:1\right):\quad \\m=\frac{4}{3}\\\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:-3\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)\\\left\\$

$\\m=\frac{1-\left(-3\right)}{2-\left(-1\right)}\\\\Refine\\\\m=\frac{4}{3}\\\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:}y\mathrm{\:intercept}:\quad b=-\frac{5}{3}\\\\y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{5}{3}\\$

Convert equation to standard form

$y - \frac{4}{3} x + \frac{5}{3} = 0\\\\Multiply \:through\: by\: 3;\\\\3\times (y - \frac{4}{3} x + \frac{5}{3} )=0\\\\3y -4x+5 = 0\\Arrange\:n\:form\:of \:;\\Ax +By = C\\\\-4x +3y =-5$
