Hope this helps

Remember what a standard form equation is. ⇩
Y= mx+ b
Know what this means for your equation⇩
M is the slope and b is the y intercept
Apply this to your equation ⇩
-1/2 is the slope and -4 is the y intercept
How to graph it?⇩
Start by plotting your first point on your y intercept of -4. Then apply rise/run. Since your equation is negative go up 1 and to the left 2. (negative goes to the left and positive to the right) Graph is put above

Answer:

$y = -1/2x - 4$

From this, you can tell it's in slope-intercept form, has a slope of -1/2, and a y-intercept of -4.

I've included a picture of what this equation looks like.

In a geometric sequence, the__ between consecutive terms is constant

kow [346]

Answer:

In a geometric sequence, the ratio between consecutive terms is constant.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence is where you get from one term to another by multiplying by the same value. This value is known as the constant ratio, or common ratio. An example of a geometric sequence and it's constant ratio would be the sequence 4, 16, 64, 256, . . ., in which you find the next term by multiplying the previous term by four. 4 × 4 = 16, 16 × 4 = 64, and so on. So, in this sequence the constant ratio would be four.

A box has a volume given by the trinomial x^3+4x^2-5x. What are possible dimensions of the box? Use factoring.

cricket20 [7]

Answer: The correct answer is Choice B.

To factor this expression, we should first factor out the variable x.

We will have:
x(x^2 + 4x - 5)

Now, all we have to do is factor x^2 + 4x - 5.

The factors of this are (x + 5)(x - 1).

If you put all of the factors together, you have: x(x + 5)(x - 1) or Choice B.
