Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the second term substitute n = 2 into the rule, that is

c(2) = - 6 $(-1/3)^{2-1}$ = - 6( - $\frac{1}{3}$ ) = 2

Mr. Lebsock is 1 year younger than 10 times Addy’s age. If Mr. Lebsock is 29, write and solve equation to solve for Addy’s age.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

29 = 10x - 1

30 = 10x

30 divided by 10 = 3

3 = x

So Addy is 3.

5^2•3^-1•5^-3/3^4•5^-1•3^-3

puteri [66]

Assuming you want the expression to be simplified.

We begin with the following:

$5^{2} * 3^{-1} * \frac{5^-3}{3^{4}} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

Simplify the first part, $5^{2}$ . That is 25. Now we have this:

$25*3^{-1.5} * \frac{-3}{3^{4}} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

Next, simplify $3^{-1}$ , which is 1/3, and get this:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{-3}{3^{4}} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

The next part is $\frac{5^-3}{3^{4}}$ . Simplify the denominator, $3^{4}$ , which is 81. Simplify the numerator, which is 1/125. Then divide 1/125 by 81, which we will keep as a fraction for simplicity's sake, but simplify it to $\frac{1}{10125}$ . Now we have:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{1}{10125} * 5^{-1} * 3^{-3}$

Now simplify $5^{-1}$ , which is 0.2, or 1/5. Now we have:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{1}{10125} * 0.2 * 3^{-3}$

Finally, simplify $3^{-3}$ . That is 1/27. We have:

$25* 1/3 * \frac{1}{10125} * 0.2 * 1/27$

Lastly, multiply them all together! Now we are done, with the product of:

$\frac{1}{6075}$

That certainly did take a while to type in all the LaTex, so I really hope that helped!

Note- if anything isn't working with the LaTex, just tell me and I'll fix it! (:

Nara got two new plants for her apartment. Each plant grew at a constant rate.

stira [4]

Answer:

Which plant was taller when Nara got the plants? C. They were equally tall

Which plant grew faster? B. The second plant

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the first plant :

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2- x1)

m = (36 - 34)/(15 - 10) = 0.4

y-intercept of the first plant :

y = m*x + b

b = y1 - m*x1

b = 34 - 0.4*10 = 30

From the picture we can see that the y-intercept of the second plant is 30 cm

Y-intercept represents plant heights when Nara got the plants; then they were equally tall

From the picture we can see that second plant grew 2 cm in 2 days; then its slope is 2/2 = 1

Slope measures how fast each plant grew; then the second plant grew faster
