Answer:
4.718592
Step-by-step explanation:
To get to -14.4 from 18 you multiply 18 x 0.8
Repeat that until you get to the 7th term
18 (1st)
18 x 0.8 = -14.4 (2nd)
-14.4 x 0.8 = 11.52 (3rd)
11.52 x 0.8 = 9.216 (4th)
9.216 x 0.8 = 7.3728 (5th)
7.3728 x 0.8 = 5.89824 (6th)
5.89824 x 0.8 = 4.718592 (7th)
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
cross multiply
42 x 24 = 48x
1008 = 48x
x = 21
Substitute 4 for y. Then -3x^2 + 16 = 52.
Solve for x. Subtract 16 from both sides, obtaining -3x^2 = 36.
Divide both sides by -3, obtaining x^2 = -12. This last result makes no sense, as no square of a real number could be negative. Probably this is where you're ":getting a negative answer."
If imaginary answers were allowed, then x = i*√12 = i*2√3 or x = -i*2√3.
x =
First, distribute 8
8s+24=72
Now, isolate the variable with inverse operations
subtract 24 from both sides
8s=48
Divide by 8 on both sides
s=6
