    xy = -1
x + y = 2

  x + y = -2
- x         - x
        y = -x - 2

                           xy = -1
                  x(-x + 2) = -1
              x(-x) + x(2) = -1
                   -x² + 2x = -1
                         + 1   + 1
-x² + 2x + 1 = 0
-1(x²) - 1(-2x) - 1(-1) = 0
           -1(x² - 2x - 1) = 0
                     -1           -1
                x² - 2x - 1 = 0
x = -(-2) ± √((-2)² - 4(1)(-1))
                      2(1)
x = 2 ± √(4 - 4(-1))
                2
x = 2 ± √(4 + 4)
              2
x = 2 ± √(8)
           2
x = 2 ± 2√(2)
           2
x = 1 ± √(2)

               x + y = 2
  (1 ± √(2)) + y = 2
- (1 ± √(2))       - (1 ± √(2))
                     y = 1 ± √(2)
               (x, y) = (1 ± √(2), 1 ± √(2))

The numbers that multiply to -1 and add to 2 are 1 ± √(2).

The formula for any geometric sequence is a n = a 1 · r n - 1 , where a n represents the value of the nth term, a 1 represents t
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:instead, try making the subscripts and superscripts stand out:

                         n-1

a    =  a         * r

 n         n-1

Believe me, it's worth the extra work to do this!!

Given the sequence   -3, -6, -12, -24, you can easily see that the first term,

a         is    -3.  The common factor is 2.  Note how (-3)*2=-6, and so on.

  1

So, a       = -3 and r=2.

        1

So the formula for this geometric sequence is  

                  n-1

a     =  -3*2

  n

vovangra [49]

Answer:

The exponent of the simplified power is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 / 6 × 6 × 6 × 6

Dividing common factors ( cancel out 4 6's in the Numerator and Denominator

= 6 × 6 × 6 / 1

= 6^3 /1

= 6^3

The exponent of the simplified power is 3
