In order to have a linear equation, you have to write an equation like
The sequence has to start with 3, so we must choose , because this guarantees that when we have
Now, must be even. In fact, if is even, will always be even for every possible , and will be odd.
So, for example, you might choose
Which will produce the following sequence:
and so on
Answer:
= -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Pick two points
(1,0) and (3,-1)
Then use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-1 -0)/(3-1)
= -1 /2
Answer:
x > 43,589
Step-by-step explanation:
Thats all to it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Plz mark brainlest.
The first term is, <span> <span>x2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -3x </span> its coefficient is <span> -3 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> -70 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> <span> 1</span> • -70 = -70</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of -70 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -3 </span>.
<span><span> -70 + 1 = -69</span><span> -35 + 2 = -33</span><span> -14 + 5 = -9</span><span> -10 + 7 = -3 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -10 and 7
<span>x2 - 10x</span> + 7x - 70
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (x-10)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
7 • (x-10)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
<span>(x+7) • (x-10)</span>
