Answer:
a14 = -40,960
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence has a first term of 5 and a common ratio of -10/5 = -2, so the n-th term is given by ...
an = a1·r^(n-1)
an = 5·(-2)^(n-1)
The 14th term is then ...
a14 = 5·(-2)^(14-1) = -5·2^13 = -5·8192
a14 = -40,960
we know that
If two numbers have a sum of zero, then we say they are additive inverses.
so
z+0.8=0 -------> the sum is equal to zero
z=-0.8------> the additive inverse of z is equal to -0.8

You don't have the graph icon here, so we'll have to graph this parabola without it.
Your parabola is y = -x^2 + 3., which resembles y = a(x-h)^2 + k. We can tell immediately that this parabola opens down and that the vertex is (0,3).
Plot (0,3). Besides being the vertex, this point is also the max. of the function.
Now calculate four more points. Choose four arbitrary x-values, such as {-2, 1, 4, 5} and find the y value for each one. Plot the resulting four points. Draw a smooth curve thru them, remembering (again) that the vertex is at (0,3) and that the parabola opens down.
