Answer: Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The sequence shown in the problem is a Geometric sequence, because it has a common ratio. This means that when you multiply one of those numbers by the common ratio, you obtain the next number.

2. Then, you can calculate the common ratio as following:

$r=\frac{108}{-324}=-\frac{1}{3}$

3. Therefor, the next term is:

$(12)(-\frac{1}{3})=-4$

It is the distance that - 5 is from 0 on the number line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to select a statement that is true about the value of StartAbsoluteValue negative 5 EndAbsoluteValue i.e. |- 5|

Definition of the absolute value function is given by, |x| = x for, x ≥ 0 and |x| = - x for x < 0.

Now, an absolute value function gives the positive value of any value in the function i.e. |- 5| = 5.

Therefore, it is the distance that - 5 is from 0 on the number line. (Answer)

A table and 8 chairs weigh 235.68 lb together. If the table weighs 157.84 lb, what is the weight of one chair in pounds?

Alona [7]

Answer: 9.73 lb each chair

Step-by-step explanation:

You substract the weight of the table alone from the full weight:

235.68 - 157.84=77.84

Then you divide 77.84 by 8 chairs and you obtain the weight of each individual chair

77.84/8= 9.73 the weight of each individual chair

What number must be added to the expression below to complete the<br> square?<br> x² - 18x

kiruha [24]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 81}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic is:

$ax^2+bx+c$

To complete the square, the a (leading coefficient) must be 1 and there can only be terms with variables on one side.

The expression given:

$x^2-18x$

follows these rules. Next, we divide the b (linear coefficient) by 2, then square it. Basically:

$(\frac{b}{2})^2$

The b in the expression is -18.

$(\frac{-18}{2})^2$

$(-9)^2= -9*-9= 81$

This is the number that is added.
