Answer:

Correct answer:  Third answer  aₙ = -5 · 2⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-5, -10, -20, -40,.....

First term       a₁ = -5

Second term a₂ = -10

Third term     a₃ = -20

Common ratio or quotient

q = a₂ / a₁ = a₃ / a₂ = -10 / -5 = -20 / -10 = 2

q = 2

First term  a₁

Second term a₂ = a₁ · q = a₂ · q²

Third term     a₃ = a₂ · q = a₁ · q³

.....................................................

n-th term aₙ = a₁ · q⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

aₙ = -5 · 2⁽ⁿ ⁻ ¹⁾

−

b

2

4

a

We know that

a

=

1

,

b

=

−

8

and

c

=

2

, so let's substitute:

k

=

2

−

(

−

16

=

−

14

.

So, we have

min

=

−

14

. Let's check:

graph{(x^2 - 8x + 2 - y)(-14 -y)=0 [-11.82, 20.22, -15.38, 0.64]}

Shannon's family is going to install a custom swing set in the backyard. There are 5 kinds of swings and 3 kinds of slides, and
asambeis [7]

Answer:

15 different swing sets

Step-by-step explanation:

The swing set is composed by one swing and one slide.

There is 5 different types of swing, so there are 5 possibilities to fill the one swing we need.

There are 3 different types of slides, so there are 3 possibilities to fill the one slide we need.

So, to find the total number of swing sets, we just need to multiply the swing possibilities and the slide possibilities:

Number of sets = 5 * 3 = 15 different sets
