Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 6

a2 = -1.2*a_(n-1)

a2 = -1.2*a_1

a2 = -1.2 * 6

a2 = -7.2

a3 = -1.2*a_(n-1)

a3 = -1.2*a_2

a3 = -1.2 * - 7.2

a3 = 8.64

a4 = -1.2 * a_3

a4 = -1.2 * 8.64

a4 = -10.368

Answer:  The correct option is (B) -10.368.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a sequence is defined b the following :

a_1=6,~~~a_n=-1.2a_{n-1}.

We are to find the 4-th term.

To find the fourth term, we need to start from finding the first term.

If n = 2, then the second term is given by

a_2=-1.2\times a_1=-1.2\times 6=-7.2.

If n = 3, then the third term is given by

a_3=-1.2\times a_2=-1.2\times (-7.2)=8.64.

If n = 4, then the fourth term is given by

a_4=-1.2\times a_3=-1.2\times 8.64=-10.368.

Thus, the fourth term of the given sequence is -10.368.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

If p varies directly with q, and p = 10 when q = 5, what is the value of p when q = 20
Inessa [10]
The value of p would be 40. This is because the ratio of p:q = 10:5. this could be simplify into p:q = 2:1. Applying the ratio p:20 = 2:1, P=40.

The product of x and the sum of 6 and 8 times the square of x
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

x(6 + 8x²) or 6x + 8x³.

Step-by-step explanation:

"The square of x" can be represented by x² and 8 times that would be 8 * x² or 8x². The sum of 6 and 8x² can be represented by 6 + x² and the product of x and 6 + x² can be represented by x * (6 + 8x²) or x(6 + 8x²) which simplifies to 6x + 8x³.

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

y>0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because no matter what x-value you enter, the fact that it's an even exponent will make the y-value always positive. And regardless of the 4 in the exponent, you can still have values less than 4 (but still positive).
