Answer:

The expression that can be used to calculate the rate per second at which the machine launches the balls is fraction 20 over 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-axis label is Time in seconds, and the x-axis values are from 0 to 20 in increments of 4 for each grid line.

And the y-axis label is Number of Balls and the y-axis values from 0 to 100 in increments of 20 for each grid line.

If the ordered pairs (4,20) and (8,40) are on the graph, then the slope of the line will be represented by

$M = \frac{40 - 20}{8 - 4} = \frac{20}{4}$

Therefore, the expression that can be used to calculate the rate per second at which the machine launches the balls is fraction 20 over 4. (Answer)

Find an equation for the nth term of a geometric sequence where the second and fifth terms are -8 and 512, respectively.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Easy
recall that
an=a1(r)^(n-1)
so

given 2nd and 5th term

we get
a2 and a5
so
a2=a1(r)^(2-1)=a1(r)^1=a1r
a5=a1(r)^(5-1)=a1(r)^4

also remember that $\frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}$
so
$\frac{a_5}{a_2}= \frac{a_1r^4}{a_1r^1} =r^{4-1}=r^3= \frac{512}{-8}=-64$
so r^3=-64
cube root
r=-4
so

a2=a1r=-8
a2=a1(-4)=-8
divide both sides by -4
a1=2

so

equation is
$a_n=2(-4)^{n-1}$

Find the distance between A (2,6) and N (5, 10). Round<br> To the nearest tenth

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

5.0 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be expressed in formula of:

$\displaystyle{d = \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}}$

Determine:

$\displaystyle{(x_2,y_2)}$ is (5,10).
$\displaystyle{(x_1,y_1)}$ is (2,6).

Therefore, substitute in the formula to find distance:

$\displaystyle{d = \sqrt{\left(5-2\right)^2+\left(10-6\right)^2}}\\\\\displaystyle{d = \sqrt{3^2+4^2}}\\\\\displaystyle{d = \sqrt{9+16}}\\\\\displaystyle{d = \sqrt{25}}\\\\\displaystyle{d = 5}$
