Answer: x=0.25
Step-by-step explanation: 1−8x=−16x2
Simplify both sides of the equation.
−8x+1=−16x2
Subtract -16x^2 from both sides.
−8x+1−−16x2=−16x2−−16x2
16x2−8x+1=0
16x2+−8x+1=0
Use quadratic formula with a=16, b=-8, c=1.
x=
−b±√b2−4ac
2a
x=
−(−8)±√(−8)2−4(16)(1)
2(16)
x=
8±√0
32
x=0.25
4 thousand 7 hundred is 4,700
Answer:
Common difference (d) = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
formula=>
an = a + (n-1)d
=> -8 = 7 + (4-1)d
=> -15 = 3d
=> 3d = -15
=> d = -15/3
=> d = -5
The common difference
(-73 - -40)/(28 - 17) = -3
Term a1: -40 - (-3*(17-1)) = 8
Term a2: 8+-3=5
Term a3: 2
Term a4: -1
Term a5: -4
Answer:
Correct rate of change is -5; correct initial value is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change is the coefficient of the x term, which here is -5. So Bryan has the rate of change wrong.
The initial value of the function is found by letting x = 0. Here, we get
y = -5(0) + 3, or y = b = 3. The initial value is 3, not -5.
