Answer:
k = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
-2k = k - 7 - 8
Combine like terms
-2k = k - 15
add 15 to both sides
-2k + 15 = k
Add 2k to both sides
15 = 3k
Divide both sides by 3
k=5
Hope this helps!
A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the parent function 
The graph of this function is represented as red graph in attached diagram.
Now consider the function 
Remind main translations of the graph of the function 
- translation a units to the right;
- translation a units to the left;
- translation a units up;
- translation a units down.
In your case, the graph of the function 
is translated graph of the function 
2 units to the left (blue graph). So, correct answer is option A.
