First you make the fractions have a common denominator. In this case it would be 6.

Then you have 8 3/6 - 2 4/6.

Because the number you are subtracting is greater than what you are subtracting from, you can turn the fraction into an improper fraction.

8 3/6 = 7 9/6

9/6 - 4/6 = 5/6

Then subtract the whole numbers.

7-2 = 5

Answer: 5 5/6

What are the first four terms of the sequence given by the formula below an=-2n+4
erica [24]
An = -2n + 4 ; where n is the sequence number or order.

a1 = -2(1) + 4 
a1 = -2 + 4
a1 = 2

a2 = -2(2) + 4
a2 = -4 + 4
a2 = 0

a3 = -2(3) + 4
a3 = -6 + 4
a3 = -2

a4 = -2(4) + 4
a4 = -8 + 4
a4 = -4

So the first four terms of the sequence are: 2, 0, -2, -4

Quadratic Functions Put the equationy = x^2 + 14a + 40 into the form y = (x - h )^2 + k: Answer: y Preview Get help: Video Poins
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The required form is y=(x+7)^2-9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided quadratic function.

y=x^2 + 14x + 40

We need to put the equation into the form y = (x - h )^2 + k

Add and subtract 49 in order to make the above function a perfect square.

y=x^2 + 14x+49-49 + 40

y=x^2 + 14x+7^2-49 + 40

y=(x+7)^2-49 + 40

y=(x+7)^2-9

Hence, the required form is y=(x+7)^2-9.

x²-16x+8=0
Therefore 56 must be added.

Good luck
