Answer:
If there are an even number (0, 2, 4, ...) of negative factors to multiply, the product is positive. If there are an odd number (1, 3, 5, ...) of negative factors, the product is negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: A) 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Tn = ar^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms.
If the third term is 20, it means that
T3 = 20 = ar^(3 - 1)
20 = ar²- - - - - - - - - - 1
If the third term is 20, it means that
T5 = 5 = ar^(5 - 1)
5 = ar⁴- - - - - - - - - - 2
Dividing equation 2 by equation 1, it becomes
5/20 = r⁴/r²
1/4 = r^(4 - 2)
(1/2)² = r²
r = 1/2
Let's rewrite the given fraction 12/17 to a decimal number. Then Let's round to the nearest thousandth.
To do that, divide the numerator by the denominator.
=> 12 / 17
=> 0.7058
Le's round this to
=>0.706
Answer:
slope = 1 , y- intercept = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )
y = x - 5 is in this form
with slope m = 1 and y- intercept c = - 5
