The answer is C because your times each number by 2 6 times 2 is 12, 12 times 2 is 24, 24 times 2 is 48 and you do it 8 times until you get your answer which is 768 bulbs

This is a geometric sequence of the form:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a=initial term, r=common ratio, n=term number

The common ratio, r, is the defining characteristic of geometric sequences.  It is the value found when dividing each term by the previous term.  In this case:

r=24/12=12/6=2 and we see that the initial value is 6 so

a(n)=6(2)^(n-1) so in the eighth year:

a(8)=6(2^7)

a(8)=768

So after eight years there will be 768 bulbs.

Contains the x intercept of 4x-y=8 and the point (-4,3)
nydimaria [60]
<span>1.       </span><span>4x –y = 8, the point (-4, 3)
Let’s say y = 0
=> 4x – 8
=> 4x / 4 = 8 /4
=> x = 2
So the point is (2 , 0).
Now, we have 2 forms, the (2,0) and the (-4, 3)
=> (y2 – y1)(x2 – x1) = m
=> m = (0 - 3)(2-(-4))
=> m = (0 - 3)(2+4)
=>  m = (-3)(6)
=> m = -1/2
Thus,
y = -1/2x + a
=> 0 = -1 + a so a = 1
y = -x/2 + 1</span>

⇒ 5+b= 10
⇒ b= 10-5
⇒ b= 5

Final answer: b=5~
