The sequence: a 1 = - 4, a 2 = 8, a 3 = -16,...
a 2 = a 1 * r
8 = - 4 * r
r = 8 : ( - 4 )
r = - 2
a n = a 1 * r^(n-1)
a 5 = - 4 * ( - 2 ) ^4 = - 4 * 16 = - 64
Answer:
The fifth term in the sequence is - 64.
Answer:
x^4 + 7x^3 + 12x^2
Simplifying
x4 + 7x3 + 12x2
Reorder the terms:
12x2 + 7x3 + x4
Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'x2'.
x2(12 + 7x + x2)
Factor a trinomial.
x2((4 + x)(3 + x))
Final result:
x2(4 + x)(3 + x)
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a translation.
A reflection across a line is like flipping that object like a pancake over the line. It gets turned upside-down.
When you flip the pancake again, now across a parallel line, it gets turned right-side up again, just in a new location.
