Answer: (B) -625
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given the sequence {-500, -100, -20, -4, -0.8, ... }, we know that that the first term (a) is -500 and the ratio (r) is 
Input those values into the Sum formula:

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex form of the equation of a circle is
where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius. This means that for the circle with center (-3,1) and radius 5 substitute into the vertex form these values. Substitute h = -3, k= 1, and r = 5. The equation becomes
. This simplifies to
. The solution is C.
Keeping in mind that x = rcos(θ) and y = rsin(θ).
we know the magnitude "r" of U and V, as well as their angle θ, so let's get them in standard position form.


Answer:
Here Ariel is wrong because 3x^3 is higher power than y^2
3x^3 goes first
then the mixed term -4x^2y
then the y^2
then the 2
So, Marcus is right
Standard form means that you write the terms by descending degree. here's main rules how to write polynomial expression in the standard form:
1. write the term with the highest exponent first (terms of third degree in our case 3x^3 );
2. write the terms with lower exponents in descending order (term -4x^2y followed by y^2
);
3. remember that a variable with no exponent has an understood exponent of 1 (here are no such terms);
4. a constant term (a number with no variable) always goes last (term 2).
