Answer:

-1066.65 to 2 decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

(−800)+(−200)+(−50)+(−12.5)+...

This is a Geometric series with common ratio r =(-200) / ) / (-800) = 0.25 and first term a1 = -800.

Sum of n terms = a1 * (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)

Sum of 8 terms = -800 * (1 - 0.25^8) / (1 - 0.25)

= -800 * 1.333313

= -1066.65.

What does and 6 7/12 yards x 3 1/6 = ?

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Well all you have to do is turn one of the numbers from yards to feet or feet to yards, so you can accurately add it. Considering it would be easier to turn the yards to feet, you use the fact that, 1 yard is equal to 3 feet. So the 6 7/12 as feet is now 19.75 feet. So now you multiply them and 3 1/6 times 19.75 is 62.5416666535, and you can round this to just 63.

Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line passing through the points (-5, 6) and (0, 1).

andrey2020 [161]

Formula of the slope of a linear function:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m= (-1 - 6)/[0- (-5)]

m= -7/5 This is the slope requested

Please help me!!!!!!!

First we will find the value of x.

To find the value of x we can add angle Q and angle O and set them equal to 180 and solve for x.

We will be setting them equal to 180 since the opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary.

angle Q + angle O = 180
6x - 5 + x + 17 = 180
7x +12 = 180
7x = 168
x = 24

Now we can use 24 for x and find the value of angle QRO

angle QRO = 2x + 19
angle QRO = 2(24) + 19
angle QRO = 48 + 19
angle QRO = 67

So the answer choice B is the right answer.

Hope this helps :)

You have proveGraph the image of rectangle RSTU after a translation 4 units down.

rodikova [14]

After the translation 4 units down

The rule of translation is (x, y) to (x , y-4)

The graph will be as following

============================================================================

For the graph of the triangle:

D = ( 4 , 0) , B = (6 , -2) and C = ( 10 , -2)

it is required to graph after translation 7 units left and 8 units up

So, for each point add ( -7 , 8 )

So,

D' = ( -3 , 8) , B' = (-1 , 6 ) and C' = ( 3 , 6)

the graph will be as following:
