The first step would be to add 27 to both sides
Sum of geometric sequence
for the sum where the initial value is a₁ and the common ratio is r and the term is n
common ratio is -3
-5 times -3 is 15, -15 times -3=-45 etc
first term is -5
and we want the 8th term
the sum is 8200
-2 5/12 - 3 2/3 + 1 1/2 =
- 29/12 - 11/3 + 3/2 =
-29/12 - 44/12 + 18/12 =
-73/12 + 18/12 =
- 55/12 or - 4 7/12 <===
The graph of f(x) is a straight line passing through points (0, -7) and (7, 0)
Answer:
I see this
"Which relation is a function?
A {(-3,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}
B {(6,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}
C {(-3,4),(3,-8),(3,8)}
D {(-3,4),(3,5),(-3,8)}"
So the answer is none of these.
Please make sure you have the correct problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
A set of points is a function if you have all your x's are different. That is, all the x's must be distinct. There can be no value of x that appears more than once.
If you look at choice A, this is not a function because the first two points share the same x, which is -3.
Choice B is not a function because the first and last point share the same x, which is 6.
Choice C is not a function because the last two points share the same x, which is 3.
Choice D is not a function because the first and last choice share the same x, which is -3.
None of your choices show a function.
If you don't have that choice you might want to verify you written the problem correctly.
This is what I see:
"Which relation is a function?
A {(-3,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}
B {(6,4),(-3,8),(6,8)}
C {(-3,4),(3,-8),(3,8)}
D {(-3,4),(3,5),(-3,8)}"
