Answer:

The first term is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for this kind of sequence (arithmetic) is a(n) = a(1) + (n-1)c, where c is the common difference.  Here, we have a(6) = -1 = a(1) + (6-1)(-3), or -1 +15 = a(1).  The first term is 14.

Evaluate the function at the indicated values. f(x)= 6x^2+ 5x -12
seropon [69]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of the function at the indicated value.

f(x)= 6x^2+ 5x -12

Indicated values are : f(-7), f(0), f(6), f(7)

To find f(-7), put x = -7 in the given function

f(-7)= 6(-7)^2+ 5(-7) -12=247

To find f(0), put x = 0 in the given function

f(0)= 6(0)^2+ 5(0) -12=-12

To find f(6), put x = 6 in the given function

f(6)= 6(6)^2+ 5(6) -12=234

To find f(7), put x = 7 in the given function

f(7)= 6(7)^2+ 5(7) -12=317

Hence, this is the required solution.

Your volume would be 27 inches cubed.
This is because Volume = length x width x height. If you multiply 3 x 3 x 3 you get 27. This resulting in your answer being 27.
