In this specific case, the <em>initial term</em> (a) is 5 and the <em>common ratio</em> (r) is -2
Henceforth, after determining what a and r are, we use the formula for the <em>nth term</em>. Which is:

Therefore, the 14th term is :

Okay this is how I would figure this out:
I would take 9 divided by 3 and get 3, so he can tile abut 3 square ft. in 15 minutes.
Then, I would multiply 3 by 4 because there are 4 15 in an hour. I would get 12.
So it takes Jakob 1 hour to tile 12 square feet.
Your answer is: He can tile about 12 square feet per hour.
Hope this helped :)
The answer is: x² – 6x + 9 = 0 .

Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Given: (x – 3)² = 0 ; write as: general form: "ax² + bx + c = 0"; a ≠ 0 .
<span>
Note: </span>(x – 3)² = (x – 3)(x – 3) = x² – 3x – 3x + 9 = x² – 6x + 9 ;
___________________________________________________
Rewrite: (x – 3)² = 0 ; →
as: x² – 6x + 9 = 0 ; which is our answer.
____________________________________________
→ x² – 6x + 9 = 0 ; is in "general form", or "standard equation format"; that is: " ax² + bx + c = 0 "; (a ≠ 0) ;
→ in which:
a = 1 (implied coefficient, since anything multiplied by "1" is that same value);
b = -6;
c = 9

Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
because it has an equal sign
850
All you do is times 425 by 2
425×2
850
