Answer:
a=2.4
Step-by-step explanation:
9 - 6 + 4 - 8/3 ..,
geometric series a(n) = a1r^(n-1)
r = a(n+1)/a(n)
-6/9 = -2/3
4/-6 = -2/3
-8/3/4 = -2/3
so r = -2/3 and a1 = 9
Sn = a1(1-r^n)/(1-r) = 9(1-(-2/3)^n)/(1-(-2/3))
n is infinite Sn = 9/(5/3) = 27/5
To formulate the equation that shows the cost of 10 pounds of potatoes is 8 dollars we proceed as follows;
suppose the cost 1 pound is x;
thus,
total cost=(amount in pounds)*(price of one pound)
total cost=$8
amount=10 pounds
cost of one pound=x
thus the equation is;
8=10x
Answer:
y = -2/9 |X| - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not certain whether the -7 is part of the |X| or it's just out of the equation. But shifting an equation up or down is very intuitive.
If you want to move an equation up a certain unit, you just add that many units (positive) onto the end of an equation. The same goes for moving a unit down, where you subtract that many units you want to go down.
