Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the fifth term substitute n = 5 into the rule, that is

$A_{5}$ = 5² + 2 = 25 + 2 = 27

Which ordered pairs are in the solution set of the system of linear inequalities? y > x y < x + 1 (5, –2), (3, 1), (–4, 2)

steposvetlana [31]

To check which ordered pair (point) is in the solution set of the system of given linear inequalities y>x, y<x+1; we just need to plug given points into both inequalities and check if that point satisfies both inequalities or not. If any point satisfies both inequalities then that point will be in solution.

I will show you calculation for (5,-2)

plug into y>x

-2>5

which is clearly false.

plug into y<x+1

-2<5+1

or -2<6

which is also false.

hence (5,-2) is not in the solution.

Same way if you test all the given points then you will find that none of the given points are satisfying both inequalities.

Hence answer will be "No Solution from given choices".

Write an exponential equation in the form y = ab* whose graph passes through points (2, 18) and (5, 60.75).

DochEvi [55]

Let $y=ab^x,$ as described in the problem statement. Plugging in $x=2$ and $x=5$ gives us the equations $18=ab^2$ and $60.75=ab^5.$ Since $a,b$ are nonzero, we divide the second equation by the first to get $\frac{27}{8}=b^3,$ which means that $b=\frac{3}{2},$ after taking the cube root. Plugging this value for $b$ into the first equation, we now have $18=a(3/2)^2=\frac{9a}{4}.$ Solving gives $a=8,$ and our desired exponential equation is $\boxed{y=8\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)^x}.$
