Answer:
Step 3 they took the square root incorrectly
Step-by-step explanation:
5 ( x-2)^2 +6 = 86
Subtract 6 from each side
5 ( x-2)^2 +6 -6= 86-6
5 ( x-2)^2 = 80
Divide each side by 5
5 ( x-2)^2 /5 = 80/5
(x-2)^2 = 16
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-2)^2) = ±sqrt(16)
x-2 = ±4
Answer: D, 50
y = kx <span>y = 20 and x = 0.4
</span>
What you will do: You will plug in your y and your x.
Your equation should look like: 20=k(0.4)
Next: What you will do is divide each side of your equal sign by 0.4 so you will get your k alone.
You would get: k=50
HOPE THIS HELPS! ^_^
The first term, a, is 2. The common ratio, r, is 4. Thus,
a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).
Check: What's the first term? Let n=1. Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8. Is that correct? No.
Try this instead:
a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1). Is this correct? Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2? 2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2. YES.
The desired explicit formula is a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.
Your answer would be -35.
<span>C would be correct. Statistics and measures taken from raw data help the researcher understand whether or not they have a hypothesis that has held up under testing. Continual support for the hypothesis (and others of the like) can move the concept closer to the category of "theory" or "law," the gold standard in science research.</span>
