You have:

a_1=3.5,\\ \\a_2=13,\\ \\a_3=41.5,\\ \\a_4=127.

Find

a_2-a_1=13-3.5=9.5,\\ \\a_3-a_2=127-41.5=28.5=9.5\cdot 3,\\ \\a_4-a_3=127-41.5=85.5=28.5\cdot 3=9.5\cdot 3^2.

This gives you the rule how to find next terms:

1.

a_5-a_4=9.5\cdot 3^3,\\ \\a_5-127=256.5,\\ \\a_5=127+256.5=383.5.

2.

a_6-a_5=9.5\cdot 3^4,\\ \\a_6-383.5=769.5,\\ \\a_6=383.5+769.5= 1153.

3.

a_7-a_6=9.5\cdot 3^5,\\ \\a_7-1153=2308.5,\\ \\a_7=1153+2308.5=3461.5.

Answer: next 3 terms are 383.5, 1153 and 3461.5.

Find the slope of the line that passes through (10, 3) and (7, 11).
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Slope of the line is -\frac{8}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(10, 3) and (7, 11)

Here,

x1 = 10 and y1 = 3

x2 = 7 and y2 = 11

Slope of a line is given by

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m = \frac{11-3}{7-10}\\\\m = \frac{8}{-3}

Therefore,

Slope of the line is -\frac{8}{3}.

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

if you sub in 8 as the value for y, you get

-4x - 8 = 24

add 8 on both sides to simplify

-4x = 32

divide both sides by -4

x = -8
