Answer:

The slope is $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

(8, 7) is (x1, y1)

(4, 5) is (x2, y2)

Plug in the values:

$\frac{5-7}{4-8}$

solve:

$\frac{-2}{-4}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

The slope is $\frac{1}{2}$

Write a rule for a geometric sequence that has -6 as its first term and a common ratio of 2. What is the tenth term of this sequ

slega [8]

The general form of the geometric sequence is $a_{n} = a_{1} (r) ^{n-1}$ , where a sub n is the number term you're looking for (we're looking for the tenth term). a sub 1 is the first term in the sequence (ours is -6), r is the common ratio, and n-1 is the numbered term you're looking for minus 1. Our formula then looks like this: $a_{10} =-6(2) ^{10-1}$ . Simplify it to $a_{10} =-6(2)^9$ . Take 2 to the 9th power then multiply it by -6 to get -3072. C is your answer.

Solve the inequality (13+2x) -4>39 Express the solution in set notation

SashulF [63]

Answer:

x > 15

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify both sides of the inequality

2x + 9 > 39

subtract 9 from both sides

2x + 9 - 9 > 39 -9

2x > 30

divide both sides by 2

2x/2 > 30/2

x > 15
