Let, first term be a and common ratio is r.

So, \dfrac{a}{r}+\dfrac{a}{r^2}=96

Sum of series, S = \dfrac{a}{1-r}=500

a = 500( 1 - r )

a( \dfrac{1}{r}+\dfrac{1}{r^2})=96\\\\r=0.916

Therefore, the value of common ratio is 0.916 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

Find the value of<br> 3a²-4ab-26² when A= -1 and b-4
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

-657

Step-by-step explanation:

a= -1\\b= 4\\

Substituting the value of a and b

3a^{2}-4ab-26^{2}  \\3(-1)^{2} -4(-1)(4)-676\\3-4(-4)-676\\3+16-676\\19-676\\-657

The value of    3a²-4ab-26²  is -657

The equation below can be used to find the length of a foot or forearm when you know one or the other. (length of the foot) = 0.
3241004551 [841]
This is child's play. 

So, basically:
Y=Length of foot
X= Length of your forearm. 
This is simple. Your equation is Y=0.860x + 3.302
So, if you have a forearm (x) that is 17 inches long, then plug in x as 17. This leaves you to evaluate for Y.
New equation: Y=0.860(17) +3.302
Work it out, you get: Y=14.62 + 3.302
Work that out, you get: Y= 17.922 inches long. 
And of course, Y is the foot.

So, your answer: If the forearm is 17 inches long, then the foot is 17.922 inches long. Simple.

So, part 2:
Rate of change. Well, you need slope then, because that's the same thing.
Y=mx+b, Where m=slope
Your answer turns to be 0.860 inches per length of arm, for rate of change.

Skipping the data, as that's only something you'd know.

Yes, it is indeed a function. There can't be any exponents greater than 1 on the placeholder, and it's obviously not a straight line if you plug it in. 

So yeah, it's a function.

~Hope this helps m8
