Answer:

The correct option is 3. The value of x is 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Figure A is dilated by a scale factor of 1/2 to form Figure B. It means both figure are similar and corresponding sides of similar figures are proportional.

\text{scale factor}=\frac{\text{Side of image}}{\text{Side of preimage}}

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{16}

Multiply both sides by 16.

\frac{16}{2}=x

8=x

Since scale factor is 1/2, so we can directly say that the side length of image is half of the corresponding side of preimage.

The length of x is 8 inches. Therefore the correct option is 3.

The table shows y as a function of x. Suppose a point is added to this table. Which choice gives a point that preserves the func
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

<em>A) (-5,7)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Functions and Relations</u>

A set of values A can have a relation with another set B as long as at least one element of A has at least one image in B. Functions are special relations where each element of A (the domain of the function) has one and only one image on B (the range of the function).

By looking at the options, we can see that x=9, x=-8, and x=-1 already have defined values in Y, so if we define another value for any of them the relation will stop being a function. The only possible choice to preserve the function is the option

\boxed{A)\ (-5,7)}

Answer:

0.25     Converges

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to expand our series so that we get the following:

\sum _{n=1}^{\infty \:}\frac{n}{4^n}+\frac{1}{4^{n+1}}

We can then use the series ratio test on each term. (L < 1 = absolutely convergent)

\sum _{n=1}^{\infty \:}\frac{n}{4^n}

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n}{4^{n}\\} =

⇒  converges

\sum _{n=1}^{\infty \:}\frac{1}{4^n^+1}

\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{n}{4^{n}^+1\\}

⇒  converges

converges + converges

= converges

~Hope this helps! Once again, sorry if my explanation is a bit confusing~
