Which best describes the relationship between the successive terms in the sequence shown?

1 answer:

6 0

<span>You almost got it. Be careful with how the question is worded. A "common difference" between these sequential numbers already indicates subtraction. So you have to answer with what number is being subtracted from each number in order to equal the next. 9 - 10 is -1. Next, -1 - 10 is -11. Thus, the common difference between successive terms here is 10. Next, the difference between -11 and -21 is 10. You could continue the sequence: -21 - 10 = -31 and so on.</span>

Find the slope of the line passing through points -2, 2 and 2, 0

Ymorist [56]

<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>

We can find the slope by using the slope formula. Also know rise over run.

$\large \bold{m = \frac{rise}{run} }$

$m = \frac{2 - 0}{ - 2 - 2} \\ m = \frac{2}{ - 4} \\ m = - \frac{1}{2}$

From the slope-intercept y = mx+b.

$\large \bold {m = slope } \\ \large \bold {b = y - intercept }$

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

$\large \boxed { - \frac{1}{2} }$

Vesna [10]

Answer:

For a flag with 2 different colours, there are 8 possible colours for the first colour to be chosen from and 7 possible colours (excluding the first colour already chosen) for the second colour to be chosen from, given that colours are different. Hence there are a total of 8 x 7 = 56 possible flags to be created.
