Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is not an arithmetic sequence. For a sequence to be arithmetic, the difference between consecutive terms is a constant number which is termed as the common difference.

This means that the difference between the second term and the first term must be equal to the difference between the third term and the second term.

In the sequence above, the first term is 10. The difference between the first and second term is 15. When the first term is subtracted from the second, what we get is 5.

Now, let’s look at the third term and the second term. The difference here is 21 minus 15 which equals 6. Now we can see that the common difference is not constant and thus we conclude that the series is not arithmetic.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope- intercept form is y = mx + c

Rearrange the given inequalities into this form

x + y ≤ 55 ( subtract x from both sides )

y ≤ - x + 55

-------------------------------------------------

60x + 40y > 600 ( subtract 60x from both sides )

40y > - 60x + 600 ( divide all terms by 40 )

y > - $\frac{3}{2}$ x + 15

Solve: (4p^3) x (-3p)

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

-12p ^4

Step-by-step explanation:

4p^3 * -3p

-3 * 4 = -12

p^3 *p

use the math rule :

a^n * a^m = a^(n+m)

therefore

p^3 * p^1 = p ^(3+1)

= p^4

= <u>-12p ^4</u>

I HAVE ASKED THIS THREE TIMES. PLEASE ANSWER <3

Andru [333]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For Question 3, we are simply taking an input for the function, as a value of x and solving the equation. For part a, we substitute 3/14 into the first function, and solve it:

f(x) = 7(3/14) + 2

f(x) = 21/14 + 2

f(x) = 49/14

f(x) = 7/2

For part b, we take the input of -3 into the second function and solve the equation:

h(x) = 4(-3)^2

h(x) = 4(9)

h(x) = 36

For Question 4, we are simply solving this equation by isolating the x variable. First, we simplify the equation to 4-5x+15+2x = -2 and simplify this again to -3x+19 = -2. Now, we can subtract 19 from both sides of the equation to get -3x = -21. Lastly, we isolate the x variable by dividing both sides of this equation by -3, to get x = 7.
