Answer: -13</h3>
=======================================
Explanation:
g(-3) = 2 means x = -3 and y = 2 pair up together to form the point (-3,2)
g(1) = -4 means we have the point (1,-4)
Find the slope of the line through the two points (-3,2) and (1,-4)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-4-2)/(1-(-3))
m = (-4-2)/(1+3)
m = -6/4
m = -3/2
m = -1.5
The general slope intercept form y = mx+b turns into y = -1.5x+b after replacing m with -1.5
Plug in (x,y) = (-3,2) which is one of the points mentioned earlier and we end up with this new equation: 2 = -1.5*(-3) + b
Let's solve for b
2 = -1.5*(-3)+b
2 = 4.5 + b
2-4.5 = 4.5+b-4.5 .... subtract 4.5 from both sides
-2.5 = b
b = -2.5
Therefore, y = mx+b becomes y = -1.5x-2.5 meaning the g(x) function is g(x) = -1.5x-2.5
The last step is to plug in x = 7 and compute
g(x) = -1.5*x - 2.5
g(7) = -1.5*7 - 2.5
g(7) = -10.5 - 2.5
g(7) = -13
Answer:
The explicit form is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The explicit form of a geometric sequence is given by:

where an is the nth term, a is the first term of the sequence and r is the common ratio.
In this case:
a=162
The value of the common ratio is obtained by dividing one term by the previous term.
For the first and second terms:
108/162=2/3
For the second and third terms (In order to prove that 2/3 is the common ratio)
72/108=2/3
Therefore:
r=2/3
Replacing a and r in the formula:

Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is based on Secant Secant theorem.
Secant Secant theorem gives us the following formula:
(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC
From the above question we have the following parameters
AB = 5
BD = x
AC = 7.5
CE = 4.5
Hence,
(AB + BD)AB = (AC + CE).AC
(5 + x)5 = (7.5 + 4.5)7.5
25 + 5x = 90
Collect like terms
5x = 90 - 25
5x = 65
x = 65/5
x = 13
Answer:
The slope is .075 and the y intercept is -.125
Step-by-step explanation:
8y = .2(3x -5)
Distribute the .2
8y = .6x - 1
Divide by 8
8y/8 = .6x/8 -1/8
y = .075x -.125
This is in slope intercept form y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The slope is .075 and the y intercept is -.125
If the slope of AB = CD and BC = AD it's a parallelogram:
Slope of AB = 6+1 / -9+5 = -7/4
CD = -2-5 / 3+1 = -74
These are equal.
BC = 5-6 / -1 +9 = -1/8
AD = -2 +1 / 3+5 = -1/8
These are also equal so it is a parallelogram.
Now to find if the diagonals are perpendicular find the slope of the perpensicular points:
AC = 5 +1 / -1 +5 = 6/4 = 3/2
BD = 6+2 / -9 -3 = 8/-12 = -2/3
Because BD is the reciprocal of AC, this means they are perpendicular.
And because AB is not perpendicular to AD ( AB and AD are not reciprocals) it is a rhombus.
