Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term formula of a geometric sequence is
= a 
where a is the first term and r the common ratio
Using the second and fourth term, then
ar = 6 → (1)
ar³ = 54 → (2)
Divide (2) by (1)
= 
= 9
r² = 9 ⇒ r = 
= 3 → C

Answer:
Distributive Property
Step-by-step explanation:
They distributed the -3 to x and 4. In this case, to distribute the -3, you multiply it to each term.
-3 × x = -3x.
-3 × 4 = -12.
-3x - 12
Answer: $0.95
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we simply have to add all amounts raised by the government, the manufacturer, and the retailer.
Mathematically speaking:
$0.20+$0.60+$0.15 = $0.95
So, a consumer pays $0.95 more per bottle of soda.

Zeros are the x values which make the function equal to zero. Set it up as you would for a binomial with a constant multiplier "k" to account for the y-intercept (0, -5) given.
f(x) = k(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)
Use the y-intercept (0,-5) to solve for k.
-5 = k(0-2)(0-3)(0-5)
-5 = -30k
-5/-30 = k
1/6 = k
The cubic polynomial function is then ..
f(x) = (1/6)(x-2)(x-3)(x-5)
Linear factors are the linear (line) expressions you can factor out of the polynomial. They are (x-2), (x-3) and (x-5).
