Step-by-step explanation:k ask ur parent/teacher
It looks like it goes through (0,-3) and (1,2), so the gradient is (change in y)/(change in x) ->
(-3-2)/(0-1) = 5
So y=5x+b
Then as we know it passes the y axis at (0,-3) so b= -3
So we have y=5x-3
Let's calculate r of this G.P: (-20)/(4) = - 5(100)/(-20) = - 5So r = -5
The formula to find the nth term of a GP is;
a(n) = a(r)ⁿ⁻¹
<u />a₆ = a(r)⁶⁻¹
a₆ = 4(-5)⁵ = -12500<u />
Just subtract 622 feet from 486 feet to get the change in elevation. The result will be negative because your friend's house is at a lower elevation than yours.
Now find the mean change in elevation per mile by dividing (486 ft - 622 ft) by 4 miles:
-136 ft
----------- = -34 ft/mile
4 mi
