Slope intercepts do.
Linear equations are straight lines, not curves.
Solution sets are for inequalities.
Linear equations never have a squared value, that would make it exponential.
Part A
Either Nathan picked 0, or Sonia picked 0, or both.
This is because multiplying nonzero numbers together gets a nonzero result. So one of them must have picked 0.
==============================================================
Part B
It's the same idea as part A. It's not clear what the nonzero values are, but one (or more) person picked 0 as their secret number.
If they picked something like 1, 2 and 3, then the product is 1*2*3 = 6 which is nonzero and the product is larger than the three original values. This is because each value is 1 or larger. If someone picked a small decimal value like 0.1 then 0.1*2*3 = 0.6 is the product. It's closer to 0, but not 0 itself.
==============================================================
Part C
Zero Product Property:
If m*n = 0, then either m = 0 or n = 0 or both.
This idea says that if the product of two numbers is 0, then at least one of the numbers must be 0 itself. It can be extended to three or more numbers.
This idea is useful when it comes to solving factored quadratic equations.
In the case of 2x^2 + 5x - 12, it factors to (2x-3)(x+4)
So using the zero product property, we can solve the quadratic equation like this
2x^2 + 5x - 12 = 0
(2x-3)(x+4) = 0
2x-3 = 0 or x+4 = 0
2x = 3 or x = -4
x = 3/2 = 1.5 or x = -4
The use of the zero product property happens in step 3
2.5 meters is equal to 250 centimeters.
250 - 60 - 35 - 90 = 65
There would be 65 centimeters or .65 meter
Answer:
an = 2(−4)^(n − 1); all integers where n ≥ 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation has the form ...
an = a1(r)^(n-1) . . . . . where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio.
The first term is given as 2, and the ratio will be the ratio of the first two terms:
r = (-8)/(2) = -4
Terms are numbered starting with n=1, so the formula is ...
an = 2(-4)^(n-1) for n≥1
yes it is correct kip it up
