Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like the third term  should be -36.

The sequence is geometric.

The common ratio is -54/-81 =  -36/-54 = -24/-36 = 2/3 .

The sum of the first 5 terms is

(-81) * (1 - (2/3)^5) / (1 - 2/3)

= -81 * 211/243 * 3

= -211.

The graph below shows the function f(x)=x-3/x2-2x-3. Which statement is true?
BARSIC [14]
1. Domain.

We have x^2-2x-3 in the denominator, so:

x^2-2x-3\neq0\\\\(x^2-2x+1)-4\neq0\\\\(x-1)^2-4\neq0\\\\(x-1)^2-2^2\neq0\qquad\qquad[\text{use }a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)]\\\\(x-1-2)(x-1+2)\neq0\\\\
(x-3)(x+1)\neq0\\\\\boxed{x\neq3\qquad\wedge\qquad x\neq-1}

So there is a hole or an asymptote at x = 3 and x = -1 and we know, that answer B) is wrong.

2. Asymptotes:

f(x)=\dfrac{x-3}{x^2-2x-3}=\dfrac{x-3}{(x-3)(x+1)}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{x+1}}

We have only one asymptote at x = -1 (and hole at x = 3), thus the correct answer is A)

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Problem One (left panel)

<em><u>Question A</u></em>

  • The y intercept happens when x = 0
  • That being said, the y intercept is 50. It was moving when the timing began.

<em><u>Question B</u></em>

The rate of change = (56 - 52)/(3 - 1) = 4/2 = 2  miles / hour^2 (you have a slight acceleration.

<em><u>Question C</u></em>

  • 60 = a + (n-1)d
  • 60 =  50 + (n - 1)*2
  • 10/2 = (n - 1)*2/2
  • 5 = n - 1
  • 6 = n

The way I have done it the domain is n from 1 to 6

Question 2 (Right Panel)

<em><u>Question A</u></em>

The equation for the table is f(x) = 3x - 3 which was derived simply by putting all three points into y = ax + b and solving.

  • f(0) = ax + b
  • -3 = a*0) + b
  • b = - 3
  • So far what you have is
  • f(x) = ax - 3
  • f(-1) = a*(-1) - 3           but we know (f(-1)) = -6
  • - 6 = a(-1) - 3             add 3 to both sides
  • -6 +3 = a(-1) -3 + 3
  • -3 = a*(-1)                  Divide by - 1
  • a = 3
  • f(x) = 3x - 3               Answer for f(x)
  • The slope of f(x) = the coefficient in front of the x
  • f(x) has a slope of 3
  • g(x) has a slope of 4

<em><u>Part B</u></em>

  • f(x) has a y intercept of - 3
  • g(x) has a y intercept of -5
  • f(x) has the greater y intercept.
  • -3 > - 5
