Answer:

first term = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sₙ = (a₁ * (1 - rⁿ)) / (1 - r)     a₁: first term     r: common ratio     n: terms

15624 = (a₁ * (1 - 5⁶)) / (1 - 5)

          = (a₁ * -15624) / -4

a₁ x (-15624) =15624 x (-4)

a₁ = 4

check: 4+20+100+500+2500+12500 =15624

Answer:

8h + 15 = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

The base fee is 15 so you shouldn't multiply the hours by it.

The question states 8 per hour which means that you should multiply the 8 by hours and add on the base fee which is 15.

The endpoints of PQ are P(2, 0) and Q (4, 2). Find the coordinates of midpoint PQ.
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parameterize the ellipse as (acos∙,bsin∙). Take points P:=(acosp,bsinp) and Q:=(acosq,bsinq) on the ellipse, with midpoint M:=(P+Q)/2.

If |PQ|=2k, then

a2(cosp−cosq)2+b2(sinp−sinq)2=4k2

The coordinates of M are

xy==a2(cosp+cosq)b2(sinp+sinq)

The point (-7,4) is reflected over the line x=-3. Then the resulting point is reflected over the line y=x. Where is the point lo
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

  (4, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the first reflection is over the vertical line x=-3, the y-coordinate remains the same. The x-coordinate of A' will make the point (-3, 4) on the line of reflection be the midpoint between A and A':

  (-3, 4) = (A +A')/2

  2(-3, 4) -A = A' = (-6-(-7), 8 -4) = (1, 4)

The reflection over the line y=x simply interchanges the two coordinate values:

  A'' = (4, 1)
