Compute successive differences of the terms.
If they are all the same, the sequence is arithmetic and the common difference is the difference you have found.
If successive pairs of differences have the same ratio, the sequence is geometric and the common ratio is the ratio you have determined.
Example of arithmetic sequence:
1, 3, 5, 7
Successive differences are 3-1 = 2, 5-3 = 2, 7-5 = 2. All the differences are 2, which is the common difference of the sequence.
Example of geometric sequence:
1, -3, 9, -27
Successive differences are -3-1 = -4, 9-(-3) = 12, -27-9 = -36. These are not the same, so the sequence is not arithmetic. Ratios of successive pairs of differences are 12/-4 = -3, -36/12 = -3. These are the same, so the sequence is geometric with common ratio -3.
Answer:
(0,20)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) we can represent the situation as coordinates
lets have # of texts be "x" variable
lets have bill be "y" as the y variable is always the dependant variable and the cost of the phone bill is dependant upon the number of texts so
y=mx+b-slope-intercept form
coordinates: (50,25) and (100,30)
slope: (30-25)/(100-50)
5/50=1/10
hence slope=1/10
y=1/10x+b
substitute in a coordinate pair into this equation
25=50*1/10+b
25=5+b
b=20
hence y intercept is (0,20)
Answer:
The output of the function y = -6x + 8 when the input is x = 20 is -112.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -6x + 8
Input the value x = 20.
y = -6(20) + 8
Multiply -6 and 20.
y = -120 + 8
Add -120 and 8.
y = -112.
6 4/5 + 6 4/5 + 2 2/3 + 2 2/3 = 18 14/15
