The answer for this problem is -8x+2
For the given quadratic equation we only have a maximum at y = 18.
<h3>
How to find the extrema of the given function?</h3>
Here we have:

Notice that this is a quadratic equation of negative leading coefficient.
Then we have a maximum at the vertex, and both arms tend to negative infinity as x tends to infinity or negative infinity.
The vertex is at:
x = -(-4)/(2*(-2)) = -1
The maximum is:

Let x be the value of the third term.
Since it's a geometric sequence, then:
Third term/Second term = Fourth term/Third term
x/20 = 11.25/x
Cross multiplication:
x^2 = 225
x = 15
So since the ratio is constant, then it is
x/20 = 15/20 = 3/4
So the common ratio is 3/4 or 0.75.
Answer:
x < 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 10 < 6 - 5x ( add 5x to both sides )
6x - 10 < 6 ( add 10 to both sides )
6x < 16 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x <
, that is
x <
