Answer:

width = 18.97 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the smallest width of the box to fit the bat, we need to put the bat in the diagonal of the box.

The diagonal of the box is given by:

diagonal^2 = length^2 + width^2 + height^2

Then, using the diagonal = 36 inches, length = 30 inches and height = 6 inches, we have:

36^2 = 30^2 + width^2 + 6^2

1296 = 900 + width^2 + 36

width^2 = 360

width = 18.97 inches

Enter a recursive rule for the geometric sequence. 10, −80, 640, −5120, ...<br><br> a(1)=<br> a(n)=
Liula [17]
The recursive formula would be:
a_1=10&#10;\\a_{n}=a_{n-1} \times (-8)

This is because the first term, a₁, is 10.  A recursive rule is dependent upon the term before it (a(n-1)) and the common ratio.  The common ratio, or the number that each term is multiplied by, is -8.

Maria compared the slope of the function f(x)=(-6x-21) to the slope of the linear function that fits the values in the table bel
raketka [301]

Answer:

b. both functions have a negative slope

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=-6x-21


This function is of the form y=mx+b, where m=-6 is the slope and b=-21 is the y-intercept.


We can also determine the slope of the function in the table using any two points, say (0,7)\:and\:(2,6).


The slope formula is given by,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.


If (x_1,y_1)=(0,7)\:and\:(x_2,y_2)=(2,6), then,

m=\frac{6-7}{2-0}


m=-\frac{1}{2}.


We can see that both functions have a negative slope.


The correct answer is B.
