Answer:

The slope of a line is rise over run. Learn how to calculate the slope of the line in a graph by finding the change in y and the change in x.

The vertical change between two points is called the rise, and the horizontal change is called the run. The slope equals the rise divided by the run: Slope =riserun Slope = rise run . You can determine the slope of a line from its graph by looking at the rise and run.

Write the explicit formula

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is no single number we can add to one number in the sequence to get to the next one, this is not arithmetic. That means it's geometric, if it's a sequence at all. To get from 2 to 6 we multiply by 3. To get from 6 to 18 we multiply by 3. To get from 18 to 54 we multiply by 3. Therefore, this is in fact geometric and the common ratio is 3. The standard form of a geometric explicit formula is

$A_n=a_1(r)^{n-1$ where n is the position of a number in the sequence, a1 is the first number in the sequence, and r is the common ratio. We have then

a1 = 2 and r = 3. Therefore, the explicit formula is

$A_n=2(3)^{n-1$ and you can use this to find the value of any number in the sequence. Very handy; much more so than the recursive formula, which requires that all the numbers in a sequence be found in order in order to get to a desired value.
