Answer:
The 9th term would be 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the odd terms is 2 more than the previous. We do not even need to look at the even terms to find the 9th one.
2, odd, 4, odd, 6, odd, 8, odd, 10
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 3 = 4x,
x + 3 = 0,
x = -3
Sum = 20(1-(1/4)^5) / (1-1/4) = 26.64
This can be determined by finding the x-intercept. In doing so, we let y=0 to find the value of x.
y= 2x^2 -x -3
[0 = 2x^2 -x-3]÷2
0 = x^2 -1/2 x - 3/2
Complete the squares:
1/16 + 3/2 = x^2 - 1/2x + 1/16
25/16 = (x -1/4)^2
sqrt (25/16) = x - 1/4
+/- 5/4 = x - 1/4
Thus,
x = 1/4 + 5/4 = 3/2
x = 1/4 - 5/4 = -1
Thus, the graph crosses at x = 3/2 and x = -1.
Here is my answer. In this problem, you need to use the similarity of triangles. I hope this is helpful.
