Answer:

The top choice is the answer. a1=7; an= 3*a_(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by finding out what the terms are multiplied by. It is a geometric sequence so multiplication is involved.

Take the 3rd term (63) and divide it by the second term.

63/21 = 3

What this means is that each term in the sequence is multiplied by 3 to get to the next term.

The first term is 7

So the answer is an = 3* a_n-1

The answer must be the top one. See if it works.

a2 = 3*a_(2 -1 )

a2 = 3 * a1

a2 = 3 * 7

a2 = 21 which it does.

Determine the equation of the line that passes through the point (7, -23)and is perpendicular to the line y=1/3x-6Enter your ans
marishachu [46]

We have a line y = 1/3x -6

We want a line that is perpendicular to this line

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

1/3 * m = -1

3 * 1/3 *m = -1 * 3

m = -3

The slope of the perpendicular line is -3

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -3x+b

We have a point on the line ( 7 ,-23)

Substitute this point into the equation

-23 = -3(7)+b

-23 = -21+b

Add 21 to each side

-23+21 = -21+21+b

-2 = b

y = -3x-2

In slope intercept form, the line perpendicular passing through (7,-23) is

y = -3x-2

Death Valley has an altitude that is below sea level. Which situation describes a hiker in Death Valley who hikes until he reach
Firdavs [7]

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it logically: A and C are not below sea level so you can cross them out. And B doesn't work because if you decrease -10 by 10 you get -20. So, D is correct.
