Move the decimal twice to the right to get a decimal (it should start behind the 2 and end up in front of the 7)
For a fraction just put it over 100 72/100
The first term, a, is 2. The common ratio, r, is 4. Thus,
a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).
Check: What's the first term? Let n=1. Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8. Is that correct? No.
Try this instead:
a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1). Is this correct? Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2? 2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2. YES.
The desired explicit formula is a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.
He paid 3.19 per gallon both times......first time he bought 12.53 gallons....next time he bought 11.86 gallons
so ur expression is : 3.19(12.53 + 11.86)
Where’s the graph or whatever???
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, solve so that y is alone on its side of the equation by dividing both sides of the equation by 12.
12y=(-24)x
y=(-2)x
Therefore, the slope must be -2.
