Answer: The common ratio is -1/3
-----------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Pick any term to divide it by the previous term. I'm going to pick the second term and divide it by the first term.
r = common ratio
r = (term 2) divided by (term 1)
r = (4/9) divided by (-4/3)
r = (4/9) * (-3/4)
r = (4*(-3))/(9*4)
r = -12/36
r = -1/3
The common ratio is -1/3
This means you multiply each term by -1/3 to get the next term
For instance
term 2 = r*(term 1)
term 2 = (-1/3)*(-4/3)
term 2 = ((-1)*(-4))/(3*3)
term 2 = 4/9
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation: I think
Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.
Exact Form:
x=15/4
Decimal Form:
x=3.75
Mixed Number Form:
x=3 3/4
hope this helps
Answer: Choice C
h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
===========================================
Explanation:
When reflecting the function f(x) over the y axis, we replace every x with -x and simplify like so
f(x) = -x^4 - 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x + 5
f(-x) = -(-x)^4 - 2(-x)^3 + 3(-x)^2 - 4(-x) + 5
f(-x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5
Note the sign changes that occur for the terms that have odd exponents (the terms -2x^3 and -4x become +2x^3 and +4x); while the even exponent terms keep the same sign.
The reason why we replace every x with -x is because of the examples mentioned below
-----------
Examples:
The point (1,2) moves to (-1,2) after a y axis reflection
Similarly, (-5,7) moves to (5,7) after a y axis reflection.
As you can see, the y coordinate stays the same but the x coordinate flips in sign from negative to positive or vice versa. This is the direct reason for the replacement of every x with -x.
Answer:
So the perimeter is 2(16+x) or 32+2x. The area is 8(x+8) or 8x+64.
