Simplify the expression.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gnesinka [82]3 years ago

Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation: Before taking the absolute value of a number, always simplify what's inside the absolute value as much as possible.

So here we have -5 - 8 inside the absolute value which can be thought of as -5 + -8 or -13. So we have |-13| which is +13.

Remember, absolute value means distance from zero on a number line so the absolute value of any number will be the positive version of that number.

The first term in a geometric series is 64 and the common ratio is 0.75. Find the sum of the first 4 terms in the series.
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

195.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider geometric series  S(n) where initial term is a

So S(n)=a+ar^1+...ar^n

Factor out a

S(n)=a(1+r+r^2...+r^n)

Multiply by r

S(n)r=a(r+r^2+r^3...+r^n+r^n+1)

Subtract S(n) from S(n)r

Note that only 1 and rn^1 remain.

S(n)r-S(n)=a(r^n+1  -1)

Factor out S(n)

S(n)(r-1)=a(r^n+1  -1)

The formula now shows S(n)=a(r^n+1  -1)/(r-1)

Now use the formula for the problem

Graph the line that passes through the points (9,-8) and (9,6) and determine the
avanturin [10]

Answer:

<em>x = 9</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of equation of a line is expressed as y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

Note that the line does not have a slope and the x intercept of the line is a point where the line cuts the x axis. Hence the equation of the line will be expressed as x = c where c is the x intercept;

<em>From the graph, the x intercept =9. Hence the equation of the given line is x = 9</em>
