6 0

Answer:x-intercepts (0,2) ; (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 5x + 6 =0

(x-2)(x-3) = 0

[-2 and -3 was the factors of 6, which make them equal to -5 when them add].

x-2=0 x-3=0

x=2 x=3

so x-intercepts (0,2) ; (0,3)

Find an for the arithmetic series with s16 = -288 And a1 =-21

Maru [420]

If $d$ is the common difference between terms in the sequence $\{a_n\}$ , then

$a_1=-21$
$a_2=a_1+d=-21+d$
$a_3=a_2+d=-21+2d$
...
$a_n=a_{n-1}+d=\cdots=-21+(n-1)d$

You're told that $S_{16}=-288$ (the sum of the first 16 terms in the sequence, presumably). Well, we know that

$S_{16}=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{16}a_n=\sum_{n=1}^{16}(-21+(n-1)d)$
$S_{16}=\displaystyle(-21-d)\sum_{n=1}^{16}1+d\sum_{n=1}^{16}n$

Recall that

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^kn=\frac{k(k+1)}2$

so that we have

$-288=16(-21-d)+\dfrac{16(16+1)}2d\implies d=\dfrac25$

So we get

$\begin{cases}a_1=-21\\\\a_n=-21+\dfrac25(n-1)\end{cases}$

Answer: Maturation

Step-by-step explanation:Internal validity is a type of validity that establishes a cause and effect relationship,this type of validity tries to eliminate alternative explanation for a Discovery.

One of the threats to internal validity is MATURATION.

MATURATION is the type of threat occuring during experiment to prove a particular Discovery as shown by the question where the police officer shot and killed someone against the intention of the experiment.
