Answer:

y = -2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use slope intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept:

Plug in the slope and y intercept:

y = mx + b

y = -2x + 1

So, the equation of the line is y = -2x + 1

Find the common difference for the sequence below. 1/4, 5/16, 3/8,..

vredina [299]

Answer:

the common difference of the sequence is $(\frac{1}{16})$

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence of numbers is said to be in arithmetic progression of each term of the sequence has same common difference.

Now, here first term a1 = 1/4

Second term a2 = 5/16

Third term a3 = 3/8

Now, Common difference (d) = a2 - a1 = a3 - a2

Now, a2 - a1 = $\frac{5}{16} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{5 - 4}{16} = \frac{1}{16}$

Now, a3 - a2 = $\frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{16} = \frac{6 - 5}{16} = \frac{1}{16}$

Hence, the common difference of the sequence is $(\frac{1}{16})$
