We take the function as a sequence
Term 1 ⇒ 5
Term 2 ⇒ 4
Term 3 ⇒ 3.2
Between terms, there is a common ratio of ⁴/₅
We get it from here:
Term 2 / Term 1 =

Term 3 / Term 2 =

=

When a sequence has a common ratio between term, the sequence is a Geometric Sequence

Where

is the first term,

is the common ratio, and

is the term number
We have:

and

The formula for the function is
In math the fraction 5/6 means 5 and 6 tenths.
It is D you have subtract them
Step-by-step explanation:
As seen from the graph, the curve crosses the x-axis when x = -1 and x = 1. The y-intercept of the curve is -1.
Hence, the quadratic equation of the curve is y = x^2 - 1.

Answer: 37 degrees</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The angle of light coming in is the same as the angle of light bouncing out. Each angle is made with the dashed line as the diagram shows.
So angle RMI = 106 is bisected, i.e. divided in half, to get
- Angle RMN = 53
- Angle NMI = 53
since 106/2 = 53
Then notice that the horizontal dashed line is perpendicular to the vertical mirror. This means angle NMJ is a 90 degree angle and,
angle RMJ = (angle NMJ) - (angle RMN)
angle RMJ = 90 - 53
angle RMJ = 37 degrees
----------
In short: divide 106 in half to get 53, then subtract it from 90
