Answer:
C. symmetric with respect to the origin
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph must pass the vertical line test to be called the graph of a function. No function will ever be symmetrical with respect to the x-axis, because that would mean it fails the vertical line test.
An even function is symmetrical about the y-axis. An even function has the characteristic that ...
f(-x) = f(x) . . . . an even function
An odd function is symmetrical about the origin. An odd function has the characteristic that ...
f(-x) = -f(x)
__
The given function is f(x) = -1/x. Then the value of f(-x) is ...
f(-x) = -1/-x = 1/x = -f(x)
The given function is an odd function, so is symmetrical about the origin.
Remember that finding terms in a geometric sequence is done by multiplying the previous term by a common ratio . For example, we can say:
We have . To find
, let's multiply this term by
:
Now, let's use this to find all of our other terms:
Thus, our terms are 64, 80, 100, 125, and (625/4).
