Answer:

500(.75)^{n}

Step-by-step explanation:

It is changing exponentially because if you are eating a fraction of the left over m & m's, that is a different amount each time so it can't be linear.

500(1-(1/4))^n

500(.75)^{n}

Given A = {x ∈ ℤ : 4|x} and B = {x ∈ ℤ : 2|x}. Prove A ⊆ B.
Rashid [163]

Let a ∈ A. Then a is some integer that is divisible by 4, so we can write a = 4k for some integer k.

We can simultaneously rewrite a as a = 2•2k, so 2 clearly divides a, which means a ∈ B as well.

Therefore A ⊆ B.

Which of the following is true about the sequence graphed below? (and Why)
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a₂ = 9

a₃ = a₂-1.5

a₄ = a₃-1.5

a₅ = a₄-1.5

etc.

The terms have a common difference of -1.5, so the sequence is arithmetic.

2x+5y=-21 , -2x+3y+-27
Elis [28]

Answer:

x=4.5 and y=  -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5y= -21

-2x+3y= -27

add the two equations: 8y= -48

y=-48/8= -6

sub for y in 2x+5y= -21

2x + 5(-6)=-21, 2x-30= -21

2x= -21+30= 9

x= 9/2=4.5
