Answer:

5,20,80,320

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 5

an = 4 an-1

Let n = 2

a2 = 4 * a1 = 4*5 = 20

Let n = 3

a3 = 4 * a2 = 4*20 = 80

Let n = 4

a4 = 4 * a3 = 4*80 = 320

What is the y-intercept of the line y= -6x -3?

inn [45]

Answer:

y = -3 or (0,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

y intercept is when x is 0 so substitute 0 for x:

y=-6(0)-3=0-3=-3

y = -3

Give the slope of any line that is parallel to the line y = -7x + 2

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Slope of Parallel Line: -7

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of parallel lines will ALWAYS have the same slope. Perpendicular lines will have complete opposite slopes, for example, the slope of a line perpendicular to this one would be 1/7. If the slope is positive, the other slope will be negative and vice versa. For perpendicular lines, you also have to flip the fractions.

Please help me with 10 and 11

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

10. 2x+y

11. x^2-15x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

10. when u add 7x+3y and 4x+4y you will get 11x+7y. 13x+8y minus 11x+7y will be 2x+y

11. when u add 3x^2+7x+1 and x^2-x+1 u will get 4x^2+6x+2. 5x^2-9x+5 minus 4x^2+6x+2 will be x^2-15x+3

5x+5y=-30 find the x and y intercept

Masja [62]

<em>The x and y intercept of 5x + 5y = -30 are (-6, 0) and (0, -6) respectively.</em>

<h2 /><h2>Explanation:</h2>

The Standard Form of the equation of a line is given by:

$Ax+By=C \\ \\ A,B,C \ Real \ Constants \ and \ A>0$

So:

$5x+5y=-30$

is written in Standard Form. The x and y intercepts are:

$x-intercept: \ (x,0) \\ \\ y-intercept: \ (0,y)$

So:

FOR X-INTERCEPT:

$Let's \ set: \\ y=0 \\ \\ 5x+5(0)=-30 \\ \\ Isolating \ x: \\ \\ 5x=-30 \\ \\ x=-\frac{30}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{x=-6}$

FOR Y-INTERCEPT:

$Let's \ set: \\ x=0 \\ \\ 5(0)+5y=-30 \\ \\ Isolating \ x: \\ \\ 5y=-30 \\ \\ y=-\frac{30}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{y=-6}$

Finally,<em> the x and y intercept of 5x + 5y = -30 are (-6, 0) and (0, -6) respectively.</em>

Compare 6.23 * 10^14 and 8.912 * 10^12

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

623,000,000,000,000 > 8,912,000,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

8.912·10^12

The exponent is 12, making it 10 to the power of 12. As the exponent is positive, the solution is a number greater than the origin or base number. To find our answer, we move the decimal to the right 12 time(s):

8.912 -> 8,912,000,000,000

6.23·10^14

The exponent is 14, making it 10 to the power of 14. As the exponent is positive, the solution is a number greater than the origin or base number. To find our answer, we move the decimal to the right 14 time(s):

6.23 -> 623,000,000,000,000
