Answer:
2,125,760
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term (a) is 8
The fourth term is 216
Hence the sum of the first 12 term can be calculated as follows
= 8-8(3)^12/1-3
= 8-24^12/-2
= 2,125,760
The sum of first 12 terms is 2,125,760
the discriminant formula is b^2-4ac
so plug the values from each equation into the formula and solve, the result is the value of the discriminant
if the number is negative, there are no real roots/x-int
if it is 0 there is one real root/x-intercepts
if it is positive it has 2 real roots/x-int
and to find the actual solutions you have to plug the values into the quadratic formula
5.5hours to drive264 miles
7 hours to drove (264÷5.5)× 7 =....
7 × __ = 94
Divide by 7 on both side.
__ = 94 ÷ 7
Answer = 13 3/7
