Answer:

f(1) = 14000

f(n) = f(n - 1) · 0.9 , for n ≥ 2

The next term in the sequence is 10206 .

Step-by-step explanation:

First we try to find the type of sequence it is.

Is there a common difference?

12600 - 14000 = -1400

11340 - 12600 = -1260

There is no common difference, so it is not an arithmetic sequence.

12600/14000 = 0.9

11340/12600 = 0.9

There is a common ratio, so this is a geometric sequence.

Each term is 0.9 times the previous term.

The next term is:

11340 * 0.9 = 10206

Answer:

f(1) = 14000

f(n) = f(n - 1) · 0.9 , for n ≥ 2

The next term in the sequence is 10206 .

Find the distance between points M(-1,-10) and (-12,-3). round to the nearest tenth

Kitty [74]

The formula of the distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

We have the points (-1, -10) and (-12, -3). Substitute:

$d=\sqrt{(-12-(-1))^2+(-3-(-10))^2}=\sqrt{(-11)^2+7^2}=\sqrt{121+49}=\sqrt{170}$

$\sqrt{170}\approx13.04$

Answer: d ≈ 13.0

I’ll mark brainliest

enyata [817]

Answer:

$\text{A. }y=1.30x+1.50$

Step-by-step explanation:

The two ringtones will cost her a total of $0.75\cdot 2=1.50$ and is a fixed amount. The relationship between the cost and number of songs only is $y=1.30x$ and therefore the answer is $\boxed{\text{A. }y=1.30x+1.50}$ . You can also directly find the answer by finding the y-intercept (in this case $1.50$ ), as no other answer choices include the term $1.50$ , so A must be the correct answer.

If f(x)=6x^2+4x-11, then f(-5)=?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

F(-5)=6(5*5)+4(-5)-11
f(-5)=6(25)+-20+-11
f(-5)=150+20-11
f(-5)=130-11=119

Please show your work !!!!!!!!!!!!

dedylja [7]

Answer:

$(3.4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equation is $f(x)=-2(x-3)^2+4$
Now there are 2 ways you can do this, I'll show you the shortcut
If you have an equation like this, just take the value in parenthesis and equate it to zero
$x-3=0.x=3$ is the x of the vertex
Put this back into the equation
$f(x)=-2(x-3)^2+4\\x=3\\f(3)=-2(3-3)^2+4\\f(3)=-2(0)^2+4=4$ this is the y

Help pls IM DONE I CANT DO THISS

MatroZZZ [7]

Let’s say (5, 3) is Point A, (5, -4) is Point B, and (8, 3) is Point C. If reflected into the y axis, you would simply just make the x signs the opposite of what they already are. Therefore Point A being (-5, 3), Point B being (-5, 4), and Point C being (-8, 3).
