Sequence: -4, 8, -16
rate of increase: -16/8 = -2
If you make A1 the first term in the sequence you must use (n-1) in the explicit formula. If you go backwards in the sequence to find A0 = 2 then you would use n.
The don't have A0 = 2 listed as an option so we use A1 = -4 and (n-1) terms.
An = -4(-2)^(n-1)
Solving for the 5th term A5, use n = 5
A5 = -4(-2)^(5-1)
A5 = -4(16)
A5 = -64
So the answer is B.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The 81° angle and angle 2 are corresponding angles so angle 2 must measure 99°. Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary angles so angle 1 must measure 81°.
First, let's break the worded equation up into two parts:
- "<span>4 times a number less than 6'
This is 4 * (6-x)
- "</span><span>8 more than twice that number"
This is 2x+8
Now combine these two expressions:
</span>4 * (6-x) = 2x+8
4 * (6-x) = 2 * (x+4)
2 * (6-x) = x+4
12-2x = x+4
-3x = -8
x = 8/3

Construct two angle bisectors of the triangle
Answer:
Option (D) is correct
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We have to contruct two angle bisectors of the triangle.
various steps to inscribe the circle in a triangle are
- First draw a triangle
- Draw angle bisector of one angle
- Draw angle bisector of another angle
- Extent these angle bisectors, where they meet that point will be called the incenter
- From incenter draw prependicular to any side of the triangle
- The length from the point where the prependicular touches the side of triangle to the point of incenter will be radius.
- Use this radius and draw the incircle.
