Answer:
Ok! When given points, to find the slope, you would use this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1. Let me demonstrate. In this set to find the slope with the coordinates (10,8) and (14,20), the y2 value is 20, and the y1 value is 8, and the x2 value is 14, and the y1 value is 10. So, your equation would look like this: (20-8)/(14-10), which simplifies to 12/4, or 3! So the slope is three, and that's how you do that when using an equation. OR, you could graph them, but that isn't too reliable so I do not recommend trying it, since you may not create the right slope.
Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
68 cents!
Step-by-step explanation:
9.95 * 0.068 = $0.6766.
Rounded to the nearest hundreth that is 0.68.
That means the tax rate rounds to 68 cents.
Answer: Choice A) -312,500
=====================================
The long way to find the answer is to multiply each term by -5 until you've generated 8 terms total.
4 is the first term
-20 is the second term (4 times -5 = -20)
100 is the third term (-20 times -5 = 100)
100 times -5 = -500 which is the fourth term
-500 times -5 = 2500 which is the fifth term
2500 times -5 = -12500 which is the sixth term
-12500 times -5 = 62500 which is the seventh term
62500 times -5 = -312500 which is the eigth term
---------------------
A shortcut is to use the formula below
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
Plug in a = 4, r = -5 and n = 8
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
a(8) = 4*(-5)^(8-1)
a(8) = 4*(-5)^7
a(8) = 4*(-78125)
a(8) = -312,500
and we get the same answer
