1 answer:

7 0

For an arithmetic sequence, the nth term is the first term plus (n-1)×the differece
the first term is 28, the difference between each adjacent number is 8
so -36=(28)+8(n-1)
8(n-1)=64
n-1=8
n=9
the 9th term is -36

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

x = 25% percent decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we will use percentage calculation and make proportion:

Initial value 56 points is worth 100%

Second value 56 - 42 = 14 points of decrease is worth x%

56 : 14 = 100 : x

When we multiply external and internal members we get:

56 · x = 14 · 100 => x = 1400/56 = 25%

x = 25% percent decrease

Which value represents the horizontal translation from the graph of the parent function f(x) = x^2 to the graph of the function

Vsevolod [243]

Translation by h (right) and k (up)
g(x)=f(x-h)+k
=f(x-4)^2+2
so h=4, k=2
horizontal translation (to the right) is h=+4, but is shown as -4 for the translation value.
