Answer:
(-2, 6.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Wayne can follow the line from (-2, 0) up to where it crosses the graphed line. The crossing point is approximately halfway between 6 and 7 on the graph, so can be considered to be 6.5.
If we put x=-2 into the equation and evaluate, we get ...
... y = (-3/4)(-2) +5 = 6/4 +5 = (1 1/2) +5 = 6 1/2
Thus the solution is (-2, 6 1/2).
It is dividing by 2 each time so the number of sales is 545.
In the sequence, the numbers are going down by -3. So the nth term must start with -3n. To get from -3 to 4 you must add 7. This makes the nth term -3n+7.
Answer:
57.3
Step-by-step explanation:
just rounded up one
Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):
x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number. x+9 = 10, so x = 9.
Think of it this way: there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.
Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.
The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:
sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55 (answer)
