This is a geometric sequence with a=2, r= -3/2.
Therefore,
a₁ = 2
a₂ = 2*(-3/2) = -3
a₃ = 2*(-3/2)² = 9/2 = 4.5
a₄ = 2(-3/2)³ = -27/4 = -6.75
a₅ = 2(-3/2)⁴ = 81/8 = 10.125

Answer:
In fractions, the first five terms are
     2, -3, 9/2, -27/4, 81/8
In decimals, the first five terms are
     2.000, -3.000, 4.500, -6.750, 10.125

What is the midpoint M of that line segment?
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: The midpoint M is located at (6,4)

==============================================

Explanation:

First focus on just the x coordinates of points S and T, which are 5 and 7 respectively. Add them up to get 5+7 = 12. Then divide that in half to get 12/2 = 6. This is the x coordinate of the midpoint.

Repeat for the y coordinates of S and T. First add up the values: 7+1 = 8. Then divide by 2 to get 8/2 = 4. This is the y coordinate of the midpoint.

The two results we get are then written as an ordered pair getting us the answer (6,4)

A student translated the phrase below into an algebraic expression, and then evaluated it for g = one-fourth. Is the student's w
iragen [17]

Answer:

The correct evaluation is 1 1/3 (one and one-third) and not 16 and one-third

Step-by-step explanation:

The student was wrong in his evaluation because the correct result should be 1 1/3 (one and one-third) and not 16 and one-third

The expression '1/3 more than the product of four and a number' means

(4g + 1/3)

Evaluating the expression when g = 1/4

You will have

4×1/4 + 1/3

= 1/1 + 1/3

Find the LCM of 1 and 3 and add

= (3+1)/3

=4/3

= 1 1/3

The correct evaluation is 1 1/3 (one and one-third) and not 16 and one-third

Karen measured 20 cm between two points on the map
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Answer:

D:100

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be 100 miles. Cause if you noticed the down right corner of the map tells you that 1 cm is 5 miles. So you would multiple 5 x 20 which is 100. 20x5 cm.

An unknown number b is 10 more than an unknown number k. the number b is also k less than 8. the equations to find k and b are s
Dmitriy789 [7]
Just add the two equations together.
2b = 18
b = 18/2
b = 9

9 = k + 10
9 - 10 = k
k = - 1
