Answer:
OPTION B: 162, 486, 1458
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence is 2, 6, 18, 54, . . .
It is a geometric sequence and the common difference is 3.
The general form of a geometric sequence is: a, ar, ar², ar³, . . .
Here a = 2 and r = 3.
term of a Geometric progression is
.
Note that the fourth term is 54.
i.e., 
.
Similarly,
.
Also,
.
Hence, OPTION B is the answer.
Answer:
x^2=12x-32
Step-by-step explanation:
try to factor by splitting the middle term example x^2-(12*x-32)=0
multiply the coefficient of the first term by the the constant 1 X 32=32
find two factors of 32 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term which is answer keys -32 +-1 =-33
-16+-2=-18
-8+4=-12.
Answer:
[0] real zeros
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the discriminant of the quadratic formula which is b² – 4ac to determine the # of real zeros by knowing that:
- 2 real zero(s) occur when b² – 4ac > 0.
- 1 real zero(s) occur when b² – 4ac = 0.
- 0 real zero(s) occur when b² – 4ac < 0.
