I am pretty sure that the answer is the first one but I’m not 100%
Find what the sum of the #s could be by multiplying 15*4 since there's 4 #s . 15*4=60 so the sum of the 4 #s is 60
Answer:
The first term of the sequence is -120.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the "nth" term of a geometric sequence is shown below:
an = a0*r^(n-1)
Where an is the nth term, r is the ratio and n is the position of the term on the sequence. For this problem we want to find what is the initial term, a0, so we will isolate it in the formula as shown below:
a0*r^(n-1) = an
a0 = an/[r^(n-1)]
We then apply the data given to us
a0 = 31.45728/[-0.8^(7-1)]
a0 = 31.45728/[-0.8^6] =31.45728 /-0.262144= -120
The first term of the sequence is -120.
If f(x)=2x-1 just plug in the 3 where x is. So it would be 2(3)-1=5
Ac method
for
ax^2+bx+c
multiply a and c together
find what 2 numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b
split b up
gropu
factor
3x^2+7x+2
2 times 3=6
what 2 numbers multily to get 6 and ad to get 7
6 and 1
3x^2+6x+1x+2
(3x^2+6x)+(1x+2)
3x(x+2)+1(x+2)
(3x+1)(x+2) is factored
