<h3>
Answer: D) common ratio</h3>
Explanation:
The four points on this curve are
(1, 3)
, (2, 6), (3, 12)
, (4, 24)
The equation of the curve that goes through all the points mentioned is
y = 3*2^(x-1) which is equivalent to y = 1.5*2^x
Both equations are exponential equations.
Sequences of the form
a(n) = a*(r)^(n-1)
are geometric sequences with common ratio r. In this case, r = 2.
Note how the jump from 3 to 6 is "times 2", so is from 6 to 12, and from 12 to 24. We multiply each term by 2 to get the next one.
Answer:
After adding 8 you get 14 = x/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
6=x/4-8 Add 8 to both sides:
6 + 8 = x/4 - 8 + 8
14 = x/4
x = 4*14
x = 56.
the answer to your question is x= -2
Answer:
SteLet a = short leg of the right triangle, b = the longer leg, and c = the hypotenuse.
The longer leg of a right triangle is 4inches longer than the shorter leg: b = a + 4
The hypotenuse is 8inches longer than the shorter leg: c = a + 8
Use the Pythagorean Theorem:
a2 + b2 = c2
a2 + (a+4)2 = (a+8)2
a2 + a2 + 8a + 16 = a2 + 16a + 64
a2 - 8a - 48 = 0
Factors to:
(a-12)(a+4) = 0
a = 12, -4
Since we can't have a side of -4, a = 12
Shorter Leg = 12 inches
Longer Leg = 12 + 4 = 16 inches
Hypotenuse = 12 + 8 = 20 inches
