Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the eq. of parabola be

y=ax²+bx+c

points (-1,0),(2,0),(3,4) and (0,-2) lie on it.

0=a-b+c

0=4a+2b+c

subtract

3a+3b=0

a=-b

4=9a+3b+c

-2=0+0+c

c=-2

a-b-2=0

-b-b-2=0

-2b-2=0

b+1=0

b=-1

a=-b=-(-1)=1

eq. of parabola is

y=x²-x-2

Find the oth term of the geometric sequence 9, -18, 36, ...

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

2304

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

A geometric sequence is given to us which is 9 , -18 , 36.

And we need to find out the 9th term of the sequence. Here firstly we should find the Common Ratio and then we can substitute the respective values in the formula to find the nth term of a geometric sequence .

Common Ratio :-

$:\implies$ CR = -18÷ 9 = -2

The 9 th term :-

$:\implies$ T_n = arⁿ - ¹

$:\implies$ T_9 = 9× (-2) ⁹ - ¹

$:\implies$ T_9 = 9 × (-2)⁸

$:\implies$ T_9 = 9 × 256

$:\implies$ T_9 = 2304

Hence the 10th term is 2304.

Please answer this fast thank uuu :)

Answer:

x + 37 = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Since complementary angles add up to 90 degrees, we would need to add 37 and x to equal 90 degrees. Therefore, x + 37 equals 90 degrees. As for solving, subtract 37 from both sides and you are left with x = 53.
