Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

5(3x-2)=-x-10~(Given)\\\\15x-10=-x-10~(Distribute~5~to~3x-2)\\\\15x-10+x=-x-10+x~(Add~x~on~both~sides)\\\\16x-10=-10~(Simplify)\\\\16x-10+10=-10+10~(Add~10~on~both~sides)\\\\16x=0~(Simplify)\\\\\frac{16x}{16}=\frac{0}{16}~(Divide~16~on~both~sides)\\\\x=0~(Simplify)

Which represents a quadratic function?
irinina [24]

Answer:

Option 2 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic function is a function in which the highest power to which the variable is raised is 2

1) f(x) = −8x3 − 16x2 − 4x

The given function is a cubic function because the highest power

to which the variable,x is raised is 3

2) f(x) = 3x²/4 + 2x - 5

The given function is a quadratic function because the highest power

to which the variable,x is raised is 2

3) f(x) = 4/x² - 2/x + 1

It can be rewritten as

f(x) = 4x^-2 - 2x^-1 + 1

The given function is not a quadratic function because the highest power to which the variable,x is raised is - 2

4) f(x) = 0x2 − 9x + 7

It can be rewritten as

f(x) = - 9x + 7

The given function is not a quadratic function because the highest power to which the variable,x is raised is 1

Find a formula for the general term an of the sequence, assuming that the pattern of the first few terms continues. (assume that
Lilit [14]
Your sequence
  -8, 16/3, -32/9, 64/27
is a geometric sequence with first term -8 and common ratio
  (16/3)/(-8) = (-32/9)/(16/3) = -2/3

The general term an of a geometric sequence with first term a1 and ratio r is given by
  an = a1·r^(n-1)
For your sequence, this is
  an = -8·(-2/3)^(n-1)
