Answer:

f(x) = -0.5x + 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = mx + b

f(-1) = -m + b = 4   ...(1)

f(5) = 5m + b = 1   ...(2)

(1)-(2):  -6m = 3         m = -1/2    (-0.5)

b = 4 + (-1/2) = 3.5

Equation: f(x) = -0.5x + 3.5

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

3.63 * 10^19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of choices to select = 12

Category available :

Blues - 14

Country - 25

Disco - 21

To select an equal number of song for each category ; then 4 songs will be selected from each :

Using combination :

(14C4 * 25C4 * 21C4)

Since the order matters for the 12 selected songs ; it thus requires 12 permutation

Thus ;

(14C4 * 25C4 * 21C4) * 12!

nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!

Using calculator;

14C4 = 1001 ;

25C4 = 12650

21C4 = 5985

12! = 479001600

Hence,

(1001 * 12650 * 5985) * 479001600

= 36301596217286400000

=3.63 * 10^19

Provide the first six terms of the following sequence:<br><br> t1=81 tn=1/3tn-1
Andrews [41]

We get tne n-th term with: tn=1/3tn-1

We know that the first term is t1=81, so 81=1/3t*1-1

81=1/3t-1

82=1/3t

82*3t=1

3t=1/82

t=1/82*3=1/246

The second term is: 1/

2*(1/246)*2)-1

We get the third term by replacing n with 3 and so on...

Which set of absolute values is compared correctly?
stepan [7]
I would say D because, it makes sense the most, absolute values make the negatives positive, so the order that D goes in is correct.
