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

What is 10 to the negative 6th power?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

0.000001

Step-by-step explanation:

It is because 10 is represented as just like 10 and then in a certain place.  And then the negative means it is to the right of the decimal. 6th power means the 6th place. So, basically it means, 10 in the 6th to the right place which is 0.0000010. You do not need the last zero because there is no value after that, so 0.000001.

FIND THE SUM AND THE DIFFERENCE FOR EACH PAIR OF POLYNOMIALS please show work
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

12a. Addition = 7y⁵ + 7y³ – 6y – 5

12b. Subtraction = – y⁵ – 3y³ + 8y + 11

13a. Addition = 5x⁴ + x³ – 6x² + 8x + 17

13b. Subtraction = – x⁴ – 9x³ –6x² + 8x + 3

14a. Addition = – 2b⁴ + b³ – 11b² – 1

14b. Subtraction = 4b⁴ + 7b³ – b² + 8b – 1

15a. Addition = m⁵ + m⁴ + m³ + m²

15b. Subtraction = m⁵ – m⁴ – m³ – m² – 10

16a. Addition = 4x⁴ + 12x³ + 18x² + 16x + 4

16b. Subtraction = 4x⁴ – 4x³ + 14x² – 16x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

12a. Addition

.. 3y⁵ + 2y³ + y + 3

+ (4y⁵ + 5y³– 7y – 8)

————————————

= 7y⁵ + 7y³ – 6y – 5

12b. Subtraction

.. 3y⁵ + 2y³ + y + 3

– (4y⁵ + 5y³– 7y – 8)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= – y⁵ – 3y³ + 8y + 11

13a. Addition

.. 2x⁴ – 4x³ – 6x² + 8x + 10

+ (3x⁴ + 5x³ +...................+ 7)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 5x⁴ + x³ – 6x² + 8x + 17

13b. Subtraction

.. 2x⁴ – 4x³ – 6x² + 8x + 10

– (3x⁴ + 5x³ +...................+ 7)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= – x⁴ – 9x³ – 6x² + 8x + 3

14a. Addition

...... b⁴ + 4b³ – 6b² + 4b – 1

+ (– 3b⁴ – 3b³ – 5b² – 4b)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= – 2b⁴ + b³ – 11b² – 1

14b. Subtraction

...... b⁴ + 4b³ – 6b² + 4b – 1

– (– 3b⁴ – 3b³ – 5b² – 4b)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 4b⁴ + 7b³ – b² + 8b – 1

15a. Addition

... m⁵ + m³ – 5

+ (m⁴ + m² + 5)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= m⁵ + m⁴ + m³ + m²

15b. Subtraction

... m⁵ + m³ – 5

– (m⁴ + m² + 5)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= m⁵ – m⁴ – m³ – m² – 10

16a. Addition

.... 4x⁴ + 8x³ + 16x² + 4

+ (4x³ + 2x² + 16x)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 4x⁴ + 12x³ + 18x² + 16x + 4

16b. Subtraction

.... 4x⁴ + 8x³ + 16x² + 4

– (4x³ + 2x² + 16x)

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

= 4x⁴ – 4x³ + 14x² – 16x + 4

Find the infinite sum of 10,5,2.5,1.25...
____ [38]
Notice this is a geometric progression since each number multiplied by some factor equals the next number in the sequence, in this case,

10 \times r = 5 \Rightarrow r=0.5

Then by applying the formula for sum to infinity of a geometric progression,
S_\infty = \frac{a}{1-r} = \frac{10}{1-0.5} = 20
