Step-by-step explanation:

slope is y2-y1/x2-x1

-3-4=-7

-1-4=-5

now that you have -7/-5, or negative seven fifths, simplify.

you get -0.4, or -2/5 as your slope

Hope this helps!!

I can’t figure out what the half circle means the answer options are 163,129,149 and 186

vodka [1.7K]

Answer: 129

Step-by-step explanation: First find the area of the circle. Since we know the area of a circle is πr² (pi multiplied by the radius squared) we can find the area of the half circle. The radius is 5 (because radius is half of the diameter)

Area=3.14(5)²

=3.14(25)

=78.5

But since this is just a half circle, divide this by 2

That will get 39.25

Then add this to the area of the rectangle (L*W) which is 90

That will get about 129

I’m sort of confused on how to state and find the domain and range of this graph

Yuliya22 [10]

You have a special type of function, so you have to express the domain and range of each interval. Every aspect of this graph is closed, so you will only use brackets when writing your answers. Hence, you get [30,5] for the first interval, since there is a horizontal distance of 30 and a vertical distance of 5. You repeat the same process for each interval.

The first, third and thirteenth terms of an arithmetic sequence are the first 3 terms of a geometric sequence. If the first term

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The first three terms of the geometry sequence would be $1$ , $5$ , and $25$ .

The sum of the first seven terms of the geometric sequence would be $127$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $d$ denote the common difference of the arithmetic sequence.

Let $a_1$ denote the first term of the arithmetic sequence. The expression for the $n$ th term of this sequence (where $n\!$ is a positive whole number) would be $(a_1 + (n - 1)\, d)$ .

The question states that the first term of this arithmetic sequence is $a_1 = 1$ . Hence:

The third term of this arithmetic sequence would be $a_1 + (3 - 1)\, d = 1 + 2\, d$ .
The thirteenth term of would be $a_1 + (13 - 1)\, d = 1 + 12\, d$ .

The common ratio of a geometric sequence is ratio between consecutive terms of that sequence. Let $r$ denote the ratio of the geometric sequence in this question.

Ratio between the second term and the first term of the geometric sequence:

$\displaystyle r = \frac{1 + 2\, d}{1} = 1 + 2\, d$ .

Ratio between the third term and the second term of the geometric sequence:

$\displaystyle r = \frac{1 + 12\, d}{1 + 2\, d}$ .

Both $(1 + 2\, d)$ and $\left(\displaystyle \frac{1 + 12\, d}{1 + 2\, d}\right)$ are expressions for $r$ , the common ratio of this geometric sequence. Hence, equate these two expressions and solve for $d$ , the common difference of this arithmetic sequence.

$\displaystyle 1 + 2\, d = \frac{1 + 12\, d}{1 + 2\, d}$ .

$(1 + 2\, d)^{2} = 1 + 12\, d$ .

$d = 2$ .

Hence, the first term, the third term, and the thirteenth term of the arithmetic sequence would be $1$ , $(1 + (3 - 1) \times 2) = 5$ , and $(1 + (13 - 1) \times 2) = 25$ , respectively.

These three terms ( $1$ , $5$ , and $25$ , respectively) would correspond to the first three terms of the geometric sequence. Hence, the common ratio of this geometric sequence would be $r = 25 /5 = 5$ .

Let $a_1$ and $r$ denote the first term and the common ratio of a geometric sequence. The sum of the first $n$ terms would be:

$\displaystyle \frac{a_1 \, \left(1 - r^{n}\right)}{1 - r}$ .

For the geometric sequence in this question, $a_1 = 1$ and $r = 25 / 5 = 5$ .

Hence, the sum of the first $n = 7$ terms of this geometric sequence would be:

$\begin{aligned} & \frac{a_1 \, \left(1 - r^{n}\right)}{1 - r}\\ &= \frac{1 \times \left(1 - 2^{7}\right)}{1 - 2} \\ &= \frac{(1 - 128)}{(-1)} = 127 \end{aligned}$ .

Tyler has 3 times as many books as Mai. How many books does Mai have<br> if Tyler has x books?

arlik [135]

It should be the first one, or 3x, I’m pretty sure because x is going to be the amount that he has and he has 3 times the amount or something
