X/5 = 24/8
(because the triangles are similar)
x/5 = 3
x = 5*3 = 15 Answer
a/27 = 8/24 = 1/3
a = 9 Answer
C. Because you have to look for the greatest number. Disregard whether it is negative or positive. Since you are looking for steepness. That does not matter.
9x +5y= -45
put in standard form
y= mx+b
coefficient of x is the slope, b is the y intercpept
5y= -9x -45
y= -9/5 x -45
graphing will start at -45 on the y axis
from that point go down 9 to the right 5 for the slope continue and graph minimum
2 points to draw the line
hope this helps
Short answer: Yes.
Each member of the sequence is multiplied by 5 to get to the next member of the sequence.
Find the general equation.
tn = a*5^(n - 1)
Example
t4 = 1*5^(4 - 1)
t4 = 1*5^3
t4 = 125 just as the sequence shows.
t5 = 1^5^4
t5 = 625 Any member of the sequence can be found this way.
