Slope intercepf is y=mx+b wherem=slope and b= y intercept
slope is found by doing
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
points are (6,-1) and (-3,2)
(x,y)
x1=6
y1=-1
x2=-3
y2=2
subsitute
(-1-2)/(6-(-2))=-3/(6+2)=-3/8
slope=-3/8
subsitute
y=-3/8x+b
subsitute and solve for b
(-3,2)
x=-3
y=2
2=-3/8(-3)+b
2=9/8+b
2=16/8
subtract 9/8 from both sides
16/8-9/8=b
7/8=b
y=-3/9x+7/8 is the equation
The decimal form for nine and fifteen thousandths is 09.15
Answer:
a(8) = -0.0027
Step-by-step explanation:
The most general formula for a geometric sequence is a(n) = a(1)*r^(n-1), where a(1) is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Here, the formula becomes a(n) = 6*(-1/3)^(n-1).
Substitute 8 for n to find the eighth term:
a(8) = 6*(-1/3)^(8-1), or a(8) = 6(-1/3)^7, or a(8) = -0.0027
3x=90 2x=50
And the last one is 40
