Answer:

9,4,-1,-6,-11

Step-by-step explanation:

When n = 1: a(1+1) =a(1) +1

                   a(2) = -9 +1

                   a(2) = -8

When n = 2: a(2+1) =a(2) + 2

                   a(3) = -8 + 2

                    a(3) = -6

When n = 3: a(3+1) = -6 + 3

a(4) = -3

What is the quotient in simplified form ? Need help please
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

  -\dfrac{4a^{12}b^8}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  \dfrac{1}{a^{-b}}=a^b\\\\a^ba^c=a^{b+c}

Your ratio simplifies to ...

  \dfrac{-8a^8b^{-2}}{10a^{-4}b^{-10}}=-\dfrac{4}{5}a^{8-(-4)}b^{-2-(-10)}\\\\=-\dfrac{4a^{12}b^8}{5}

_____

Please note that simplifying the constants, -8/10 to -4/5, eliminates half the answer choices. Since exponents are only multiplied when a power is raised to a power, you can pretty much eliminate the second choice as being unreasonable. ((a^b)^c = a^(bc))

What are the coordinates of the point on the directedline segment from K(-5,-4) to L(5,1) that partitionsthe segment into a rati
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
You can solve this either just plain algebra or with the use of trigonometry.
In this case, we'll just use algebra.
 
So, if we let M be the the point that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3:2, we have this relation:
KM/ML = 3/2
KM = 1.5 ML

We also have this:
KL = KM + ML
Substituting KM,
KL = (3/2) ML + ML
KL = 2.5 ML

Using the distance formula and the given coordinates of the K and L, we get the length of KL
KL = sqrt ( (5-(-5)^2 + (1-(-4))^2 ) = 5 sqrt(5)

Since,
KL = 2.5 ML

Substituting KL,
ML = (1/2.5) KL = (1/2.5) 5 sqrt(5) = 2 sqrt(5)

Using again the distance formula from M to L and letting (x,y) as the coordinates of the point M
ML = 2 sqrt(5) = sqrt ( (5-x)^2 + (1-y)^2 )   [let this be equation 1]

In order to solve this, we need to find an expression of y in terms of x. We can use the equation of the line KL.
The slope m is:
m = (1-(-4))/(5-(-5) = 0.5

Using the general form of the linear equation:
y = mx +b
We substitue m and the coordinate of K or L. We'll just use K.
-5 = (0.5)(-4) + b
b = -1.5

So equation of the line is
y = 0.5x - 1.5      [let this be equation 2]

Substitute equation 2 to equation 1 and solving for x, we get 2 values of x,
x=1, x=9

Since 9 does not make sense (it does not lie on the line), we choose x=1.
Using the equation of the line, we get y which is -1.

So, we get the coordinates of point M which is (1,-1)
