Answer:

  a19 = -71.74

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of an arithmetic sequence with first term a1 and common difference d is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

The given 5th and 15th terms tell us ...

  -3.7 = a1 +d(5 -1)

  -52.3 = a1 +d(15 -1)

Subtracting the first of these equations from the second, we find ...

  10d = -48.6

  d = -4.86 . . . . . . divide by 10

The 19th term will be ...

  a19 = a1 +d(19 -1)

Subtracting the 15th term from this, we find ...

  a19 -a15 = 4d

  a19 = 4d +a15 = 4(-4.86) +(-52.3)

  a19 = -71.74

The approximate equation in slope intercept form is y = 3x + 2.

Solution:

Let us take (0, 2) and (1, 5) on the graph.

x_1=0, y_1=2, x_2=1, y_2=5

Equation of the line in slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept of the line.

Slope of the line:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

$m=\frac{5-2}{1-0}

$m=\frac{3}{1}

m = 3

y-intercept of the line is the value of y when x = 0.

Here the value of y is 2 when x = 0. That is (0, 2) is the point of y-intercept.

Therefore b = 2.

y = 3x + 2

Hence the approximate equation in slope intercept form is y = 3x + 2.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1: C

1 multiplied by 5 = 5

1 plus 5 = 6

So you get: (x+5)(x+1) which means x = -5 or -1

Question 2: B

2 multiplied by -4 = - 8

2 plus -4 = -2

So you get: (x-4)(x+2) which means x = 4 or -2

Yes.  That's the one and only rule.  Can you think of any case in which this rule is broken?
