Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio is given as 2, so the base of any exponential must be 2 (not -2 or 2.25). The 4th term is negative, so the initial value must be negative (since the multiplying factor is positive). The only selection matching these requirements is d.
You know the general term is ...
... an = a1·r^(n-1)
so the 4th term is
... -18 = a1·2^(4-1) = 8·a1
Then the first term is ...
... a1 = -18/8 = -2.25 . . . . . confirms our choice of answer d.
Answer:
a. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the scale:
42 ÷ 28 = 1.5
Use this scale for QR to find MN:
24 ÷ 1.5 = 16
Answer:
x ≤ 2
Step-by-step explanation:
If you referencing ">=" as greater than or equal to, follow the solution below:
Solve:
3x - 6 + 2 ≥ 5x - 8
Combine like terms.
3x - 4 ≥ 5x - 8
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-2x - 4 ≥ -8
Add 4 to both sides.
-2x ≥ -4
Divide both sides by -2, while flipping the inequality as well since you're dividing by a negative number.
x ≤ 2
Your answer would be x ≤ 2
Answer:
33°
Step-by-step explanation:
you add the two numbers together and subtract from 180° to get your answer
A perpendicular bisector forms two right angles and splits the line in two equal parts.
The altitude does create two right angles, but doesn't have to create two equal parts.
