3 0

Answer:

(a) -7, (b) 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) When x = 0,

=> x² - 8x - 7

=> (0)² - 8(0) - 7

=> 0 - 0 - 7

=> - 7

b) When x = -1,

=> x² - 8x - 7

=> (-1)² - 8(-1) - 7

=> 1 + 8 - 7

=> 9 - 7

=> 2

If tatianna works 3hrs a day on school days and make $123.75 a week what is her hourly rate?​
madreJ [45]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

Her hourly rate is $8.25

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Tatianna works 3 hours a day on school days and makes a total of $123.75 in a week

<u>We know that:</u>

There are 5 school days in a week

<u>We are given that:</u>

She works for 3 hours a day each of those days

<u>Therefore:</u>

Total number of hours worked = hours worked daily * number of days

Total number of hours worked = 3 * 5 = 15 hours in a week

<u>The equation used to calculate Tatianna's earnings is:</u>

Amount she makes in a week = Total number of hours worked * hourly rate

<u>Now, we substitute with the givens to get the hourly rate as follows:</u>

Amount she makes in a week = Total number of hours worked * hourly rate

123.75 = 15 * hourly rate

Hourly rate = $8.25

Consider the first four terms of the sequence below. -3, -12, -48, -192, . . . What is the 8th term of this sequence? A. -49,152
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is

- 12 ÷ - 3 = - 48 ÷ - 12 = - 192 ÷ - 48 = 4

this indicates the sequence is geometric with nth term

a_{n} = a₁ r^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

here a₁ = - 3 and r = 4 , then

a₈ = - 3 × 4^{7} = - 3 × 16,384 = - 49,152
