Given:

The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]

[tex]a_1=-3[/tex]

To find:

The explicit formula of the given geometric sequence.

Solution:

We know that, first term of geometric sequence is [tex]a_1=-3[/tex].

Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\times r[/tex]      ...(i)

where, r is common ratio.

We have,

[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]    ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]

The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is

[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]

Putting [tex]a_1=-3[/tex] and [tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex], we get

[tex]a_n=-3\left(\dfrac{1}{8}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

change 6 into 6/1

6/1 times 3/2 cause you switch around the two and three and change it to multiplication

6 times 3 = 18

2 times 1 = 2

18/2 = 9/1 = 9

Answer:

13). y = x² + 6x + 8

14). y = 2x² + 8x - 12  

Step-by-step explanation:

13). Vertex form of a parabola is given by,

     y = a(x - h)² + k

     Here (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

     Equation of a parabola with vertex (-3, -1) will be,

     y = a(x + 3)² - 1

     Since, y-intercept of the parabola is y = 8

     In other words, parabola is passing through (0, 8)

     8 = a(0 + 3)² - 1

     8 = 9a - 1

     9a = 9

     a = 1

    Therefore, equation of the parabola will be,

    y = (x + 3)² - 1

    y = x² + 6x + 9 - 1

    y = x² + 6x + 8

14). Equation of a parabola with vertex (-2, -20)

     y = a(x + 2)² - 20

     Since, y-intercept of the parabola is (0, -12),

    -12 = a(0 + 2)² - 20

    -12 + 20 = 4a

     4a = 8

     a = 2

    Therefore, equation of the parabola will be,

     y = 2(x + 2)² - 20

     y = 2(x² + 4x + 4) - 20

     y = 2x² + 8x + 8 - 20

     y = 2x² + 8x - 12

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1 Factoring 2x2-9x+7

The first term is, 2x2 its coefficient is 2 .

The middle term is, -9x its coefficient is -9 .

The last term, "the constant", is +7

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 2 • 7 = 14

Step-2 : Find two factors of 14 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -9 .

-14 + -1 = -15

-7 + -2 = -9 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -7 and -2

2x2 - 7x - 2x - 7

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

x • (2x-7)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

1 • (2x-7)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(x-1) • (2x-7)

Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

4.1 Solve px-2x3+13x2-25x+14 = 0

In this type of equations, having more than one variable (unknown), you have to specify for which variable you want the equation solved.

We shall not handle this type of equations at this time.

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving 2x2-9x+7 = 0 directly

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

5.1 Find the Vertex of y = 2x2-9x+7

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex . Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) . We know this even before plotting "y" because the coefficient of the first term, 2 , is positive (greater than zero).

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 2.2500

Plugging into the parabola formula 2.2500 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :

y = 2.0 * 2.25 * 2.25 - 9.0 * 2.25 + 7.0

or y = -3.125

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for : y = 2x2-9x+7

Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 2.25}

Vertex at {x,y} = { 2.25,-3.12}

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at {x,y} = { 1.00, 0.00}

Root 2 at {x,y} = { 3.50, 0.00}

3 Solving 2x2-9x+7 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

- B ± √ B2-4AC

x = ————————

2A

In our case, A = 2

B = -9

C = 7

Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =

81 - 56 =

25

Applying the quadratic formula :

9 ± √ 25

x = —————

4

Can √ 25 be simplified ?

Yes! The prime factorization of 25 is

5•5

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be 2 instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 25 = √ 5•5 =

± 5 • √ 1 =

± 5

So now we are looking at:

x = ( 9 ± 5) / 4

Two real solutions:

x =(9+√25)/4=(9+5)/4= 3.500

or:

x =(9-√25)/4=(9-5)/4= 1.000

Answer:

y=5x-40

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 5 feet per second, so you know that is the rate/speed. The rate is always going to be x. The building starts in the basement which is  -40 because the basement is under ground level, so it would be less then 0 (ground level) and y is the final height you are at.

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the HCF of two numbers is 20 and the LCM of both numbers is a multiple of 14.

So, the LCM of both numbers = 14n where n can be any natural number.

As HCF of two numbers is always smaller than or equal to the smallest number among both the numbers.

Here, the HCF of two numbers is 20, so the smallest number is greater than of equal to 20.

Hence, the smallest possible number is 20.

Answer:

x=-5/2,0

Step-by-step explanation:

It is solved by first factorizing it

10x²+25x=5x(2x+5)=0

Finding the zeros

5x=0x=0/5=0

2x+5=0

x=-5/2

Therefore x is -5/2 or 0

The given expression is :

1:2=3:x

To find,

The value of x.

Solution,

The ratio of LHS is 1:2 or 1/2

It should be same as in RHS.

If x = 6,

Then the ratio becomes :

1:2 = 3:6

or

1:2 = 1:2

Hence, the value of x = 6.

Answer:

Dilation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Main function: f(x)

Resulting function: 5f(x)

Required

Which transformation exists between both functions

The general explanation is that:

When a function f(x) is multiplied by a constant k, the resulting function g(x) is a dilation of f(x).

Mathematically, if the following relationship exists between f(x) and g(x)

g(x) = k.f(x)

Then g(x) is a dilation of f(x) and k is the constant of proportionality or dilation ratio

In this case:

g(x) = 5f(x)

So, the transformation that answers the question is dilation.

Answer: vertical | stretch | left

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Player 1 is at (-7,5).

Player 2 is at (7,5).

To find:

The relationship between the positions of the two players.

Solution:

The two points are (-7,5) and (7,5).

Here, x-coordinates are different but y-coordinates are same. The absolute values of x-coordinates are equal but the signs are different.

The transformation is defined as

[tex](x,y)\to (-x,y)[/tex]

It means, the points are mirror image of each other with respect to y-axis.

Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer:

I put the equation into Point-Slope Form and got:

y - 2 = 2/3(x + (-12))

Distribute the 3 to the numbers on the left:

3y - 6 = 2(x - 12)

Multiply the Parenthesis by 2:

3y - 6 = 2x - 24

Add 6 to the right side:

3y = 2x - 18

Divide both sides by 3:

y = 2/3x - 6 is the answer :)

Because here there are 5 zeroes so 0.00003 can be written as 3/100000 , here 100000 = 10⁵ . Now , 3/10⁵ → 3 × 1/10⁵ → 3 × 10-⁵

Hence , 0.00003 = 3 × 10-⁵ . So it is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people in the 25th annual parade in the town, can be found to be 203 people

The number of people that attend the town parade, has been increasing by 5% each year since the first year. In that first annual parade, 60 people showed up.

The number of people in the 25th parade can be found by the formula:

= Number of people in first parade x ( 1  + growth rate) ^ number of years

= 60 x ( 1 + 5% ) ²⁵

= 60 x 3.3863549408993848167083336666837

= 203 people

Answer:

5/6−1/9=13/18

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.

(5/6×3/3)−(1/9×2/2)=?

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

15/18−2/18=?

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.

Then:

15−2/18=13/18

This fraction cannot be reduced.

Therefore:

5/6−1/9=13/18
