Answer:1.8x – 10 = –4; x = 1.8 x minus 10 equals negative 4; x equals StartFraction 10 Over 2 EndFraction.
1.8 - 10= -4 x= -10/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = -1/2 x
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the directions "Complete the steps to write the equation of direct variation. Start with the equation of direct variation y = kx. Substitute in the given values for x and y to get . Solve for k to get . Write the direct variation equation with the value found for k."
y = kx substitute y = -4 and x = 8.
-4 = k*8
-4/8 = k
-1/2 = k
So the equation is y = -1/2(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest method is "brute force". Calculate each term and add them up.
∑ = 3(1) + 3(2) + 3(3) + 3(4) + 3(5)
∑ = 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15
∑ = 45

∑ = (2×1)² + (2×2)² + (2×3)² + (2×4)²
∑ = 4 + 16 + 36 + 64
∑ = 120

∑ = (2×3−10) + (2×4−10) + (2×5−10) + (2×6−10)
∑ = -4 + -2 + 0 + 2
∑ = -4
4. 1 + 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/64 + 1/256
This is a geometric sequence where the first term is 1 and the common ratio is 1/4. The nth term is:
a = 1 (1/4)ⁿ⁻¹
So the series is:

5. -5 + -1 + 3 + 7 + 11
This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -5 and the common difference is 4. The nth term is:
a = -5 + 4(n−1)
a = -5 + 4n − 4
a = 4n − 9
So the series is:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of a exponential growth function is given by

where
P(t) is the population in Madison
t is the number of years
a is the initial value
b is the factor of growth
we have

substitute
