Answer:
converge
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio that you multiply by to get the next term is 2/3, which is less than 1, so the geometric series converges by the Geometric Series Test.
Answer: x= 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug the second equation into the first equation’s y.
3x-2(-2x+7)=21
Then use distribution
3x+4x-14=21
Add 4x and 3x
7x-14=21
Then add 14 to both sides
7x=35
Divide by 7 to get x
35/7=5
x=5
How is this problem laid out
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the "point-slope" form of a linear equation may be expressed as
y = mx + b,
where m is the gradient.
If m is negative, the gradient is negative.
If m is positive, the gradient is positive.
In our case, if we consider option A,
x + 3y = -2 (rearranging)
3y = -x -2
y = (-1/3) x - (2/3)
if we compare this to the general equation at the top, we can see that
gradient, = m = (-1/3) which is negative.
hence option a has a negative gradient.
