The first five terms of the geometric series is : -2, -6, -18, -54, -162.
To solve the given problem :Given : [tex]a_{5} = -162[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} = -6[/tex]
We know G.P. series always increases in the form [tex]a.r^{n-1}[/tex]
Similarly, [tex]a_{5} = a.r^{5-1} = a.r^{4} = -162[/tex]
[tex]a_{2} = a.r^{2-1} = a.r = -6[/tex]
Now, [tex]\frac{a_{5} }{a_{2} } = \frac{a.r^{4} }{a.r^{1} } = r^{4-1}[/tex]
[tex]r^{3} = \frac{-162}{-6} = 27[/tex]
[tex]r = \sqrt[3]{27} = 3[/tex]
Now,
[tex]a_{2} = a.r = -6\\a.(3) = -6\\a = -2[/tex]
The first 5 terms are : [tex]a, a.r, a.r^{2} , a.r^{3} , a.r^{4}[/tex]
[tex]-2 , (-2).3 , (-2).3^{2} , (-2).3^{3} , (-2).3^{4}[/tex]
Therefore, The first 5 terms are : -2, -6, -18, -54, -162.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are given choices, you should list them please. Otherwise we cannot be certain our answers are taken far enough.
The general formula for expanding a binomial raised to the third power is
(a - b)^3 = a^3 - 3a^2b + 3ab^2 - b^3
Solution
To modify the general formula to suit this problem, let
a = 3m
b = - 4
When that is done, the general equation becomes
(3m)^3 - 3* (3m)^2 * 4 + 3 * 3m * 4^2 - 4^3
(3m - 4)^3 = 27m^3 - 108 m^2 + 144m - 64
Multiply everything in the 4-nomial by 3m^3
(27m^3 - 108 m^2 + 144m - 64)3m^3
81m^6 - 323 m^5 + 432m^4 - 192m^3 which is your answer. I see why you didn't include it, with other (incorrect) possibilities.

The value of y is 11 if the measure of the angle (x + 6y) is 90 degree and x = 24 option first is correct.
What is a perpendicular line?Lines that intersect at a right angle are named perpendicular lines. Lines that are always the same distance apart from each other known as parallel lines.
We have a perpendicular line shown in the picture.
The measure of the angle (4x - 6) is equal to 90 degree.
4x - 6 = 90
4x = 96
x = 24
Similarly, the measure of the angle (x + 6y) is equal to 90 degree:
x + 6y = 90
Plug x = 24
24 + 6y = 90
y = 11
Thus, the value of y is 11 if the measure of the angle (x + 6y) is 90 degree and x = 24 option first is correct.

The price of products may increase due to inflation and decrease due to depreciation. Marco is studying the change in the price of two products, A and B, over time.
The price f(x), in dollars, of product A after x years is represented by the function below:
f(x) = 0.69(1.03)x
Part A: Is the price of product A increasing or decreasing and by what percentage per year? Justify your answer. (5 points)
Part B: The table below shows the price f(t), in dollars, of product B after t years:
t (number of years) 1 2 3 4
f(t) (price in dollars) 10,100 10,201 10,303.01 10,406.04
Which product recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year? Justify your answer. (5 points)
Answer:
A) 3%
B) Product A
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential Function
General form of an exponential function: [tex]y=ab^x[/tex]
where:
a is the initial value (y-intercept)b is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal formx is the independent variabley is the dependent variableIf b > 1 then it is an increasing function
If 0 < b < 1 then it is a decreasing function
Part A
Product A
Assuming the function for Product A is exponential:
[tex]f(x) = 0.69(1.03)^x[/tex]
The base (b) is 1.03. As b > 1 then it is an increasing function.
To calculate the percentage increase/decrease, subtract 1 from the base:
⇒ 1.03 - 1 = 0.03 = 3%
Therefore, product A is increasing by 3% each year.
Part B
[tex]\sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{final\:value-initial\:value}{initial\:value} \times 100[/tex]
To calculate the percentage change in Product B, use the percentage change formula with two consecutive values of f(t) from the given table:
[tex]\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10201-10100}{10100}\times 100=1\%[/tex]
Check using different two consecutive values of f(t):
[tex]\implies \sf percentage\:change=\dfrac{10303.01-10201}{10201}\times 100=1\%[/tex]
Therefore, as 3% > 1%, Product A recorded a greater percentage change in price over the previous year.
Although the question has not asked, we can use the given information to easily create an exponential function for Product B.
Given:
a = 10,100b = 1.01n = t - 1 (as the initial value is for t = 1 not t = 0)[tex]\implies f(t) = 10100(1.01)^{t-1}[/tex]
To check this, substitute the values of t for 1 through 4 into the found function:
[tex]\implies f(1) = 10100(1.01)^{1-1}=10100[/tex]
[tex]\implies f(2) = 10100(1.01)^{2-1}=10201[/tex]
[tex]\implies f(3) = 10100(1.01)^{3-1}=10303.01[/tex]
[tex]\implies f(4) = 10100(1.01)^{4-1}=10406.04[/tex]
As these values match the values in the given table, this confirms that the found function for Product B is correct and that Product B increases by 1% per year.
Avani has a loyalty card good for a discount at her local hardware store. The item she wants to buy is priced at $17, before discount and tax. After the discount, and before tax, the price is $15.64. Find the percent discount.
The percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.
What is the percentage?
The Percentage is defined as representing any number with respect to the 100. It is denoted by the sign %.
Given that:-
Price of the item before tax and discount = $17After discount and before tax price is = $15.64The percentage of the discount will be calculated as:-
Percentage discount = ( 17 - 16.64 ) / ( 17 )
Percentage discount= ( 1.36 ) / ( 17 )
Percentage discount = 0.08 x 100 = 8%
Therefore the percentage discount on the item will be equal to 8%.

The following lines are parallel. 6x + 3y = 7 and y = -2x + 3
True
False
Answer:
True
Step-by-step explanation:
• Parallel lines have equal slopes
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
6x + 3y = 7 ( subtract 6x from both sides )
3y = - 6x + 7 ( divide terms by 3 )
y = - 2x + [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex] → in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 2
y = - 2x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 2
since both lines have equal slopes then they are parallel lines

The graph of which function has a minimum located at (4, –3)?
f(x) = one-halfx2 + 4x – 11
f(x) = –2x2 + 16x – 35
f(x) = one-halfx2 – 4x + 5
f(x) = 2x2 – 16x + 35
The parabola with the minimum at (4, -3) is the third option:
[tex]y = 0.5*x^2 - 4x + 5[/tex]
Which of the given parabolas has a minimum at (4, -3)?
Remember that for a parabola of the form:
[tex]y = a*x^2 + b*x + c[/tex]
If a > 0, the minimum is at the x-value of the vertex:
[tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]
If a < 0, there is no minimum (so we discard option 2).
Taking the third option:
[tex]y = 0.5*x^2 - 4x + 5[/tex]
The x-value of the vertex is:
[tex]x = \frac{-(-4)}{2*0.5} = 4[/tex]
As expected.
To get the y-value of the vertex (and minimum) we just evaluate the parabola equation in x = 4.
[tex]y = 0.5*(4)^2 - 4*4 + 5 = -3[/tex]
So the minimum is at (4, -3), as expected, so that is the correct option.

The standard deviation of the given discrete distribution, considering it's formula, is of 1.195.
How to find the mean and the standard deviation of a discrete distribution?The mean is given by the sum of the multiplications of each outcome by it's probability.The standard deviation is given by the square root of the sum of the squares of each outcome subtracted by the mean, multiplied by it's probability.Researching this problem on the internet, the distribution is given by:
