  B. 11.000

Step-by-step explanation:

The function looks like a reflected and translated exponential function with a horizontal asymptote near y = 11.000. The rate of change is decreasing so fast that the next value is expected to be very near 10.994. The closest one among the answer choices is 11.000.

First differences are 0.811 and 0.011. The latter is about 0.0136 times the former. At that rate of change, we expect the next first difference to be about 0.000149, which would make the next number in sequence be about 10.9941—very little change from 10.994.

Clearly, first differences are not constant, so the function is not linear. Ratios of the numbers are not constant, so this is not an exponential (geometric) sequence. A reflected exponential function of the type described is a good fit.

With only 3 points given, the rule is not at all obvious. The next term could legitimately be anything you like, and a rule could be made that would fit it.

step-by-step explanation:

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
