This "staircase" sequence shows a growing pattern. Predict the total number of cubes you will need to build the 50th staircase. Show your thinking.

(- 1, 0 )

step-by-step explanation:

an x- intercept is where the function crosses the x- axis.

to find the x- intercept/s look for the value of x when f(x) = 0

from the given table there are 3 values of x where f(x) = 0

when x = - 1, x = 2, x = 3

the one that is listed is (- 1, 0 )

okey so the slope is -3/5 and the y -intercept is 7/5

hope this if needed hmu

1350 hats

step-by-step explanation:

divide 900 by 2 to find 50% or half of 900

900/2=450

add 450 to 900
