Phoenix [80]2 years ago

Answer:

the weight of 24 bricks is :

124\frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

26\frac{1}{4} =26+\frac{1}{4} =\frac{26\times 4}{4} +\frac{1}{4} =\frac{105}{4}

It is clear that there is a proportional relationship between the number of bricks and their weights then :

\frac{26\frac{1}{4} }{5} =\frac{x}{24} \Longrightarrow \frac{\left( \frac{105}{4} \right)  }{5} =\frac{x}{24} \Longrightarrow \frac{26}{5} =\frac{x}{24}

\Longrightarrow x=\frac{26\times 24}{5} =\frac{624}{5} =124\frac{4}{5}

Given the geometric sequence where a1 = 3 and r = √2 find a9
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

a_9=48

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

sequence is geometric

so, we can use nth term formula

a_n=a_1(r)^{n-1}

we have

a_1=3

r=\sqrt{2}

we have to find a9

so, we can plug n=9

we get

a_9=3(\sqrt{2})^{9-1}

a_9=2^4\cdot \:3

a_9=48

The degree measure of an angle and its supplement are consecutive odd integers. Find the measure of each angle.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

89

91

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary means the pair of angles that have this relationship add up to 180 degrees.

If you assume n is odd, then the very next odd number is n+2.

Example 5 is odd and the next odd number after 5 is 7. This fits the pattern of n and n+2 when n=5.

So we are given the degree measurement of an angle and it's supplement are consecutive odd integers.

So let's pretend the supplement of A is B. This means A+B=180.

We are also given A and B are consecutive odd integers, so this means we are going to let A=n and B=n+2.

Let's put this into our equation for A+B=180:

(n)+(n+2)=180

n  + n+2 =180

2n     +2 =180

Subtract 2 on both sides:

2n          =178

Divide both sides by 2:

 n           =178/2

Simplify right hand side:

 n           =89

If n=89, then n+2=89+2=91.

Does 89+91=180? Yep.

Are 89 and 91 consecutive odd numbers?  Yep.  

Here are some consecutive numbers including those: 89,90,91

Yes 91 is the next odd number after 89.
