1/6 of x - 4 = 3

((1/6).x) - 4 = 3

x/6 - 4 = 3

(x-24)/6 = 3

x - 24 = 18

x = 18 + 24

x = 42

hope it helps...!!!

Given the following geometric sequence, find the common ratio. {0.45, 0.9, 1.8, ...}

erma4kov [3.2K]

0.45 times what=0.90?
seems to be 2
for
$a_n$ and $a_{n+1}$ , (1 term and the next)
common ratio= $\frac{a_n}{a_{n+1}}$
0.45 and 0.9
0.9/0.45=2
common ratio is 2

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$\boxed{\bold{x=\frac{1}{3}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine Similar Elements: $\bold{-12x+39x-18x=9x}$

$\bold{14+9x=256-60x-657x}$

Combine Similar Elements: $\bold{-60x-657x=-717x}$

$\bold{14+9x=256-717x}$

Subtract 14 From Both Sides

$\bold{14+9x-14=256-717x-14}$

Simplify

$\bold{9x=-717x+242}$

Add $\bold{717x}$ To Both Sides

$\bold{9x+717x=-717x+242+717x}$

Simplify

$\bold{726x=242}$

Divide Both Sides By $\bold{726}$

$\bold{\frac{726x}{726}=\frac{242}{726}}$

Simplify

$\bold{x=\frac{1}{3}}$
