Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given
sequence is geometric
so, we can use nth term formula
we have
we have to find a9
so, we can plug n=9
we get
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. distribute 9 in 9(x+1)
9x + 9 = 25 + x
2. subtract x from the right side to isolate x onto one side
8x + 9 = 25
3. subtract 9 from the left side
8x = 16
4. divide both sides by 8 to get x alone
x = 2
Answer: 21 shifts
Explanation:
If you want to have nurses on duty 24 hours a day 8 hours at a time, first divide 24 by 8. You get 3, which is the amount of shifts per day. Then multiply 3 by the amount of days in a week, 7, and get 21 shifts per week. Hope this helps!
Let x be the yard length, then if <span>the length of the yard is 10 feet more than 2 times the width, the length of the yard is 2x+10. The perimeter is 2 lengths + 2 widths, so P=2x+2(2x+10) .
</span>
Since Sally <span>needs 56 feet of fencing to do the job, P=56 ft. and
</span>
<span>2x+2(2x+10)=56,

Answer:
y = ½(13- x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. Find the<em> slope (m₁) of the original line
</em>
The equation for the original line is
y = 2x - 6
slope = m₁ = 2
Step 2. Find the <em>slope (m₂) of the perpendicular line
</em>
m₂ = -1/m₁ Substitute the value of m₁
m₂ = -1/2
Step 3. Find the <em>equation for the perpendicular line</em>
y = mx + b Substitute the value of m₂
y = -½x + b
The line passes through (5, 4).
4 = -½(5) + b Add 5/2 to each side
4 = -5/2 + b Add 2 to each side
b = 13/2
y = -½x + 13/2
y = ½(13 – x)
In the image, below, the red line is the graph of your original equation.
The blue line passing through (5, 4) is the perpendicular line.
