Which value of x solves the equation below?

Explain why 4×3/5 equals 12 /5. draw a picture

BigorU [14]

Are you serious? oh well..

ok, draw a circle. devide the circle into 5 parts. color in 3 of the parts.

Now, draw 4 more of these.

Now, count the pieces.

Identify the following sequences as arithmetic, geometric, or neither. For the arithmetic and geometric sequences, identify the

Lapatulllka [165]

Hence,

a. 12, 144, 1728,.. => Geometric

b. 0,5, 10, 15, 20, 25,... => Arithmetic

c. 0,4, 16, 36, 64,... => Neither arithmetic nor geometric

d. 1.5, 2.25, 3.375, 5.0625,... => Geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to identify the sequence as geometric or arithmetic sequence, we find the common difference and common ratio of the sequence. If the common difference is same, it is an arithmetic sequence and if the common ratio is same the sequence is a geometric sequence

Common difference is the difference between consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence and common ration is the ratio between two consecutive terms of a sequence

So,

a. 12, 144, 1728,..

Here,

$a_1=12\\a_2=144\\a_2=1728$

Common difference:

$d=a_2-a_1 = 144-12 = 132\\=a_3-a_2 = 1728-144=1584$

Common Ratio:

$r=\frac{a_2}{a_1} =\frac{144}{12} = 12\\=\frac{a_3}{a_2}=\frac{1728}{144} =12$

As the common ratio is same, the given sequence is a geometric sequence.

b. 0,5, 10, 15, 20, 25,...

Here,

$a_1 = 0\\a_2 =5\\a_3 =10$

Common difference:

$d=a_2-a_1 = 5-0 = 5\\d=a_3-a_2 = 10-5 = 5$

As the common difference is same, the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence

c. 0,4, 16, 36, 64,...

Here

$a_1 = 0\\a_2 =4\\a_3 = 16\\a_4 = 36$

Common Difference:

$d= a_2-a_1 = 4-0 = 4\\a_3-a_2 = 16-4 = 12$

Common Ratio:

$r=\frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{4}{0} = Doesn't\ exist$

Neither the common ratio nor common difference are same, so the given sequence is neither arithmetic nor geometric

d. 1.5, 2.25, 3.375, 5.0625,...

Here

$a_1 = 1.5\\a_2 = 2.25\\a_3 = 3.375$

Common Difference:

$d=a_2-a_1 = 2.25-1.5 = 0.75\\a_3-a_2 =3.375-2.25 = 1.125[/tex]Common Ratio: [tex]r=\frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{2.25}{1.5}=1.5\\=\frac{a_3}{a_2} =\frac{3.375}{2.25}=1.5$

As the common ratio is same, given sequence is geometric

Hence,

a. 12, 144, 1728,.. => Geometric

b. 0,5, 10, 15, 20, 25,... => Arithmetic

c. 0,4, 16, 36, 64,... => Neither arithmetic nor geometric

d. 1.5, 2.25, 3.375, 5.0625,... => Geometric

Complete the equation of the line through (-9,-9) and (-6,0)

Rudik [331]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis.

According to the data of the statement we have the following points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 9, -9)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 6,0)$

We found the slope:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0 - (- 9)} {- 6 - (- 9)} = \frac { 9} {- 6 + 9} = \frac {9} {3} = 3$

Thus, the equation is of the form:

$y = 3x + b$

We substitute one of the points and find b:

$0 = 3 (-6) + b\\0 = -18 + b\\b = 18$

Finally, the equation is:

$y = 3x + 18$

Answer:

$y = 3x + 18$

Two companies Company A and Company B offer the same starting salary of $20,000 per year. Company A gives a raise of $1000 each

Bingel [31]

A.) A = 20000 + 1000n
B = 20000(1.04)^n

b.) For A, sn = n/2(2a + (n - 1)d)
s20 = 20/2(2(20000) + 1000(20 - 1)) = 10(40000 + 19(1000)) = 10(40000 + 19000) = 10(59000) = $590,000
For B, sn = a(r^n - 1)/(r - 1)
s20 = 20000((1.04)^20 - 1)/(1.04 - 1) = 20000(2.191 - 1)/0.04 = 20000(1.191)/0.04 = 23822.46 / 0.04 = $595,561.57

c.) Using a graphing calculator, it takes 18 years for the
total amount earned a company B is greater that the total amount of earned at company A.
