Answer:

a₁ = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is

S_{n} = \frac{a_{1}(r^{n}-1)  }{r-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here S_{8} = 1530 and r = 2, thus

\frac{a_{1}(2^{8}-1)  }{2-1} = 1530 , that is

a₁ (256 - 1) = 1530

255a₁ = 1530 ( divide both sides by 255 )

a₁ = 6

Two common names for streets are FirstFirst Street and MainMain ​Street, with 14 comma 86614,866 streets bearing one of these
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:  There are 7,677 streets named as " First Street" and 7, 189 streets named as  "Main Street" .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of streets named as First Street .

y be the number of streets named as Main Street.

AS per the given information, we have the following system of equations :

x+y=14866-------------(1)\\\\x=488+y-------------(2)

Substitute the value of x from (2) in (1) , we get

488+y+y=14866\\\\ 2y =14866- 488\\\\ 2y=14378\\\\ y=7189

Put value of y in (2), we get

x=488+7189=7677

Hence , there are 7,677 streets named as " First Street" and 7, 189 streets named as  "Main Street" .

eduard

Answer:

Choice 3

Step-by-step explanation:

add 63 and 64 which gives you 127. Then you subtract 180 and 127. This gives you 53. 63+53+64=180. Know that the angle is 180 degrees too so you don't even have to do math.
