Answer:

X: 5 Feet

Y: 9 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

( Y represents the height of the medium tree)

we know the height of tree x is half of the 10 ft tree so that means tree x is 5 feet tall

10 + 5 + y = 24

15 + y = 24

y = 9

Hope this helped :)

Find x so that x, X +2, X'+3 are the first three terms of a geometric sequence. Then find the 5" term of the

velikii [3]

Answer:

The fifth term is -1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the first three terms of the geometric sequence is x, x + 2, and x + 3.

So, our first term is x.

Then our second term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio r. So:

$x+2=xr$

And our third term will be our first term multiplied by the common ratio r twice. Therefore:

$x+3=xr^2$

Solve for x. From the second term, we can divide both sides by x:

$\displaystyle r=\frac{x+2}{x}$

Substitute this into the third equation:

$\displaystyle x+3=x\Big(\frac{x+2}{x}\Big)^2$

Square:

$\displaystyle x+3 = x\Big( \frac{(x+2)^2}{x^2} \Big)$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle x+3=\frac{(x+2)^2}{x}$

We can multiply both sides by x:

$x(x+3)=(x+2)^2$

Expand:

$x^2+3x=x^2+4x+4$

Isolate the x:

$-x=4$

Hence, our first term is:

$x=-4$

Then our common ratio r is:

$\displaystyle r=\frac{(-4)+2}{-4}=\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac{1}{2}$

So, our first term is -4 and our common ratio is 1/2.

Then our sequence will be -4, -2, -1, -1/2, -1/4.

You can verify that the first three terms indeed follow the pattern of x, x + 2, and x + 3.

So, our fifth term is -1/4.

Help asap I will give u huge amount of brainly points

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf -\dfrac{5}{8}}$

Use BODMAS rule,

where:

brackets
order
division
multiplication
addition
subtraction

Given expression:

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{1}{5} \times [\:4-14\times\left(\dfrac{1}{4} \right)^2]$

simplify exponent

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{1}{5} \times [\:4-14\times\left(\dfrac{1}{16} \right)]$

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{1}{5} \times [\:4-\(\dfrac{14}{16}]$

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{1}{5} \times [\:4-\(\dfrac{7}{8}]$

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{1}{5} \times [\:\dfrac{32}{8} -\(\dfrac{7}{8}]$

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{1}{5} \times [\:\dfrac{25}{8}]$

multiply fractions

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{25}{40}$

$\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{5}{8}$

Square of (1\4A+1\4B)^2

miskamm [114]

Answer:4a = 2⋅(2a)⋅1 4 a = 2 ⋅ ( 2 a) ⋅ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor 4a^2-4a+1. 4a2 − 4a + 1 4 a 2 - 4 a + 1. Rewrite 4a2 4 a 2 as (2a)2 ( 2 a) 2. (2a)2 − 4a+1 ( 2 a) 2 - 4 a + 1. Rewrite 1 1 as 12 1 2. (2a)2 − 4a+12 ( 2 a) 2 - 4 a + 1 2. Check that the middle term is two times the product of the numbers being squared in the first term and third term. 4a = 2⋅(2a)⋅1 4 a = 2 ⋅ ( 2 a) ⋅ 1.
