Answer:

-46

Step-by-step explanation:

(hello, I just answered your previous question--some stuff will sound similar because we are applying the same concept :)  )

We know that the nth term of the sequence is 18 - 8n

the "nth" term of a sequence means that you can plug in the term place to get the term value (ex. if the nth term is n + 2, we can plug any term in {let's say, the eighth term, 8 + 2 = 10 ; to get our term's value}  )

  18 - 8n is sequence

  18 - 8(8) is 8th term

  18 - 64 is 8th term

 -46 is the 8th term

hope this helps!! :)

23. Kelvin travelled of his journey at 45 km/h and of the remaining journey at 90 km/h. The rest of his journey was completed in
Sonja [21]

Answer:

4.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

we first need to calculate the total distance he covered and total time taken whole for the journey.

Distance= speed X time

time = Distance/speed

let the total distance be X. he covers 2/5 if the journey first.

2/5 = 0.4

Time = 0.4x/45 hours

the remaining journey is 3/5x

he covers 1/3 X 3/5= 0.2x

time taken = 0.2/90 X hours

the remaining distance = 100× 1.2 = 120km

we add 0.4x + 0.2x to get the fraction he had covered

0.6x.

the remaining distance was X - 0.6x = 0.4 X

thus 120 km represents 0.4x of the journey

we calculate now the value of X

0.4x = 120

X = 300km

Total time taken = 0.4x/45 + 0.2/90 + 1.2 hours

replace X to get time

2.7 hours + 0.7 hours + 1.2 hours

= 4.6 hours

Could someone do all the problems and/or check my work?
MArishka [77]
11. You’ve done it correctly

12. Let x^2=y
y^2+13y+40=0
(y+8)(y+5)=0
y=8, 5
Since y=x^2
x^2=8 x^2=5
x=+/-√5 x= +/-2√2

13. x^4-x^2-x^2-8=0
x^4-2x^2-8=0
let x^2=y
Y^2-2y-8=0
(y-4)(y+2)=0
y=4, -2
Since y=x^2
X^2=4 X^2=-2
X= +/- 2 This wouldn’t be a real solution

14. It’s pretty much the same process, just substitute y in for x^2. If you’re confused feel free to ask and I can do it, or you can put it through Photomath

15. You’re on the right track so I’m just going to continue from where you left off
x^2(4x+5)-4(x+5)=0
(x^2-4)(4x+5)=0
x= +/- 2 4x=5
x=5/4 or 1 1/4

Hope this helped :)
