Answer:

x = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{5} x = \frac{5}{6}\\\frac{1}{5} x =\frac{5}{6} -\frac{2}{3} \\\frac{1}{5} x =\frac{5-4}{6} \\\frac{1}{5} x =\frac{1}{6} \\x = \frac{1}{6} * \frac{5}{1} \\x = \frac{5}{6}

Answer:x = 6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

2/3+1/5x=5/6

The Lowest common multiple of 2, 5x and 6 is 30x. We would multiply the left hand side of the equation and the right hand side of the equation by 30x. It becomes

2/3 × 30x + 1/5x × 30x = 5/6 × 30x

= 20x + 6 = 25x

Subtracting 20x from the left hand side and and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

20x - 20x + 6 = 25x - 20x

5x = 6

x = 6/5

Let area of triangle AEC = x

Area of triangle BAC = 1/2 * 15 * 12 = 90

Area of triangle DCA = 1/2 * 15 * 6 = 45

90 = p + x and

45 = q + x Subtracting the 2 equations:-

90 - 45 = p - q

Answer p - q = 45

Joe can weed the garden twice as fast as his sister Janet. Together they can weed the garden in 2 hours. How long would it take
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Joe: 3 hrs

Janet: 6hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

joe takes x hours

so in 1 hr he does 1/x of the garden

janet takes 2x hours

so in 1 hr she does 1/(2x) of the garden

In one hour together they do 1/2 of the garden

1/x + 1/(2x) = 1/2

2/(2x) + 1/(2x) = 1/2

3/(2x) = 1/2

Cross multiply

6 = 2x

x = 3

Joe: 3 hrs

Janet: 6hrs

Enter a recursive rule for the geometric sequence. 6, −18, 54, −162, ...
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The required recursive formula is:

a_n=(-3)\times a_{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a geometric sequence as:

6,-18,54,-162,.....

Clearly after looking at different terms of the sequence we could observe that the sequence is an geometric progression (G.P.) with common ratio= -3 denoted by r.

Let a_n represents the nth term of the sequence.

This means that:

a_1=6, a_2=-18, a_3=54, a_4=-162,......

As the common ratio is -3.

so,

a_1=6\\\\a_2=-18=(-3)\times a_1\\\\a_3=54=(-3)\times a_2\\\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.\\.a_n=(-3)\times a_{n-1}

Hence, the required recursive formula for the geometric sequence is:

a_n=(-3)\times a_{n-1}
