Let's take another look at the question:
If 4 is subtracted from twice a number the result is 10 less than the number.
let x = the number
"if 4 is subtracted from" is the same as
-4
"from twice a number" is the same as
2x
so put them together,
2x-4
"the result is"
=
2x-4=
10 less than
-10
the number
x
2x-4=x-10
now we find x
subtract x from both sides to get
x-4=-10
add 4 to both sides to get
x=-6
to check, plug in the value of x into the original equation

First we can make an equation out of this statement. 2x-4=x-10 and now we will solve it 2x-4=x-10 2x-x=-10+4 X=-10+4=-6

Find the sum of the finite geometric series: 5 + 10 + 20 + ... +81,920.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by  2  gives the next term. In other words,  <em>a n +a1 ⋅ r n -1</em><em> </em>

Geometric Sequence:<em>  </em><em>r = 2</em>

The series given has a value of<em>  </em><em>r  </em>such that <em>r  >  1  or   r  <  −  1.</em> Therefore, the infinite sum cannot be calculated.<em> </em>
