2/7x - 2/5x = 8
multiply both sides by 35
= 10x - 14x = 280
combine 10x and 14x
= -4x = 280
divide both sides by -4
x= -70

Consider a sequence who’s first three terms are 5,15,45... write an equation for this sequence in explicit form
Burka [1]

Answer:Answer:

y=x*3

Step-by-step explanation

step one: find how many times dose 5 go into 15

15/5=3

then we can do the same thing to see how many 15's can go into 45

45/15=3

therefore, the answer is 3

Help me to find the answer of iii
Vinil7 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess, the silent request here is that there will be no wire left after the 10th square.

and I guess, the following square does not reuse one side of the previous square. all squares are "standalone".

T stands for area ? well, ok.

when the side length doubles, the area quadruples (the area is side×side, and factor 2 × factor 2 = factor 4). but the perimeter still only doubles.

T1 = x × x = x²

T2 = x×2 × x×2 = x² × 4 = T1 × 4

Tn = Tn-1 × 4 = T1 × 4^(n-1) = x² × 4^(n-1)

so, Tn/Tn-1 = 4

but the geometric series for the perimeter is

p1 = 4x

pn = pn-1 × 2 = x × 2^(n+1)

and pn/pn-1 = 2

the sum of a finite geometric series with n elements is

s = p1 × (1 - r^(n))/(1 - r)

r is the common factor. in our case it is 2.

and we have 10 elements.

so, we know

8184 = 4x × (1 - 2^(10))/(1 ‐ 2) = 4x × (1-2¹⁰)/-1 =

= 4x × -1023 / - 1 = 4x × 1023

2046 = x × 1023

x = 2046/1023 = 2 cm

so, now finally for iii)

T10 (the last, biggest square) = x² × 4⁹ = 4×4⁹ = 4¹⁰ =

= 1,048,576 cm²
