Answer:
The common difference (or common ratio) = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let the first term be
= 80
ii) let the second term be
=
. r = 80 × r = 60 ∴ r =
= 0.75
iii) let the third term be
=
. r = 60 × r = 45 ∴ r =
= 0.75
iv) let the fourth term be
=
. r = 45 × r = 33.75 ∴ r =
= 0.75
Therefore we can see that the series of numbers are part of a geometric progression and the first term is 80 and the common ratio = 0.75.
Answer: "<span>
in²</span> " .
{that is: "
(2/15) in² . "}.
___________________________________________Explanation:___________________________________________The formula/equation for the Area of a rectangle: A = L * w ; in which: L = <span>
⅖ in ;
</span> w = ⅓ in;
___________________________Find the area; in a "fraction value" ;_______________________________ A = L * w ; → Substitute the given values for "L" (length) and "w" (width);
and solve for "A" (area) in the "form of a fraction:
__________________________________________________
A = (2/15) in * (1/3) in ;
→ A = [(2*1) / (5*3)] * in * in ;
______________________________________________________→ Answer: The area is: "
in² " .
{that is, "
(2/15) in² " .
}.

<span>x + 9 = 2(x - 1)^2
x + 9 = 2(x^2 - 2x + 1)
x + 9 = 2x^2 - 4x + 2
</span>2x^2 - 4x + 2 - x - 9 = 0
2x^2 - 5x -7 =0
