Formula of the sum of the 1st nth term in a Geometric Progression:
Sum = a₁(1-rⁿ)/(1-r), where a₁ = 1st term, r = common ratio and n= rank nth of term (r≠1)
Sum = (-11)[1-(-5⁸)] /[(1-(-5)]
Sum = (-11)(1- 390625)/(6)
SUM = 716,144
Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Finding x for which 3b = 5a:
- 3(4x - 7) = 5(2x + 3)
- 12x - 21 = 10x + 15
- 12x - 10x = 15 + 21
- 2x = 36
- x = 36/2
- x = 18
It's either $4200 or $1200...
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
8x-28-2x=-10
We move all terms to the left:
8x-28-2x-(-10)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
6x-18=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
6x=18
x=18/6
x=3
