Solve as a proportion:

\frac{9}{12}=  \frac{3}{x}

x = ?

Cross multiply:-

3 × 12 = 36

Divide:-

36 ÷ 9 = x
36 ÷ 9 = 4
x = 4

9/12 = 3/4

The unknown denominator is 4. <span />

Do cross multiplication.

9              3
__   =        __
12            x

12×3=36. So now you found that out you will do a equation. Solve it.

9x=36
÷9   ÷9
________
x= 4

Now you got what the unknown denominator is. It's x=4. So 4.

Given the sequence 1/2 ; 4 ; 1/4 ; 7 ; 1/8 ; 10;.. calculate the sum of 50 terms
miv72 [106K]

<u>Hint </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • Break the given sequence into two parts .
  • Notice the terms at gap of one term beginning from the first term .They are like \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{8} . Next term is obtained by multiplying half to the previous term .
  • Notice the terms beginning from 2nd term , 4,7,10,13 . Next term is obtained by adding 3 to the previous term .

<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

We need to find out the sum of 50 terms of the given sequence . After splitting the given sequence ,

\implies S_1 = \dfrac{1}{2},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{8} .

We can see that this is in <u>Geometric</u><u> </u><u>Progression </u> where 1/2 is the common ratio . Calculating the sum of 25 terms , we have ,

\implies S_1 = a\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \\\\\implies S_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\left[ \dfrac{1-\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^{25}}{1-\dfrac{1}{2}}\right]

Notice the term \dfrac{1}{2^{25}} will be too small , so we can neglect it and take its approximation as 0 .

\implies S_1\approx \cancel{ \dfrac{1}{2} } \left[ \dfrac{1-0}{\cancel{\dfrac{1}{2} }}\right]

\\\implies \boxed{ S_1 \approx 1 }

\rule{200}2

Now the second sequence is in Arithmetic Progression , with common difference = 3 .

\implies S_2=\dfrac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]

Substitute ,

\implies S_2=\dfrac{25}{2}[2(4) + (25-1)3] =\boxed{ 908}

Hence sum = 908 + 1 = 909

Solve the equation for a.
katrin [286]

Answer:

a= \frac{k}{9b+4}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you would solve for "a".

Solve:

K = 4a + 9ab

Since we have our "a" on the same side, we can factor it out from the variables:

K = a(9b + 4)

To get "a" by itself, we would have to divide both sides by 9b + 4:

K/9b+ 4 = a

Your answer would be K/9b+ 4 = a

It would look like this: a= \frac{k}{9b+4}
