translate each statement into mathematical language

 

length is nine inches less than twice width.    L = 2W - 9

perimeter is 84 inches                                   2L +2W = 84

 

Substitute the expression for L (2W-9) for L in the second equation resulting in the follwing

 

2(2W-9) + 2W = 84

 

4W - 18 + 2W = 84

 

(4W+2W) = 84+18  

6W =  102

W = 102/6 = 51/3

 

L = 2(51/3) - 9

= L= 17-9

L=6

An infinite geometric series has 1 and 1/5 as its first two terms: 1, 1/5, 1/25, 1/125, . . . What is the sum, S, of the infinit
dezoksy [38]

Answer:  \dfrac{5}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The first term of Geometric series : a=1

The seconds term of Geometric series : ar=\dfrac{1}{5}

The common ratio between the terms is given by :-

r=\dfrac{ar}{a}=\dfrac{\frac{1}{5}}{1}=\dfrac{1}{5}

We know that the sum of infinite geometric series is given by :-

S_{\infty}=\dfrac{a}{1-r}\\\\\Rightarrow\ S_{\infty}=\dfrac{1}{1-\frac{1}{5}}=\dfrac{1}{\frac{4}{5}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ S_{\infty}=\dfrac{5}{4}

Hence, the sum of the given infinite series = \dfrac{5}{4}

How would you solve 7c + 12 = -4c + 78
Svetach [21]
Hello!

7c+12 =-4c+78
 \\ 11c=66 \\ 
c=6

First we will get the variable in the correct side.
add 4c to 7c.
Second thing you will do is subtract 12 from 78

Now, divide 66 by 11 and you'll be left with c=6
