The sum of the terms of a geometric sequence with common ratio lesser than 1 is calculated through the equation,

                                  Sn = (a1) x (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)
Substituting the known values,
                                 S5 = (6) x (1 - (1/3)^5) / (1 - 1/3) = 242/27
Thus, the sum of the first five terms is approximately equal to 8.96.

Write and solve an equation to find your final score. Use x to represent your final score.
attashe74 [19]
Let your final bowling score be x. It is 14 pins less than your friends final score. Your friends final bowling score is 105. Then x is 14 pins less than 105.
1 way: This means that 105 is greater than x by 14. Mathematically,
105-x=14,
-x=14-105,
-x=-91,
x=91.
2 way: When you add 14 to x, you'll get 105.
x+14=105,
x=105-14,
x=91.
Answer: Your final score is 91.

Segment AB has endpoints A(–4, 6) and B(1, 4). After a dilation, centered at the origin, the image of A is (–6, 9). Without meas
Ksivusya [100]
With A and its image one can get the dilation factor;
That is dilation scale factor = -6/-4 or 9/6 = 3/2
Therefore, to get the image of B we multiply the coordinates of B by the dilation factor; 
(1,4) 3/2 = (1.5, 6)
Thus the image of B = (1.5,6)
