Jay on started off his penny collection with 1 penny. He then adds 5 pennies to his collection each day. How could you change th

Answer:

By doubling each day

Step-by-step explanation:

Jay is increasing  daily a fixed amount of pennies to his collection.  That's an arithmetic series, because to obtain the next term you have to do an addition.

To get a geometric series or progression you have to find the next term through multiplication.

So, if he wants to convert his series into a geometric series, he'd have to double his contribution to his collection each day (as an example).

Pani-rosa [81]
Cos (π/2 - x) = sin x = 3/5
tan x = sin x / cos x = 3/5 / 4/5 = 3/4
csc x = 1/sin x = 1 / 3/5 = 5/3
sec x = 1/cos x = 1 / 4/5 = 5/4
cot x = 1/tan x = 1 / 3/4 = 4/3.

Triangle ABC is isosceles with AB=CB. Circle M is inscribed in Triangle ABC such that it is tangent at points D, E, and F. If th
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The answer is "12 inches".

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the image file of the graph.

We know AE = CF \ and \ EB = FB so because the triangle is isosceles.

EB = 2x, FB = 2x,\ and \ CF = x when AE is called by x.

We know that AE = AD = x since E and D are tangent points to a circle.

They have CD = CF = x since D and F are tangent points only to circle.

Thus, if the perimeter is 32, the following is the result:

\to AE + EB + BF + FC + CD + DA = 32\\\\\to x + 2x + 2x + x + x + x = 32\\\\\to 8x = 32\\\\\to x = 4

Therefore the length of BC = BF + FC = 2x + x = 3x = 12\  inches

Jane says that she can use addition to show that the graphs of 2x - 3y = 1 and 2x + 3y = 2 are intersecting lines. In two or mor
iogann1982 [59]
For this case we have the following equations:
 2x - 3y = 1
 2x + 3y = 2
 When adding both equations we observe that:
 Sentence 1: we have an equation of a variable, which in this case will be x. We can clear the value of x.
 Sentence 2: Knowing the value of x, we can substitute in any equation and find the value of y.
 Sentence 3: The value of x and y represents the point of intersection of both lines (x, y).
