What is the value of x? 27(x+4)=−6

1 answer:

5 0

First you need to use the distributive property: 27(x+4)=-6
27x+108=-6
then you need to subtract 108 from -6 to
get x alone. 27x= 102

Lastly divide 102 by 27 to finally get x alone: x=3.777

the answer would be: x= 3.77 or 3.8

Hi there!
The correct answer (the statement that is not true): The volume of the smaller cone cannot be determined because it’s height is unknown.
Hope this helps and have a good day :) !

Can someone help me with this?

Answer:

Let 'a' be the first term, 'r' be the common ratio and 'n' be the number of terms

Series = 2+6+18.......= 2+2•3¹+ 2•3².......= 728

Now,

$Sum = \frac{a( {r}^{n} - 1) }{(r - 1)} \\$

So,

$\frac{a( {r}^{n} - 1)}{(r - 1)} = 728 \\ \frac{2( {3}^{n} - 1) }{(3 - 1)} = 728 \\ \frac{2( {3}^{n} - 1) }{2} = 728 \\ {3}^{n} - 1 = 728 \\ {3}^{n}=728+1\\ {3}^{n} = 729 \\ {3}^{n} = {3}^{6} \\ \boxed{ n = 6}$
