Answer:
-12
Step-by-step explanation:
8x - 2(6 - x)
Substitute 0 for each x
8*0 - 2(6 - 0)
Solve.
0 - 2*6
0 - 12
-12
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Anything to the power of 0 is 1. <em>So</em>,
1 x 1 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
the introduction of a fraction tells us that we are dealing with multiplications, and therefore a geometric sequence (where every new term is created by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor, the ratio r).
I think your teacher made a mistake, or you made one when typing the question in here.
there is no factor r that creates
15×r = 9
and
9×r = 5/27
it would mean that
15 × r² = 5/27
r² = 5/27 / 15 = 5/27 × 1/15 = 5/405 = 1/81
r = 1/9
but 15 × 1/9 = 5 × 1/3 = 5/3 is NOT 9
and 9 × 1/9 = 9/9 = 1 is NOT 5/27
so, this can't be right.
on the other hand
15 × r = 9
r = 9/15 = 3/5
and then
9 × 3/5 = 27/5
so, either the sequence should have been
15, 5/3, 5/27
or (and I suspect this to be true)
15, 9, 27/5
under that assumption we have
s1 = 15
r = 3/5
sn = sn-1 × r = s1 × r^(n-1) = 15 × (3/5)^(n-1)
s10 = 15 × (3/5)⁹ = 15 × 19683/1953125 =
= 3 × 19683/390625 = 59049/390625 =
= 0.15116544 ≈ 0.151

</span>p = 72÷ 8
p = 9

Let's forget for the tie being the cost ($3.5)of the 1st fifth of a mile:
Taxi charge excluding $3.5, is $13.95 - $3.5 = $10.45.
If each of the 5th (1/5) of a mile costs $0.55, then with $10.45 we can drive:
10.45/0.55 = 19 fifth of a mile. Add to that the 1st fifth = 20 fifth of a mile
20 fifth = 20 x 1/5 = 4 miles (answer)
