Answer:
1 : 12 : 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A, G, C represent the ages of Alex, George, and Carl, respectively. We are told that ...
A = G +12
C = 3A . . . . . . . we read this as "3 times as old"; not "3 times older"
A + G + C = 68
Substituting for G and C, we have ...
A + (A -12) +(3A) = 68
5A = 80 . . . . . add 12
A = 16 . . . . . . . divide by 5
The other ages are then ...
G = A-12 = 16 -12 = 4
C = 3A = 3·16 = 48
The ratios are ...
G : C : A = 4 : 48 : 16
G : C : A = 1 : 12 : 4
Answer:
the word similar means when to things are alike, it compares to congruent because congruent means thing are in harmony.
Things I would say are similar is a blanket and a sheet because they both provide coverage and warmth.
If I said things are similar it is because they are alike in meanings, or appearence.
I would use similar over congruent because congruent isn't a word you hear often. When you do hear it is mostly used to talk about angles and lines.
Sn=sum of the n terms of the geometric sequence.
a= the first term
r=the common ratio
n=numbers of terms.
Sn=a[(1-r^n)/(1-r)]
In this case:
a=-3
r=a₂/a₁=15/-3=-5
n=9
S₉=-3[(1-(-5)⁹) / (1-(-5))=
S₉=-3(1+1953125)/6)=
S₉=-3(1953126/6)=
S₉=-3(325521)
S₉=-976563

Steps:
(x-2)=4x
Pretend that there is a one in front of x-2
1(x-2)=4x
Multiply the bracket by 1
x-2=4x
Move x to the other side .Whenever you move a number or letter the sign changes.
x-x-2=4x-x
-2=3x
Divide by 3 for -2 and 3
-2/3=3/3 x
x=-2/3
Check answer by using substitution method
(-2/3-2)=4(-2/3)
(-2/3-6/3)=-8/3
-8/3=-8/3
Answer is -2/3
Answer:
4/3
