Answer: 47/8

Step-by-step explanation: To write a mixed number as an improper fraction, first multiply the denominator by the whole number and then add the numerator. Finally, we will put our new number over our old denominator and we have our answer which is 47/8.

Therefore, 5\frac{7}{8} can be rewritten as the improper fraction 47/8.

If r = -\sqrt{2}, and a5 = \sqrt{2}, what is the first term of the sequence?
shepuryov [24]

Answer: C

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent the first term (a₁)

a₁ = x

a₂ = x(-√2)  = -x√2

a₃ = -x√2(-√2)  = 2x

a₄ = 2x(-√2)   = -2x√2

a₅ = -2x√2(-√2)   = 4x

Since it is given the a₅ = √2, then we  can solve: 4x =√2

Divide both sides by 4 to get: x = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}

this can also be written as: \frac{1}{4}\sqrt{2}

The flight of a cannonball toward a hill is described by the parabola y = 2 + 0.12x - 0.002x 2 . the hill slopes upward along a
Alexandra [31]

To find where on the hill the canonball lands 
So 0.15x = 2 + 0.12x - 0.002x^2 
Taking the LHS expression to the right and rearranging we have -0.002x^2 + 0.12x -
0.15x + 2 = 0. 
So we have -0.002x^2 - 0.03x + 2 = 0  
I'll multiply through by -1 so we have
 0.002x^2 + 0.03x -2 = 0. 
This is a quadratic eqn with two solutions x1 = 25 and x2 = -40 since x cannot be negative x = 25. The second solution y = 0.15 * 25 = 3.75

How many solutions exist for the given equation? StartFraction one-half left-parenthesis x plus 12 right-parenthesis equals 4 x
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

One solution x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

\dfrac{1}{2}(x+12)=4x-1

Multiply this equation by 2:

2\cdot \dfrac{1}{2}(x+12)=2\cdot (4x-1)\\ \\x+12=2(4x-1)

Use distributive property:

x+12=8x-2

Combine the like terms:

x+12=8x-2\\ \\x+12-12=8x-2-12\\ \\x=8x-14\\ \\x-8x=8x-14-8x\\ \\-7x=-14\\ \\7x=14\\ \\x=2

Thus, this equation has one solution x = 2
