Answer:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=20
Step-by-step explanation:
Well just cross multiply if its easier
x(3)=3x
12*5=60
60=3x
x=20
Answer:
Option A. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
First term (a) = –3
Common ratio (r) = 6
Sum of series (Sₙ) = –4665
Number of term (n) =?
The number of terms in the series can be obtained as follow:
Sₙ = a[rⁿ – 1] / r – 1
–4665 = –3[6ⁿ – 1] / 6 – 1
–4665 = –3[6ⁿ – 1] / 5
Cross multiply
–4665 × 5 = –3[6ⁿ – 1]
–23325 = –3[6ⁿ – 1]
Divide both side by –3
–23325 / –3 = 6ⁿ – 1
7775 = 6ⁿ – 1
Collect like terms
7775 + 1 = 6ⁿ
7776 = 6ⁿ
Express 7776 in index form with 6 as the base
6⁵ = 6ⁿ
n = 5
Thus, the number of terms in the geometric series is 5.
Since 6 is positive, it's (x+blank)^2
6/2=3, and (x+3)^2 = x^2+6x+9. We have x^2+6x-2, so we have to add 9 to both sides to get (x+3)^2-2=9, then subtract 9 from both sides to get
(x+3)^2-11=0, or (x+3)^2=11. Square root both sides to get x+3=sqrt(11), and x=sqrt(11)-3, which is approximately 0.32
