Christopher swam laps everyday in the town swimming pool. He swam 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks.

45(5)=225 than multiply that by 60 because remember he only swam 5 out of 7 days a week (12x5=60) therefore 225x60= 13,500 minutes to convert to hours divide by 60 which will be 225 hours

Evaluate S5 for 300 + 150 + 75 + … and select the correct answer below. 18.75 93.75 581.25 145.3125

Savatey [412]

we have that

$300 + 150 + 75 +...$

Let

$a1=300\\ a2=150\\ a3=75$

we know that

$\frac{a2}{a1} =\frac{150}{300} \\\\ \frac{a2}{a1}=0.5 \\ \\ a2=a1*0.50$

$\frac{a3}{a2} =\frac{75}{150} \\\\ \frac{a3}{a2}=0.5 \\ \\ a3=a2*0.50$

$a(n+1)=an*0.50$

Is a geometric sequence

Find the value of $a4$

$a(4)=a3*0.50$

$a(4)=75*0.50$

$a(4)=37.5$

Find the value of $a5$

$a(5)=a4*0.50$

$a(5)=37.5*0.50$

$a(5)=18.75$

Find $S5$

$S5=a1+a2+a3+a4+a5\\ S5=300+150+75+37.5+18.75\\ S5=581.25$

therefore

the answer is

$581.25$

Alternative Method

Applying the formula

$S_n=\frac{a_1 (1-r^n)}{1-r} \\\\a_1=300 \\ r=\frac{1}{2}\\\\ S_5=\frac{300(1-(\frac{1}{2})^5)}{1-\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{300(1-\frac{1}{32})}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{300 \times \frac{31}{32}}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{75 \times \frac{31}{8}}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{\frac{2325}{8}}{\frac{1}{2}}\\\\=\frac{2325}{8} \times 2\\\\=\frac{2325}{4}\\\\=581 \frac{1}{4}\\\\=581.25$

therefore

the answer is

$581.25$

Answer:

(x + 3)(3x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x² + 5x - 12

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term.

product = 3 × - 12 = - 36 and sum = + 5

The factors are + 9 and - 4

Use these factors to split the x- term

3x² + 9x - 4x - 12 ( factor first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3x(x + 3) - 4(x + 3) ← factor out (x + 3) from each term

= (x + 3)(3x - 4)

Thus

3x² + 5x - 12 = (x + 3)(3x - 4) ← in factored form

PLEASE HELP ME!

arlik [135]

Answer:

Angle: 22.5 deg, Complement: 67.5 deg, Supplement: 157.5 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

22.5 is 1/3 of 67.5

so compliment is 67.5.

Supplement is just adding another angle so I chose 7.

I did 22.5 x 7 = 157.5

Another example would be:

Angle: 10 deg, Complement: 30 (because 10 x 3), Supplement: 70 (because 10 x 7)

Hope this helps :)
