WHAT IS A GEOMETRIC SEQUENCE?

Mathematics

Anettt [7]3 years ago

<span>"In mathematics, a geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio. For example, the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54, ... is a geometric progression with common ratio 3."

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. a delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a t
Hoochie [10]
Let's let the weight of a large box be L, and the weight of a small box be S.

We know that 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes is 120kg, so:
5L + 3S = 120

We also know that 7 large boxes and 9 small boxes is 234kg, so:
7L + 9S = 234

You can multiply the first equation by 3 to get:
15L + 9S = 360

See how now both equations have 9S? We can now subtract one from the other:
(15L+9S) - (7L+9S) = 360-234
8L = 126
L = 15.75

Now sub this value back into an equation:
(5x15.75) + 3S = 120
3S = 41.25
S = 13.75

Double check these values
(7x15.75) + (9x13.75)
= 110.25 + 123.75
=234, which is consistent with above.

So a large box is 15.75kg, and a small box is 13.75kg.

Hope this helped

Suppose the linear regression line y=2.1x+130 predicts sales based on the money spent on advertising. If x represents the dollar
slega [8]

Linear regression line y=2.1x+130 predicts sales based on the money spent on advertising.

Linear regression represents the relationship between two variables. the value of y depends on the value of x.

x represents the dollars spent in advertising and y represents the company sales in dollars.

We need to find out sales y when $150 spends on advertising.

Plug in 150 for x and find out y

y = 2.1 x + 130

y = 2.1 (150) + 130

y= 445

The company expects $445 in sales

It always seems to rain on the day after July 4th.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The inductive reasoning is based on A: a limited number of observations

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say you lived until 90 years old, and took a observation on July 4th each year. Even if you lived until 90 years old, you would only have 90 observations. And inductive reasoning allows for statements to be false, so any of the 90 observations that you took can be proven false. So really, you would have only 90 observations, with any of them that could be false. A limited number of observations would be the only thing that you could base this reasoning off of.

An ice cream factory makes 100 quarts of ice cream in 5 hours how many quarts could be made in 36 hours
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

720 Quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{100}{5} = \frac{x}{36}

cross multiply

\frac{100}{5}*\frac{36}{36} = \frac{x}{36}*\frac{5}{5}\\\\\frac{3,600}{180}=\frac{5x}{180}

now that they are both divided by 180, we can eliminate it

3,600=5x\\\\\frac{3,600}{5}=\frac{5x}{5}\\\\720=x
