6 - 34 + 96 - 384 +... 
a 1 = 6 , a 2 = a 1 * ( - 4 ) ,  a 3 = a 2 * ( - 4 ), a 4 = a 3 * ( - 4)...
a 5 = - 384 * ( - 4 ) = 1,536
a 6 = 1536 * ( - 4 ) = - 6,144
a 7 = - 6,144 * ( - 4 ) = 24,576 
This is a sum of a geometric sequence:
S 7 = 6 - 24 + 96 - 384 + 1,536 - 6,144 + 24,576 = 19,662
Another way to solve this:
S 7 = a 1 * ( r^n - 1) / ( r - 1 ) = 6 * (( - 4) ^7 - 1 )/ (- 4 - 1)=
= 6 * (-16,385) / (-5 ) = 19,662

A motorboat travels 105 kilometers in 3 hours going upstream. It travels 165 kilometers going downstream in the same amount of t
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Rate in still water = 45 km/h

Rate of the current = 10 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rate of the current be x and rate in still water be y.

So the rate of the boat upstream is y - x and the rate downstream = x + y.

Rate upstream = distance / time

y - x = 105/3 = 35 ...... (1)

Rate downstream:

y + x = 165/3 = 55 .......(2)

Adding (1) + (2):

2y = 90

y = 45 km/h.

Using equation (1):

45 - x = 35

x = 45-35 = 10 km/h.

How to convert numbers to scientific notation
Natalka [10]

To convert to scientific notation, start by moving the decimal place in the number until you have a coefficient between 1 and 10; here it is 3.45. The number of places to the left that you had to move the decimal point is the exponent. Here, we had to move the decimal 4 places to the right, so the exponent is -4.

2340000 = 2.34 x 10^6

0.000034= 3.4 x 10^-5

Type the dimensions of a different shaped box that has the same volume
defon

Step-by-step explanation:

120ft³ = 3ft × 4ft × 10ft

120ft³ = 1ft × 1ft × 120ft

120ft³ = 2ft × 2ft × 30ft

120ft³ = 5ft × 3ft × 8ft

...

Taking fractions or mixed numbers as dimensions, you can give infinitely many such shapes with a volume of 120ft³.

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 160 feet . The length of the swimming pool is four times its width. Find the dim
Murrr4er [49]
Formula for Perimeter of Rectangle:

P = 2(L + W)

Plug in 160:

160 = 2(L + W)

L = 4W
So we can plug in '4W' for 'L' in the first equation.
<span>160 = 2(L + W)

160 = 2(4W + W)

Combine like terms:

160 = 2(5W)

160 = 10W

Divide 10 to both sides:

W = 16

Now we can plug this back into any of the two equations to find the length.

L = 4W

L = 4(16)

L = 64

So the width is 16, and the length is 64.</span>
