Answer:
Both will be at the same page after 6.5 days and the page number will be 180.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let after x days Nora and Lila will be at the same page.
Nora is on page 128 and plans to read 8 pages per day until the next club meeting.
After x days Nora will be at the page number = 128 + 8x
Similarly, Lila is on page 102 and she reads 12 pages per day.
After x days Lila will be on page number = 102 + 12x
Since after x days they will be at the same page
Therefore, 128 + 8x = 102 + 12x
12x - 8x = 128 - 102
4x = 26
x =
x = 6.5 days
Page number they will be on = 128 + 8(6.5)
= 128 + 52
= 180
Both will be at the same page after 6.5 days and the page number will be 180.
An aritmetic sequence is like this
where a1=first term and d=common difference
geometric is
where a1=first term and r=common ratio
can it be both aritmetic and geometric
hmm, that means that the starting terms should be the same
therfor we need to solve
what values of d and r make all natural numbers of n true?
are there values that make all natural numbers for n true?
when n=1, then d(1-1)=0 and r^(1-1)=1, so already they are not equal
the answer is no, a sequence cannot be both aritmetic and geometric
