Answer

9/20

Step by Step

I got this by turning the 1/4 into a 5/20 and then turned the 1/5 into a 4/20 and then added from there

5/20+4/20=9/20

You have to turn the fractions denominator into the same number by finding the lowest common denominator.

The first 5 terms of a sequence are shown below:

nirvana33 [79]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the formula for the nth term ,

First , find the common difference or common ratio.

Common difference =

$T_2-T_1 \\ - 2 - 3 \\ = - 5$

Common ratio =

$T_2/T_1 \\ \frac{ - 2}{3}$

The common difference applies to the other given numbers for example :

$T_3- T_2 = - 7 - ( - 2) \\ = - 7 + 2 = - 5$

this proves that it is an arithmetic sequence and the given formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

T_n =a(n-1)d

Where n = no of terms

a= first term

d= common difference

If ab = c - d, which of the following is an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c?

horsena [70]

ANSWER

$d = - ab + c$

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

$ab = c - d$

To find an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c, means we want to make d the subject of the relation.

This means that, we need to isolate d on one side of the equation while all other terms are on the other side.

We subtract from both sides of the equation to obtain,

$ab - c = - d$

We now divide through by -1, to get,

$- ab + c = d$

Or

$d = - ab + c$

The topic is change of subject

Calculate the number of subsets and the number of proper subsets for the set.

arlik [135]

A set of n elements has 2ⁿ subsets. One of these subsets is the set itself, so this set would have 2ⁿ - 1 <em>proper</em> subsets.

The given set has 4 elements, so it has 2⁴ = 16 subsets and 2⁴ - 1 = 15 proper subsets.

Just to illustrate the claim, we have

• subsets of size 0 (1 of these):

{ } (empty set)

• subsets of size 1 (4 of these):

{1/6}, {1/7}, {1/8}, {1/9}

• subsets of size 2 (6 of these):

{1/6, 1/7}, {1/6, 1/8}, {1/6, 1/9}, {1/7, 1/8}, {1/7, 1/9}, {1/8, 1/9}

• subsets of size 3 (4 of these):

{1/6, 1/7, 1/8}, {1/6, 1/7, 1/9}, {1/6, 1/8, 1/9}, {1/7, 1/8, 1/9}

• subsets of size 4 (1 of these):

{1/6, 1/7, 1/8, 1/9}

and the last one is the only subset that is not a proper subset, because that subset = the set.

Jan buys 3 bags of beads. Each bag contains 7 beads. Draw a bar diagram and write an addition equation and a multiplication equa

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

- The diagram bar is attached.

- Addition equation: $7+7+7=21$

- Multiplication equation: $(3)(7)=21$

- How are the equation related? Each equation shows 3 groups of 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Jan buys 3 bags of beads and each bag contains 7 beads, then, you can draw the bar diagram shown attached.

Observe that the diagram has 3 blocks (each block represents a bag of bead) and there is a number 7 inside of each block (which is the number of beads contained in a bag).

Therefore:

- Add the numbers inside the blocks in order to get the addition equation that shows the number of beads Jan buys. This is:

$7+7+7=21$

- Multiply 3 blocks by 7 in order to get multiplication equation that show the number of beads Jan buys:

$(3)(7)=21$

The equations are related. Each one shows 3 groups of 7.
