Answer:

The value of a is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to add 3 to both sides :

$2a - 3 + 3 = - 5 + 3$

$2a = - 2$

Next, you have to divide both sides by 2 :

$2a \div 2 = - 2 \div 2$

$a = - 1$

The distance traveled by a falling object is given by the formula d = 0.5gt2 where d = distance, g = the force of gravity, and t

Alina [70]

D = 0.5gt^2
2d = gt^2
g = 2d/t^2

when t = 10 s, and d = 490 feet,
g = 2(490)/10^2 = 980/100 = 9.8 feet/s

Find the sum of the following geometric sequences. d) 3 terms a= 16 r=3/4

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

S₃ = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

given a₁ = 16 and r = $\frac{3}{4}$ , then

a₂ = a₁ × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 16 × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 12

a₃ = a₂ × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 12 × $\frac{3}{4}$ = 9

then

S₃ = a₁ + a₂ + a₃ = 16 + 12 + 9 = 37
