Answer:

  A:  -2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want some factor k such that k(5x) +(10x) = 0. That is, 5k+10 = 0. The solution to this is k=-2, corresponding to selection A.

k = -2 for sure

I normally multiply 5x+10y=15 by -2 to cancel out the x's.

This is because you can only solve the problem if one of your variables is canceled out and then you solve!

Find the sum of the first 7 terms of the following series, to the nearest integer. 150,60,24...
Sonja [21]

A geometric series is the collection of an unlimited number of terms with a fixed ratio between them. The sum of the first seven terms of the series is 249.

<h3>What is geometrical series?</h3>

A geometric series is the collection of an unlimited number of terms with a fixed ratio between them.

The given series is an geometric series, the details of the series are:

a₁ = 150

r = 60/150 = 0.4

n = 7

The sum of the geometric series is,

S = 150(1-0.4⁶)/(1-0.4)

S = 248.976 ≈ 249

Hence, the sum of the first seven terms of the series is 249.

Form a sequence that has two arithmetic means between 13 and 88.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Correct choice is A

Step-by-step explanation:

For the numbers 13 and 88, find the difference 88-13:

since 88-13=75 and \dfrac{75}{3}=25 (two arithmetic means tells you there will be three intervals), two arithmetic means will be

  • 13+25=38;
  • 38+25=63.

The only correct sequence is 13, 38, 63, 88.
