Answer:

I think it’s -1.25???? Idk I’m too lazy to check my math

Step-by-step explanation:

You take the 3x and subtract it from both sides. You now have -15 = 4x -10

Then you do +10 to both sides. Now you have -5 = 4x

Divide each side by 4 and you have -1.25 = x

Now check your math.

3 • -1.25 -15 = 7 • -1.25 -10

Given the following geometric sequence, find the common ratio:<br><br> {225, 45, 9...}
Tom [10]

Answer:

\frac{1}{5}  is the common ratio

Step-by-step explanation:

Common ratio(r) states that the ratio of each term of a geometric sequence to the term preceding it.

r = \frac{a_2}{a_1} =\frac{a_3}{a_2}........\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}

Given the sequence:

225, 45, 9, .........

Here,

a_1 = 225

a_2 = 45

a_3 = 9 and so on...

Using definition to find r.

r = \frac{45}{225}=\frac{9}{45}......

After solving we get;

r = \frac{1}{5}

Therefore, the common ratio is, \frac{1}{5}

Solve for x. <br><br> x + 3x + 5 =21
timurjin [86]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for x, we must isolate x on one side of the equation.

x+3x+5=21

First, combine like terms. x and 3x are both terms with variables, and can be combined.

(x+3x) + 5=21

4x + 5=21

5 is being added to 4x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.

4x+5-5= 21-5

4x= 16

x is being multiplied by 4. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4=16/4

x= 16/4

x=4

Let's check our solution. Plug 4 in for x and solve.

x+3x+5=21

4+3(4)+5=21

4+12+5=21

16+5=21

21=21

This solution checks out, so we know our answer is correct.

x is equal to 4, x=4.

The volume of a prism is area of the base times height.
This is a triangular prism. The base is a triangle.
The volume is area of the base times height, and the base is a triangle.
Find the area of the triangle and multiply by the height of the prism.

V  = volume of the prism
A = area of the base
H = height of the prism
h = height of the triangle
b = base of the triangle

V = AH

V = (1/2)bhH

V = (1/2) * 9 ft * 7 ft * 15 ft

V = 472.5 ft^3

Determine the value of each variable in the figure below. Keep answers in simplest<br> radical form.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

  a = 21

  b = 63

  c = 42√3

  d = 21√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a 30°-60°-90° triangle have the ratios 1 : √3 : 2. The given side (42) is the longest side of the smallest triangle, and the shortest side of the largest triangle.

That means the other sides of the smallest triangle will be ...

  a = 42/2 = 21

  a+b = 2(42) = 84

  b = (a+b) -a = 84 -21 = 63

  d = 21√3 . . . . middle-length side of the smallest triangle

  c = 42√3 . . . . middle-length side of the largest triangle

The values of the variables are ...

  • a = 21
  • b = 63
  • c = 42√3
  • d = 21√3
