Answer: 13.722 km ; or, write as: 13 13/18 km .
___________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________________
Area = Length * width ;
___________________________________________________
or, write as: A = L * w ;
________________________

Given: A = 247 km² ;

L = 18 km ;

w = "y" ;
________________________
Find: "y"
______________________________
A = L * w ;
______________________________
Plug in our values:
______________________________
247 km² = 18 km * "y" ; solve for "y" (in units of "km") ;

_____________________________
18 y = 247 ;
___________________________________________________________
Divide each side of the equation by "18"; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" :
___________________________________________________________
18 y / 18 = 247 / 18 ;
_____________________________________________
to get:
_____________________________________________
y = 13.7222222222222222...... km ; round to: 13.722 km

or; y = 13 13/18 km .
_______________________________________________

Determine whether the given sequence could be geometric, arithmetic, or neither. if possible, identify either the common ratio o

REY [17]

ARITHMETIC CHECK: A sequence is said to be arithmetic if any two consecutive terms differ by the same constant.

So, the test to check if a series is arithmetic is to compute consecutive differences, and see if they all return the same number.

If we subtract the first two terms, we have $2-4 = -2$ . If we subtract the third and second terms, we have $1-2 = -1$ .

These two differences returned two different values, so the series is not arithmetic.

GEOMETRIC CHECK: A sequence is said to be geometric if any two consecutive terms are in the same ratio.

So, the test to check if a series is geometric is to compute consecutive ratios, and see if they all return the same number.

If we divide the first two terms, we have

$\dfrac{2}{4} = \dfrac{1}{2}$

If we divide the third and second terms, we have

$\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}$

Finally, if we divide the last two terms we have

$\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{1} = \dfrac{1}{2}$

So, all ratios return the same number. This means that the series is geometric, and the common ratio is 1/2

For the following pair of lines, identify the system by type.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Inconsistent

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equation is said to be inconsistent if the lines are parallel or the system of equations have no solution.

From the given graphs of lines, we can say that the lines are parallel to each other. Hence, the graphs never intersect.

Since, the lines are parallel hence, we can say that there would be no solution for the system of equations.

Therefore, the system is inconsistent.

Hence, third option is the correct option.

If rs =3x + 1, st = 2x- 2 ,and rt = 64,find the value of x

stealth61 [152]

rs + st = rt Plug in the values
3x + 1 + 2x - 2 = 64 Combine like terms (1 and -2)
3x -1 + 2x = 64 Combine like terms (3x and 2x)
-1 + 5x = 64 Add 1 to both sides
5x = 65 Divide both sides by 5
x = 13
