Start with counting back from 0.046 three numbers

0.046, 0.045, 0.044

The answer for the first number that you started at is 0.044

Come up with a rule for adding integers.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The sum of any integer and its opposite is equal to zero. Summary: Adding two positive integers always yields a positive sum; adding two negative integers always yields a negative sum. To find the sum of a positive and a negative integer, take the absolute value of each integer and then subtract these values.

Solve the following system of equations express your answers as an ordered pair in the format (a,b) with no spaces between the n

EleoNora [17]

Double the first equation: 4x+14y=-2 and subtract the second: 17y=17, so y=1. 2x=-7y-1=-7-1=-8, so x=-8/2=-4.
The answer is x=-4 and y=1.

Could someone answer and explain these please? Thank you!

Answer 1:

It is given that the positive 2 digit number is 'x' with tens digit 't' and units digit 'u'.

So the two digit number x is expressed as,

$x=(10 \times t)+(1 \times u)$

$x=10t+u$

The two digit number 'y' is obtained by reversing the digits of x.

So, $y=(10 \times u)+(1 \times t)$

$y=10u+t$

Now, the value of x-y is expressed as:

$x-y=(10t+u)-(10u+t)$

$x-y=10t+u-10u-t$

$x-y=9t-9u$

$x-y=9(t-u)$

So, $9(t-u)$ is equivalent to (x-y).

Answer 2:

It is given that the sum of infinite geometric series with first term 'a' and common ratio r<1 = $\frac{a}{1-r}$

Since, the sum of the given infinite geometric series = 200

Therefore, $\frac{a}{1-r}=200$

Since, r=0.15 (given)

$\frac{a}{1-0.15}=200$

$\frac{a}{0.85}=200$

$a=0.85 \times 200$

a=170

The nth term of geometric series is given by $ar^{n-1}$ .

So, second term of the series = $ar^{2-1}$ = ar

Second term = $170 \times 0.15$

= 25.5

So, the second term of the geometric series is 25.5
