Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq. of line with intercepts a and b is

$\frac{x}{a} +\frac{y}{b} =1\\here ~eq. ~of ~line~ is ~ \frac{x}{8} +\frac{y}{4} =1\\or x+2y=8\\$

Answer:

y = -1/2x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points ( 8,0) and ( 0,4)

We can find the slope

m =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (4-0)/(0-8)

4/-8

-1/2

We can use the slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -1/2x + 4

Aya = a1 + (n - 1)d

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

The 26th term of an arithmetic sequence is:

$a_{26}=67$

Hence, option A is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a₁ = -33

d = 4

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by

$a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d$

substituting a₁ = -33 and d = 4 in the nth term of the sequence

$a_n=-33+\left(n-1\right)4$

$\:a_n=-33+4n-4$

$a_n=4n-37$

Thus, the nth term of the sequence is:

$a_n=4n-37$

now substituting n = 26 in the nth term to determine the 26th term of the sequence

$a_n=4n-37$

$a_{26}=4\left(26\right)-37$

$a_{26}=104-37$

$a_{26}=67$

Therefore, the 26th term of an arithmetic sequence is:

$a_{26}=67$

Hence, option A is true.

What is 15 tens - 1 gross

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A gross is equal to 120 ones or ten dozen

what is 15 tens - 1 gross

we know that

15 tens means ----> That you are adding 10, 15 times or multiplying 10 by 15, which gives you

$10(15)=150$

1 gross means ---> That you are adding 10, 12 times or multiplying 10 by 12

which gives you

$10(12)=120$

The algebraic expression of 15 tens - 1 gross is equal to

$150-120=30$

Convert to word expression

3 tens

A bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for fifteen minutes. Then i

Ksenya-84 [330]

A. The equation to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is: $\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{12}+900= 1200$ , where x is the distance.

B. The flowerbed is 2250 feet far from the hive.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is $x$ feet.

The bee flies 20 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive and flies directly back to the hive at 12 feet per second.

As, $Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

So, the time taken by the bee to reach the flowerbed $= \frac{x}{20}$ seconds and the time taken to fly back to the hive $=\frac{x}{12}$ seconds.

The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes or (15×60)seconds or 900 seconds and it is away from the hive for a total of 20 minutes or (20×60)seconds or 1200 seconds.

So, the equation will be.......

$\frac{x}{20}+\frac{x}{12}+900= 1200\\ \\ \frac{3x+5x}{60}= 300\\ \\ 8x= 60*300\\ \\ 8x=18000\\ \\ x=\frac{18000}{8}=2250$

Thus, the distance of the flowerbed from the hive is 2250 feet.
