a_1=15;\ r=\dfrac{1}{3}\\\\a_4=a_1r^3\to a_4=15\cdot\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)^3=15\cdot\dfrac{1}{27}=\boxed{\frac{5}{9}}

We must find UNIQUE combinations because choosing a,b,c,d... is the same as d,c,b,a...etc.  For this type of problem you use the "n choose k" formula...

n!/(k!(n-k)!), n=total number of choices available, k=number of choices made..

In this case:

20!/(10!(20-10)!)

20!/(10!*10!)

I need help please <br>find b​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is a 3-4-5 Pythagorean Triple. 9 is 3*3, 15 is 5*3, so b is 4*3, which is 12. Alternatively, you could use the Pythagorean Theorem's converse, sqrt(15^2-9^2), and get 12.

How many liters each of a 35% acid solution and a 80% acid solution must be used to produce 60 liters of a 65% acid solution? (R
serg [7]

Solving a system of equations we will see that we need to use <u>40 liters of the 80% acid solution</u>, and the other <u>20 liters are of the 35% acid solution</u>.

<h3>How many liters of each solution do we need to use?</h3>

First, we need to define the variables:

  • x = liters of the 35% acid used.
  • y = liters of the 80% acid used.

We know that we want to produce 60 liters of 65% acid, then we have the system of equations:

x + y = 60

x*0.35 + y*0.80 = 60*0.65

(in the second equation we wrote the percentages in decimal form).

To solve this we need to isolate one of the variables in one equation and then replace it in other one, isolating x we get:

x = 60 - y

Replacing that in the other equation:

(60 - y)*0.35 + y*0.80 = 60*0.65

y*(0.80 - 0.35) = 60*(0.65 - 0.35)

y*0.45 = 60*0.30

y = 60*0.30/0.45 = 40

So we need to use <u>40 liters of the 80% acid solution</u>, and the other <u>20 liters are of the 35% acid solution</u>.

Malik is making 36 small pack of chili spices and 15 large packs of chili spices. A small pack contains 2.35 ounces of spices.A
Elena L [17]
The answer is
To find how many ounces you need to make, you multiply the number of packs by how many ounces.
So, it would look like:
36*2.35=84.6
15*10.8=162

Then you add the ounces together and you have your answer:
162+84.6=246.6 ounces
