Answer:
a₁ = -5, d = 7, a₂ = 2, a₃ = 9, a₄ = 16
equation of sequence: 
Step-by-step explanation:
a₁ + a₂ + a₃ = 6
a₁ + a₁ + d + a₁ + 2d = 6
3a₁ + 3d = 6
a₁ + d= 2 ⇒ a₁ = 2 - d
a₄ = 16
a₁ + 3d = 16
2 - r + 3d = 16
2d = 14
d = 7
a₁ = 2-7 = -5
a₁ = -5, d = 7 ⇒ a₂ = -5+7 = 2, a₃ = 2+7 = 9, a₄ = 9+7 = 16
equation of arithmetic sequence:

B5 = -1 x (2 ^ 5 - 1)
B5 = -1 x (2 ^ 4)
B5 = -1 x 16
B5 = -16
ANSWER
The x-coordinate of the solution to the system of equations is 1.
EXPLANATION
The given equations are:
y = -x - 2
and
y = 2x - 5.
We want to find the x-coordinate of the solution to the system of equations.
We equate the two equations to obtain an equation in x.
This implies that,
2x-5=-x-2
Group similar terms to obtain:
2x+x=-2+5
Simplify
3x=3
Divide both sides by 3.
x=1
The x-coordinate of the solution to the system of equations is 1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let's break down 2,000,000 into its multiples,
Multiples of 2,000,000= 2⁷ × 5⁶
Using above values to find different combinations of length(l) and breadth (b) of rectangle and corresponding parameter of rectangle
- l=5, b=400,000 ,parameter= 2(5) + 2(400,000)= 800,010, total length of fence required= parameter+ side with shortest length= 800,015
- l=2 b=1,000,000 parameter= 2,000,004, shortest fence required= 2,000,008
- l=4, b= 500,000 parameter= 1,000,008, shortest fence required= 1,000,012
- From above, we can see a trend that the parameter of rectangle decreases if length and breadth are increased provided that area is constant. So, a rectangle will have shortest parameter if all of its sides are equal.
- length of side of rectangle with shortest possible parameter= 2^3 ×5^3= 1000 and breadth of side of rectangle with shortest possible parameter= 2^4× 5^3=2000
- Shortest possible length of fence= 2(2000)+2(1000)+1000=7000ft
Answer:
$0.24
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
At full price, Melvin would pay for per liter of gasoline = $1.679
Using his loyalty card, Melvin only pays = $1.439
Question asked:
How much less does Melvin pay per liter using his loyalty card?
Solution:
At full price, Melvin would pay for per liter of gasoline = $1.679
Using his loyalty card, Melvin only pays = $1.439
To find that that how much less amount Melvin pay for per liter of gasoline using his loyalty card, we will subtract the payment using loyalty card from payment without using loyalty card.
$1.679 - $1.439 = $0.24
Therefore, $0.24 less amount Melvin pay for per liter of gasoline using his loyalty card.
