Mathematics

Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago

7 0

Answer: 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original employee be x , this means that

116% of x = 80

$\frac{116x}{100}$ = 80

116x = 8000

divide through by 116

x = 8000/116

x = 68.96551724

Since we are dealing with employees , therefore x ≈ 69

This means that there were 69 employees originally

What is the sum of series is numbers 64&66 ?<br> Using the summation notation

iragen [17]

Answer:

64. 6138

66. 8.078125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take it one number at a time.

For number 64:

$6(2)^{1-1}=6$

$6(2)^{2-1}=12$

$6(2)^{3-1}=24$

$6(2)^{4-1}=48$

$6(2)^{5-1}=96$

$6(2)^{6-1}=192$

$6(2)^{7-1}=384$

$6(2)^{8-1}=768$

$6(2)^{9-1}=1536$

$6(2)^{10-1}=3072$

Sum = 6 + 12 + 24 + 48 + 96 + 192 + 384 + 768 + 1536 + 3072

Sum = 6138

For number 66:

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{0}=12$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{1}=-6$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{2}=3$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{3}=-1.5$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{4}=0.75$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{5}=-0.375$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{6}=0.1875$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{7}=-0.0078125$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{8}=0.046875$

$12(-\frac{1}{2})^{9}=-0.0234375$

Sum = 12 + -6 + 3 + -1.5 + 0.75 + -0.375 + 0.1875 + -0.0078125 + 0.046875 + -0.0234375

or to make things simpler:

Sum = 12 - 6 + 3 - 1.5 + 0.75 - 0.375 + 0.1875 - 0.0078125 + 0.046875 - 0.0234375

Sum = 8.078125

What is the solution set for the inequality,

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

x≤−6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

4(x−3)−7x≥6

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−3x−12≥6

Step 2: Add 12 to both sides.

−3x−12+12≥6+12

−3x≥18

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

≥

−3

x≤−6
