To solve this problem you have to get the X by itself so first take advantage of the distributive property and multiply 3 times X and 5. Then you'll have

3X + 15 = 24.

Next you'll want to divide everything by 3 and you'll get

X + 5 = 8

Now just solve for X and you'll have your answer :)

Which expression is equivalent to -9x^-1y^-1 / -15x^5 y^-3 Assume x = 0 y = 0
jenyasd209 [6]
For this case we have the following expression:
   -9x ^ -1y ^ -1 / -15x ^ 5 y ^ -3
 For power properties we have:
   -9x ^ (- 1-5) y ^ (- 1 - (- 3)) / - 15
 Rewriting we have:
   9x ^ (- 6) y ^ (- 1 + 3) / 15
   3x ^ (- 6) y ^ (2) / 5
   3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6
 Answer:
 
  3y ^ 2 / 5x ^ 6Note: answer is not between the options. Rewrite the expression again, or the options.

What is -3+5+6g=11-3g solve for g
vitfil [10]

Answer: g = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-3 + 5 + 6g = 11 - 3g

First, we need to combine like terms

-3 + 5 = 2

2 + 6g = 11 - 3g

Add 3g to each side

2 + 9g = 11

Subtract 2 from each side

9g = 9

Divide each side by 1

g = 1

What is the common ratio for the geometric sequence?<br><br> 18, 12, 8, 16/3,…
alex41 [277]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A geometric sequence : 18, 12, 8, 16/3,…

Solution :

Each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant in a Geometric Sequence .

In a Geometric Sequence  common ratio is denoted by r


r = \frac{a_{n} }{a_{n-1} }


for n = 2


r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} }


⇒r = \frac{12 }{18 }


⇒r = \frac{2 }{3 }


for n = 3


r = \frac{a_{3} }{a_{2} }


⇒r = \frac{8 }{12 }


⇒r = \frac{4 }{6 }


⇒r = \frac{2}{3 }


Thus the common ratio 'r' = 2/3
