Find two geometric means between 5 and 135

Mathematics
1 answer:
aniked [119]3 years ago
6 0
Answer:

We are effectively looking for a and b such that 5, a, b, 135 is a geometric sequence.

This sequence has common ratio <span><span>3<span>√<span>1355</span></span></span>=3</span>, hence <span>a=15</span> and <span>b=45</span>

Explanation:

In a geometric sequence, each intermediate term is the geometric mean of the term before it and the term after it.

So we want to find a and b such that 5, a, b, 135 is a geometric sequence.

If the common ratio is r then:

<span><span>a=5r</span><span>b=ar=5<span>r2</span></span><span>135=br=5<span>r3</span></span></span>

Hence <span><span>r3</span>=<span>1355</span>=27</span>, so <span>r=<span>3<span>√27</span></span>=3</span>

Then <span>a=5r=15</span> and <span>b=ar=15⋅3=45</span>

Carly solved a quadratic equation by completing the square, but her work has errors. Identify the first error in Carly's work.
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Her first error was adding the wrong number to both sides. Instead of 4², it should be 2²

Step-by-step explanation:

When completing the square, the number that needs to be added to both sides is (b/2)²

In this problem, b is 4. So, Carly should have added 2² to both sides, but she added 4² instead.

So, her first error was adding 4² to both sides instead of 2²

Find the area of this circle use 3.14 or 22/7 or pie round your answer to the nearest hundred if necessary
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The area of the circle is 50.24 mm ²

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise we need to use the area formula of a circle:

a = area

r = radius = 4mm

π = pi = 3.14

a = π * r²

a = 3.14 * (4mm )²

a = 3.14 * 16mm ²

a = 50.24 mm ²

The area of the circle is 50.24 mm ²

Contrast and compare squares and rectangles
liberstina [14]

Answer:

I found this over the internet and hope it helps:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles. It follows form this that the opposite sides are parallel and of the same length. A square is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles and all four sides of the same length.

Also note that a square is always a rectangle, but a rectangle is not always a square.
