Find two geometric means between 5 and 135

Mathematics

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>

Solve the system of equations.<br><br>- 9x + 4y = 6<br><br>9x + 5y = -33​
liubo4ka [24]

Let us solve this system of equations by using the elimination method. Adding the 2 equations, we get

9x + 5y - 9x + 4y = -33 + 6

9y = -27

y = -3

Substituting this value of y in the first equation, we get

-9x + 4(-3) = 6

-9x - 12 = 6

9x + 12 = -6

9x = -18

x = -2

Therefore, x = -2, and y = -3. Hope this helps! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Find the area of the shaded region .
Greeley [361]

Calculate area of the white region inside circle.

Area of the two white triangles in top left and bottom right:

2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}(6)(6) = 36 ft^2

Area of the two white quarter circles in the bottom left and top right:

2 \cdot \frac{1}{4}\pi (6)^2 = 18\pi ft^2

Total area of unshaded white region inside circle:

(36 + 18\pi)ft^2

Area of entire circle including the white and shaded regions

\pi(6)^2 = 36\pi ft^2

Area of shaded region is area of entire circle - area of unshaded white region

36\pi - (36 + 18\pi) = (18\pi - 36) ft^2
