For the first one, I will solve for t.
s + 2t = 6, first we isolate the t variable,
2t = -s + 6, divide both sides by 2,
t = -s/2 + 3, < There's your answer for 1!
Here's the second one,
3s - 2t = 2, subtract 3s from both sides,
-2t = 2 - 3s, divide both sides by -2,
t = -1 + 3s/2 < There's your second answer!
You can use GP in many ways.
- Suppose you invested some money at somewhere.The money increases in a constant ratio.You can use geometric sequence in order to find your money after some years.
- In science you can use it to find growth of bacteria which is exponential.
If the rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle EFGH, side CD is proportional to the side
C. GH
The order of the letters in naming the rectangle gives us which sides are adjacent in rectangle and which sides correspond to the other rectangle.
The slope would be 1/17 and then you would use that slope and plug it into the y=mx+b and solve for b
