if a b 9 are in GP
b÷a = 9 ÷ b
b^2 = 9a
if a - 1 b 9 are in AP
2b = a+8
b = a+8÷2
substitute
b is equal to a + 8 by 2 in b square equal to 9 a
(a+8÷2)^2 = 9a
a^2+16a+64 = 36a
a^2 -20a +64 =0
(a-16) (a-4) =0
a= 16 or a=4
when a=16 b= 12
when a=4 b= 6
Value of a and b are given above
Answer: He'd have to work 15 days.
Step-by-step explanation
With the money in his bank account he'd have to get $173 to be able to pay for the rest of the board. If you were to divide 173 by 12 you'd get 14.4166666667. But you can't have a decimal so you'd round up to get a total of 180. Which is how you get the answer of him needing to work for 15 days.
Answer:
y=2/5x+2
slope: 2/5
y=-1/4x+4
y-intercept: 4
Step-by-step explanation
The equation for slope-intercept form is y=mx+b.
m=the slope
b= the y-intercept
Answer:
3.75 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the frame is 3 times the width.
Let the width be x.
The length will be 3x.
Kyle uses 10 feet of wood to make the frame. This means that the perimeter is 10 feet.
The perimeter of a rectangle is:
P = 2(L + W)
=> 10 = 2(3x + x)
=> 10/2 = 4x
5 = 4x
=> x = 5/4 = 1.25 feet
The width is 1.25 feet. The length is therefore:
1.25 * 3 = 3.75 feet
