Answer: Explained in the step-by-step


Step-by-step explanation:

We want to isolate x, and remember, what we do to one side we do to the other:

(x+3) * 3  2/5 = 15  3/10

(x+3) * 3  2/5 divided by 3  2/5 = 15  3/10  divided by 3  2/5

x + 3 = 153/10 * 5/17

x + 3 = 765/170

x + 3 = 153/34

x + 3 = 4.5

x + 3 - 3 = 4.5 - 3

x = 1.5

Check:

(1.5+3) * 3  2/5 = 15  3/10

4.5 * 3  2/5 = 15  3/10

(3  2/5 = 3.4 and 15  3/10 = 15.3)

4.5 * 3.4 = 15.3

15.3 = 15.3

What is the common ratio for the geometric sequence?
Helen [10]
Note this pattern:  Mult. 24 by (-1/4) produces -6.
                              Mult -6 by (-1/4) produces 6/4 = 3/2
                             Mult. 3/2 by (-1/4) produces 3/8

Looks as though you copied the problem down incorrectly.  You wrote 32 for 3/2 and -38 for -3/8.

The common ratio is -1/4.

tell whether this has one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution. Explain your reasoning. y=2x+7, y=3x-1
hammer [34]

Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

They have isolated y for you in both equations so you can plug either one into the other.

y = 3x - 1

2x + 7 = 3x - 1

isolate the x

7 = x - 1

x = 8

Go back to the original and plug 8 into x to get y.

y = 2 (8) + 7

y = 16 + 7

y = 23

This means at (8, 23) y = 2x+7 is equal to y = 3x-1. In other words they share a point at (8, 23). This is the only solution because for any other x and y they'd not be equal.
