QUESTION 4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fantom [35]3 years ago
5 0

3, x, x+6 are the first 3 terms of G.P

common ratio is x/3=x+6/x

so we cross multiply x×x=3×x+6

ײ= 3x+18 so we have x²-3x-18

(x-6)(x+3)=0

the possible value of x are 6 and -3

b) tenth term of the seauence

first of all the possible sequence are 3, 6, 12 and 3, -3, 3

but we need only the positive GP

so the common ratio of.the GP r is 6/3=2

the 10th term of a GP sequence is ar^10-1=ar^9

where a = first time

3×2^9=3×512=1536

the 10th term is 1536

Answer:

25% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the original amount of books and subtract the new number of books

20 -15 = 5

Answer:

\text{Length of AB is }\frac{ah}{a+h}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △KMN, ABCD is a square where KN=a, MP⊥KN, MP=h.

we have to find the length of AB.

Let the side of square i.e AB is x units.

As ADCB is a square ⇒ ∠CDN=90°⇒∠CDP=90°

⇒ CP||MP||AB

In ΔMNP and ΔCND

∠NCD=∠NMP     (∵ corresponding angles)

∠NDC=∠NPM     (∵ corresponding angles)

By AA similarity rule,  ΔMNP~ΔCND

Also, ΔKAP~ΔKPM by similarity rule as above.

Hence, corresponding sides are in proportion

\frac{ND}{NP}=\frac{CD}{MP} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KA}{KP}=\frac{AB}{PM} \\\\\frac{ND}{NP}=\frac{x}{h} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KA}{KP}=\frac{x}{h}\\\\\frac{NP}{ND}=\frac{h}{x} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KP}{KA}=\frac{h}{x}\\\\\frac{PD}{ND}=\frac{h}{x}-1 \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{AP}{KA}=\frac{h}{x}-1\\

KA(\frac{h}{x}-1)=AP

ND(\frac{h}{x}-1)=PD

Adding above two, we get

(KA+ND)(\frac{h}{x}-1)=(AP+PD)

⇒ (KN-AD)=\frac{x}{(\frac{h}{x}-1)}

⇒ a-x=\frac{x}{(\frac{h}{x}-1)}

⇒ a-x=\frac{x^2}{h-x}

⇒ x^2=ah-ax-xh+x^2

⇒ x(h+a)=ah

⇒ x=\frac{ah}{a+h}

Jason decided to look at new trucks. Jason found a used truck for 34,000 dollars. A new truck is 40,000 dollars so what percent
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Percent of rise of a new truck on a used truck  = 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the percentage of saved money if Jason buying a used truck.

Given:

Price of the used truck = $34,000

Price of the new truck = $40,000

We need to find the percent of rise Jason saves on a used truck rather than buying a new truck

Solution:

Using a percentage formula.

percentage\ cost = \frac{(100-x)}{100}\times Original\ cost

Substitute Percentage cost = 34,000 and Original cost = 40,000 in above formula.

34000 = \frac{(100-x)}{100}\times 40000

34000 = (100-x)\times 400                    (\frac{40000}{100}=400)

Using cross multiplication rule.

(100-x)=\frac{34000}{400}

85=100-x

x = 100-85

x = 15%

Therefore, Jason used 15% rise of a new truck for a used truck.

What is the vertex of the parabola?<br><br> A. (-1,0)<br> B. (0,-3)<br> C. (1,-4)<br> D. (3,0)
-BARSIC- [3]
The vertex of a parabola is its highest or lowest point. Here, it is the lowest point, which happens right at the bottom of the U-shape—at (1, –4). Therefore, the answer is C.
