Answer: The next three terms =2.56, - 1.024 and 0.4096
Step-by-step explanation:
Common Ratio of a Geometric sequence, R is calculated as
=a2/a1 = -40/100=-0.4
or a3/a2=16/ -40 = -0.4
such that the next three terms are
5th term = -6.4 x -0.4=2.56
6th term= 2.56 x -0.4 =-1.024
7TH term= -1.024 x -0.4=0.4096
They must have common denominators
Answer:
(3x+4)(5x+7)
Step-by-step explanation:
15x^2
+41x+28
Factor the expression by grouping. First, the expression needs to be rewritten as 15x^2
+ax+bx+28. To find a and b, set up a system to be solved.
a+b=41
ab=15×28=420
Since ab is positive, a and b have the same sign. Since a+b is positive, a and b are both positive. List all such integer pairs that give product 420.
1,420
2,210
3,140
4,105
5,84
6,70
7,60
10,42
12,35
14,30
15,28
20,21
Calculate the sum for each pair.
1+420=421
2+210=212
3+140=143
4+105=109
5+84=89
6+70=76
7+60=67
10+42=52
12+35=47
14+30=44
15+28=43
20+21=41
The solution is the pair that gives sum 41.
a=20
b=21
Rewrite 15x^2
+41x+28 as (15x^2
+20x)+(21x+28).
(15x^2
+20x)+(21x+28)
Factor out 5x in the first and 7 in the second group.
5x(3x+4)+7(3x+4)
Factor out common term 3x+4 by using distributive property.
(3x+4)(5x+7)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(2x-3)
-(2x - 3) + 5
-2x + 3 + 5= -2x + 8
answer is A
Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) = Waist Measurement / Hip Measurement
Waist Measurement = 40 inches
Hip Measurement = 2 inches less = (40 -2) = 38 inches.
Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) = 40/38 = 1.0526
