Answer:
-5 and -9 are the constants, can also be written -14
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create two equations 1. one that calculates calories burned and 2.another that calculates minutes:
20*x + 5*y = 1200
x + y = 120
Then we can solve for x
x = 120 - y
then we can plug that into the top equation:
20(120 - y) + 5y = 1200
divide by 5:
4(120 - y) + y = 240
distribute:
480 - 4y + y = 240
and then do all that combining like factors what not and simplify and solve:
480 - 3y = 240
-3y = -240
y = 8
NOW WE CAN JUST PLUG IN THE ANSWER FOR Y TO FIND X
8+x =120
x = 112
If a = first term and r = common ratio we have
a + ar + ar^2 = 13 and ar^2 / a = r^2 = 9
so r = 3
and a + 3a + 9a = 13
so a = 1
so they are 1,3 and 9
2.
in geometric series we have
4 , 4r ,4r^2 , 60
Arithmetic;
4, 4r , 4r + d , 4r + 2d
so we have the system of equations
4r + 2d = 60
4r^2 = 4r + d
From first equation
2r + d = 30
so d = 30 - 2r
Substitute for d in second equation:-
4r^2 - 4r - (30-2r) = 0
4r^2 - 2r - 30 =0
2r^2 - r - 15 = 0
(r - 3)(2r + 5) = 0
r = 3 or -2.5
r must be positive so its = 3
and d = 30 - 2(3) = 24
and the numbers are 4*3 = 12 , 4*3^2 = 36
first 3 are 4 , 12 and 36 ( in geometric)
and last 3 are 12, 36 and 60 ( in arithmetic)
The 2 numbers we ause are 12 and 36.
