Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

1/5 × (x - 2) = 20

First step to solving the equation is

By multiplying both sides by the value of 5.

That will give,

x - 2 = 100

x = 100 + 2

= 102

Answer:

The number is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using reciprocal method

1/5(x-2)=20

We'll multiply the both sides by the reciprocal of 1/5 which is 5

(1/5)*5(x-2)= 20*5

1(x-2)= 100

X-2 = 100

X= 100+2

X = 102

But note that we multiplied the equation by 5 which is reciprocal of 1/5 as the first step.

BRAINLIEST! what are the next 2 terms in the geometric sequence?<br> a1=2,r=-3
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The next two terms after a1 is

-6 and then 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence means your pattern for the terms is multiplication by the same number.

So a1 is the first term and r is your common ratio.

The common ratio is what you are multiplying by each time to figure out the next term.

So the geometric sequence goes like this:

a1 ,  a1*r , (a1*r)*r or a1*r^2 , a1*r^3 ,....

So anyways you have

first term a1=2

second term a2=2(-3)=-6

third term a3=-6(-3)=18

And so on...

Please explain how to get the answer, with step by step explination. I would like to know, so I can do it by my self in the futu
natulia [17]

Answer:

(-8, 135°)

Step-by-step explanation:

(8, -45°) has magnitude 8 and direction -45°.

If we add 180° to the direction and change the sign of the magnitude, we'll have the same point.

(-8, -45° + 180°) = (-8, 135°)

Write a mixed number 27/4
gayaneshka [121]
To find a mixed number, find how many times the denominator goes into the numerator evenly.

In this case, 4 can go into 27 without going over 6 times.
6 x 4 = 24.

Now we put that as the whole number.

6

We find out what numbers are left over, and place that as the numerator.

27 - 24 = 3.

Alright. 3 is the numerator.

6 3/

Finally, keep the denominator the same.

6 3/4.

Hope this helped!
