x Margo's age

Jaun + Margo

(2x+5) + x = 29

3x = 24

x = 8, Margo's age. Jaun 21 2*8+5

And to check...

sum = 29

20 PTS What is the sixth term of the sequence shown in the table? Term Value 1 –46,656 2 7,776 3 –1,296 4 216 5 6 {SEE IMAGE}

olganol [36]

Answer:

a₆ = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common ratio r between consecutive terms in the sequence, that is

r = $\frac{216}{-1296}$ = $\frac{-1296}{7776}$ = $\frac{7776}{-46656}$ = - $\frac{1}{6}$

This indicates the sequence is geometric.

To obtain any term in the sequence, multiply the previous term by r, thus

a₅ = 216 × - $\frac{1}{6}$ = - 36

a₆ = - 36 × - $\frac{1}{6}$ = 6

Solve y-12/25=3 1/5. What number is y? A. 3 1/5 B. 3 17/25 C. 3 7/25 D. 4 17/25

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Option c) y= $3\frac{17}{25}$ is correct

The value of y is 3 $\frac{17}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is

$y-\frac{12}{25}=3\frac{1}{5}$

To solve the given equation for y

$y-\frac{12}{25}=3\frac{1}{5}$

$y-\frac{12}{25}=\frac{16}{5}$ (converting mixed fraction to normal fraction )

$y-\frac{16}{5}=\frac{12}{25}$

$y-\frac{(16\times 5)+12}{25}$ (taking LCM 25 )

$=\frac{80+12}{25}$ (adding the terms )

$y=\frac{92}{25}$ (now convert fraction into mixed fraction )

Therefore y= $3\frac{17}{25}$

Option c) y= $3\frac{17}{25}$ is correct

The value of y is 3 $\frac{17}{25}$
