I hope this helps you


Brandon x


Michael 3x


18 years ago


Brandon x-18


Michael 3x-18


9 (x-18)=3x-18


9x-9.18=3x-18

9x-3x=9.18-18

6x=8.18

x=8.3

x= 24

45.5 meters in 13 seconds show work
olya-2409 [2.1K]
I am going to assume that you are looking for the speed of the object. So, knowing that the formula for speed is distance divided by time, we have the expression: 45.5/13. This would simplify to be 3.5 meters per second, or m/s. m/s also happens to be the "Scientific unit for speed!" Just a fun fact! If this answer was not clear, please feel free to ask! Happy home-working!

PLEASE!!!!! HELP ME!!!!!!

Answer:

15 = a_1 r^4 (1)

1 = a_1 r^5 (2)

If we divide equations (2) and (1) we got:

\frac{r^5}{r^4}= \frac{1}{15}

And then r= \frac{1}{15}

And then we can find the value a_1 and we got from equation (1)

a_1 = \frac{15}{r^4} = \frac{15}{(\frac{1}{15})^4} =759375

And then the general term for the sequence would be given by:

a_n = 759375 (\frac{1}{15})^n-1 , n=1,2,3,4,...

And the best option would be:

C) a1=759,375; an=an−1⋅(1/15)

Step-by-step explanation:

the general formula for a geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = a_1 r^{n-1}

For this case we know that a_5 = 15, a_6 = 1

Then we have the following conditions:

15 = a_1 r^4 (1)

1 = a_1 r^5 (2)

If we divide equations (2) and (1) we got:

\frac{r^5}{r^4}= \frac{1}{15}

And then r= \frac{1}{15}

And then we can find the value a_1 and we got from equation (1)

a_1 = \frac{15}{r^4} = \frac{15}{(\frac{1}{15})^4} =759375

And then the general term for the sequence would be given by:

a_n = 759375 (\frac{1}{15})^n-1 , n=1,2,3,4,...

And the best option would be:

C) a1=759,375; an=an−1⋅(1/15)
