Let the Length of River D be : P
Given : River C is 100 Miles Longer than River D
⇒ Length of River C = P + 100
Given : The Sum of Both Rivers is 5570 Miles
⇒ P + (P + 100) = 5570
⇒ 2P + 100 = 5570
⇒ 2P = 5570 - 100
⇒ 2P = 5470
⇒ P = 2735
⇒ Length of River D is : 2735 Miles
⇒ Length of River C is : (P + 100) = (2735 + 100) = 2835 Miles
Answer: b
explination: i’m always right
Step-by-step explanation:
the introduction of a fraction tells us that we are dealing with multiplications, and therefore a geometric sequence (where every new term is created by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor, the ratio r).
I think your teacher made a mistake, or you made one when typing the question in here.
there is no factor r that creates
15×r = 9
and
9×r = 5/27
it would mean that
15 × r² = 5/27
r² = 5/27 / 15 = 5/27 × 1/15 = 5/405 = 1/81
r = 1/9
but 15 × 1/9 = 5 × 1/3 = 5/3 is NOT 9
and 9 × 1/9 = 9/9 = 1 is NOT 5/27
so, this can't be right.
on the other hand
15 × r = 9
r = 9/15 = 3/5
and then
9 × 3/5 = 27/5
so, either the sequence should have been
15, 5/3, 5/27
or (and I suspect this to be true)
15, 9, 27/5
under that assumption we have
s1 = 15
r = 3/5
sn = sn-1 × r = s1 × r^(n-1) = 15 × (3/5)^(n-1)
s10 = 15 × (3/5)⁹ = 15 × 19683/1953125 =
= 3 × 19683/390625 = 59049/390625 =
= 0.15116544 ≈ 0.151
Answer:
61 + n = 82
Step-by-step explanation:
So the total number of candy is 82. This is the sum of each type of candy, i.e. 18 + 24 + 19 + n. So we have
18 + 24 + 19 + n = 82
61 + n = 82
( if we solve the equation we get n = 82 - 61 = 21)
Hope it helps and if it does please mark me brainliest;)
