Answer: A) 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as
Tn = ar^(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
n represents the number of terms.
If the third term is 20, it means that
T3 = 20 = ar^(3 - 1)
20 = ar²- - - - - - - - - - 1
If the third term is 20, it means that
T5 = 5 = ar^(5 - 1)
5 = ar⁴- - - - - - - - - - 2
Dividing equation 2 by equation 1, it becomes
5/20 = r⁴/r²
1/4 = r^(4 - 2)
(1/2)² = r²
r = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x - 5y = - 2 → (1)
2x + y = 3 → (2)
Multiply (2) by 5 will eliminate y when added to (1), that is
10x + 5y = 15 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term
(3x + 10x) + (- 5y + 5y) = (- 2 + 15)
13x = 13 ( divide both sides by 13 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into (2) for corresponding value of y
2 + y = 3 ⇒ y = 3 - 2 = 1
Solution is (1, 1)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
when (x,y) is rotated through 180 then new coordinates are (-x',-y')
G(6,4)→G'(-6,-4)
X = 60°
Because the square in the corner tells you that it is 90° (right angle)
So your equation to solve for x would be...
x + 30 = 90
Now you need to isolate the x.
Subtract both sides by 30.
x + 0 = 90 - 30
x = 60
