Answer:

option D

D. x = 5, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equation,

Equation 1

5.3x + y = 28.5

Equation 2

4.2x + 3.1y = 27.2

rearrange equation 1 in terms of y

y = 28.5 - 5.3x

Substitute the value of y in equation 2

4.2x + 88.35 - 16.43x = 27.2

4.2x - 16.43x = 27.2 - 88.35

-12.23x = -61.15

x = 61.15/12.23

x = 5

put value of x in any of the equation

y = 28.5 - 26.5

y = 2

The first painter can finish a paint job in 2 hours. The second painter can finish the same job in 8 hours. How long would it ta

vampirchik [111]

Answer: $1\frac{3}{5}$ hrs

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1st painter: $\frac{1}{2}$

2nd painter: $\frac{1}{8}$

1st + 2nd = Together

$\frac{1}{2}$ + $\frac{1}{8}$ = $\frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{1}{2}(8x)$ + $\frac{1}{8}(8x)$ = $\frac{1}{x}(8x)$

4x + x = 8

5x = 8

x = $\frac{8}{5}$

= $1\frac{3}{5}$

The 4th term in a geometric sequence is -15, the 5th term is 45 and the 6th term is -135. Find the sum of the first 7 terms.

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

d) 303 8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

4th term = ar^3 and 5th = ar^4 where a = first term and r = common ratio.

So ar^4 / ar^3

= r = 45/-15 = -3.

Working back,:

The first term a = ar^3/ r^3

= -15 / (-3)^3

= -15/-27

= 5/9

Sum of n terms = a * (r^n - 1)/(r-1)

= 5/9 * ((-3)^7 - 1 ) / (-3 -1)

= 303 8/9
