Answer:

Part A) x=9 and m∠FGH=29°

Part B) m∠HGI=29°

Part C) m∠FGI=58°

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Solve for x and find m∠FGH

we know that

m∠FGI=m∠FGH+m∠HGI

If GH bisects FGI

then

m∠FGH=m∠HGI

substitute the values

4x-7=5x-16

solve for x

5x-4x=16-7

x=9

m∠FGH=4x-7

m∠FGH=4(9)-7=29°

Part B) Find the measure of angle HGI

m∠HGI=5x-16

Remember that

m∠FGH=m∠HGI

Verify

m∠HGI=5(9)-16=29° -----> is correct

Part C) Find the measure of angle FGI

m∠FGI=m∠FGH+m∠HGI

substitute the values

m∠FGI=29°+29°=58°

Evaluate the sum of the following finite geometric series.

rjkz [21]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{156}{125}\approx1.2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Method 1:</h3>

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^4\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}\\\\for\ n=1\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{1-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^0=1\\\\for\ n=2\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{2-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^1=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\for\ n=3\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{3-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^2=\dfrac{1}{25}\\\\for\ n=4\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{4-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^3=\dfrac{1}{125}$

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^4\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}=1+\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{25}+\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{125}{125}+\dfrac{25}{125}+\dfrac{5}{125}+\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{156}{125}$

<h3>Method 2:</h3>

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^4\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}\to a_n=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}\\\\\text{The formula of a sum of terms of a geometric series:}\\\\S_n=a_1\cdot\dfrac{1-r^n}{1-r}\\\\r-\text{common ratio}\to r=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\\\\a_{n+1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n+1-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^n\\\\r=\dfrac{\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^n}{\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{n-1}}\qquad\text{use}\ \dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}\\\\r=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-(n-1)}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{n-n+1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^1=\dfrac{1}{5}$

$a_1=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^{1-1}=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)^0=1$

$\text{Substitute}\ a_1=1,\ n=4,\ r=\dfrac{1}{5}:\\\\S_4=1\cdot\dfrac{1-\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^4}{1-\frac{1}{5}}=\dfrac{1-\frac{1}{625}}{\frac{4}{5}}=\dfrac{624}{625}\cdot\dfrac{5}{4}=\dfrac{156}{125}$

What is -11 2/3 - (-4 1/5)

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

-7 7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

-11 2/3 -(-4 1/5) = -11 2/3 + 4 1/5. Now, we need to find the LCM of 3 and 5. The LCM of 3 and 5 is 15 because 15 is the lowest number that can divide both 3 and 5 separately and both results will still be whole numbers.

Now, we have -11 10/15 + 4 3/15.

-11 10/15 + 4 3/15 = -7 7/15.

Max bought a pair of shorts on sale for 20% off the original price of $60 and another 25% off the discounted price. If sales tax

lawyer [7]

Answer = $39.78

100-20 =80

100-25=75

Multiply 60 x .80 to get $48

Then multiply 48 x .75 to get $36

Sales tax %10.5 = move decimal two places to left .105

Now multiply 36 x .105 =3.78

$3.78 equals your sales tax

Finally add $3.78+$36= $39.78
