If the sum of three consecutive terms of GP are k-4,k,k+5. Find k

Mathematics
1 answer:
labwork [276]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

k = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

t1 = a = k-4

a = k - 4

t2 = ar = k

(k-4)r = k - 4

r = k/(k-4)

t3 = ar^2 = k + 5

(k - 4)(k/k - 4)^2 = k+5

k^2/k-4 = k+5

k^2 = (k+5)(k-4)

k^2 = k^2 -4k +5k -20

0 = k -20

k =20

Which rectangular equation is equivalent to the polar equation r csc theta=8?
Drupady [299]
Rectangular and polar forms are two forms of equations that translates to plot. In this case, the two forms are convertible to each other by the expressions:

r sin theta = y
r cos theta = x
x2 + y2 = r2

we are given the polar expression r csc theta = 8 and is asked to convert to rectangular form.

in this case, csc theta is equal to 1/ sin theta. thys
 r / sin theta = 8

in order to make use of the equations above, then

we multiply r to both numerator and denominator in the left side, that is 
r^2 / r sin theta = 8 
x2+y2 / y = 8
x  2 + y2 = 8y

Consider this equation. 7.8+2(0.75m+0.4)=-6.4m+4(0.5m-0.8) Mia solved the equation and determined that m=2. Is she correct?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

B) She is incorrect because when substituting 2 for m the result was a false statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve it for ourselves and see if Mia is correct:

7.8+2(0.75m+0.4)=-6.4m+4(0.5m-0.8)

7.8+1.5m+0.8=-6.4m+2m-3.2

1.5m+8.6=-4.4m-3.2

8.6=-5.9m-3.2

11.8=-5.9m

-2=m

m=-2

Since the answer is actually m=-2, Mia's guess is incorrect because plugging in m=2 does not make both sides equal. Therefore B is the correct option.
