How do I solve 2f+10?
Scorpion4ik [409]
First of all, you want the variable to be isolated, so in order to do that, you divide in both sides. Ten divided by two is five. So f = 5.

2f + 10
---    ---
2      2

10 divided by 2 = 5

The attachment below is the question
kotykmax [81]
I would say about 189 people. I found the percentage of 8 out of 11, which I rounded to the nearest tenth and got 73%. Since that is how much do carry brief cases, I took 100-73 and got 23% for those who don’t carry briefcases. Then I found 23% of 700, which is 189. So, 189 out of 700 people do not carry briefcases.

The common ratio in a geometric series is 4 and the first term is 3.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The sum of the first 8 terms in the series is 65535.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

The common ratio in a geometric series, r = 4

First term of GP is, a = 3

It is required to find the sum of the first 8 terms in the series. The sum of first n terms of a GP is given by :

S_n=\dfrac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}, r>1

Here, n = 8

S_8=\dfrac{3\times ((4)^8-1)}{4-1}\\\\S_8=65535

So, the sum of the first 8 terms in the series is 65535.

A ball is thrown vertically in the air with a velocity of 95 ft/s. What time in seconds is the ball at a height of 120ft. Round
masha68 [24]

Answer:

On the way up, 1.8 seconds and on the way down 4.1 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the  motion under gravity  equation s = ut + 0.5gt^2 where u = initial velocity, s = the height, t = time and g = acceleration due to gravity ( 32 fts-2).

So 120 = 95t + 0.5(-32)t^2

-16t^2 + 95t - 120 = 0

Solving this using the quadratic formula:

t = [-95 +/- √(95^2 - 4 * -16*-120)] / -32

t = 1.823, 4.1148.

The first value refers to the upward journey and the second to the downward journey.
