Answer:
7 times as many lemons
Step-by-step explanation:
56/8 = 7
10 to the 2nd power only means 10x10=100
35.6/100=0.256
35.6/10x10=0.256
Answer:
799
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the hundreds digit
Let y = the ones digit
x = y-2
We want to maximize x and y. The both have to be single digit numbers
Rewriting this
x+2 =y
The largest x can be is 7 if y is a single digit
x is 7 and y is 9
We can pick the tens digit. Make it as big as possible to make out number as large as possible
799
174 is equal to 174 if thats what the last one means
Ooh, fun
geometric sequences can be represented as

so the first 3 terms are



the sum is -7/10

and their product is -1/125

from the 2nd equation we can take the cube root of both sides to get

note that a=ar/r and ar²=(ar)r
so now rewrite 1st equation as

subsituting -1/5 for ar

which simplifies to

multiply both sides by 10r
-7r=-2-2r-2r²
add (2r²+2r+2) to both sides
2r²-5r+2=0
solve using quadratic formula
for


so
for 2r²-5r+2=0
a=2
b=-5
c=2




so

or

use them to solve for the value of a


try for r=2 and 1/2

or

test each
for a=-1/10 and r=2
a+ar+ar²=

it works
for a=-2/5 and r=1/2
a+ar+ar²=

it works
both have the same terms but one is simplified
the 3 numbers are
