The rule starting with five. 5 marbles in first line.

Every consecutive line has a number that is four less than twice the previous line.

marbles in second line = 2(marbles in first line) - 4

So the number of marbles in second line = 2(5) -4 = 10-4 = 6

marbles in third line = 2(marbles in second line) - 4

So the number of marbles in second line = 2(6) -4 = 12-4 = 8

marbles in fourth line = 2(marbles in third line) - 4

So the number of marbles in fourth line = 2(8) -4 = 16-4 = 12

marbles in fifth line = 2(marbles in fourth line) - 4

So the number of marbles in fifth line = 2(12) -4 = 24-4 = 20

marbles in sixth  line = 2(marbles in fifth line) - 4

So the number of marbles in sixth line = 2(20) -4 = 40-4 = 36

36 marbles must be in the sixth line.

Answer:

#3: x is approximately 0.37, -5.37, #4: x is approximately 4.19, -1.19

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve using the quadratic equation or by solving with the perfect square

\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a} = x^{2}+5x-2=0\\ \frac{-5+/-\sqrt{5^{2}-4(1)(-2) }}{2(1)}

x is approximately 0.37, -5.37

I need help with geometry:
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

6/18 = x/(20-x)

1/3 = x/(20-x) Multiply both sides by 20-x

(20-x)/3 = x Multiply both sides by 3

20-x = 3x Add x in both sides

20 = 4x Divide both sides by 4

5 = x
