Answer:
QS = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
if R is the midpoint, then the two divided segments are equal to each other.
5x - 3 = 21 - x
Add x
6x - 3 = 21
Add 3.
6x = 24
Divide 6.
x = 4
Substitute this x value into any equation.
5(4) - 3 = 20 - 3 = 17
So half of QS is 17.
QS = 17 * 2 = 34
This pattern appears to alternate between doubling and subtracting by 1.
To get from 3 to 6, we multiply by two.
To get from 6 to 5, we subtract one.
To get from 5 to 10, we multiply by two.
To get from 10 to 9, we subtract one.
To get from 9 to 18, we multiply by two.
To get from 18 to 17, we subtract one.
Therefore, next we need to multiply by two.
17 x 2 = 34
So, the next number is 34.
To find the number after, we subtract one.
34 - 1 = 33
Thus, the number after is 33.
In conclusion, the next two numbers are 34 and 33.
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b = 40 and -40
Step-by-step explanation:
General form of Perfect square trinomial is a 2 + 2 a b + b 2
Therefore from 16 x 2 − b x + 25 a 2 = √ 16 x 2 , b 2 = 25 , then a = ± 4 x , b = ± 5 take consideration a=4x and b=-5 (different sign), then − b x = 2 ( 4 x ) ( − 5 ) − b x = − 40 x b = 40
The perfect square is ( 4 x − 5 ) 2 = 16 x 2 − 40 x + 25 .
if we consider a=4x and b=5 (same sign), then − b x = 2 ( 4 x ) ( 5 ) − b x = 40 x b = − 40
The perfect square is ( 4 x + 5 ) 2 = 16 x 2 + 40 x + 25 .
The first solution ( 4 x − 5 ) 2 is the best solution after comparing the expression given. I hope this helps, xx .
Answer:
24.2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The basic formula is I = P * i * t, where I is interest, P is total principal (or profit), i is rate of interest per year, and t is total time in years. I = P * i * t can be rearranged to solve for t: t = I / (i * p).
In this question I = $6400, P = $3200 and i = 8.25%, so we plug in those numbers to get t = 6400 / (0.0825 * 3200), which solves to 24.2424 years.
