Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of n terms of a geometric series with first term a1 and common ratio r is given by ...

  Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)

for r=5 and n=6, this becomes ...

  15624 = a1·(5^6 -1)/(5 -1) = a1·(15624/4)

Then we have ...

  1 = a1/4 . . . . . divide by 15624

  4 = a1 . . . . . . multiply by 4

The first term of the series is 4.

What number does x stand for in this equation?<br><br> -7x + 6=27
AURORKA [14]
⓵ You need to solve the left side first in order to isolate the × and find it’s value :

-7× + 6 = 27
-6 -6
↓

-7× = 21
÷-7 ÷-7

↓

× = -3

If you find it too difficult to divide a number by a negative, just divide 21 by 7 and always remember that when dividing, when the signs are different the answer is negative. So knowing that you could just divide 21 by 7, which is 3, and add a negative sign in front!


I hope this helped, if there’s anything let me know! ☻

Solve the polynomial inequation and graph the solution set on a number line. Express the solution in interval notation.
kirill [66]
Solving a polynomial inequation

Solving the following inequation:

(x - 8) (x + 1) > 0

We are going to find the sign both parts of the multiplication,

(x - 8) and (x + 1), have when

x < - 8

-8 < x < 1

1 < x

Then we know (x - 8) (x + 1) > 0 whenever (x - 8) (x + 1) is positive

We can see in the figure (x - 8) (x + 1) is positive when x < -8 and x > 1

Then
