vivado [14]

Answer:

-39,063

Step-by-step explanation:

In this geometric, sequence, you are multiplying by -5. So, we can continue the sequence by mulitplying 375(your last value) by -5 and so on, until we have 7 total terms.

Now we add the terms together:

-3+15+-75+375+-1875+9375+-46875

=-3+15-75+375-1875+9375-46875

=-39063

36 3⁄4 gallons of water come out of a hose in 15 minutes. Write the ratio in fractional form and determine the water rate in gal
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If 3⁄4 gallons of water come out of a hose in 15 minutes, to calculate the rate of water that comes out in an hour (60 minutes), we will use the expression;

3/4 gallons = 15 minutes

x gallons = 60minutes

cross multiply

15x = 3/4 * 60

15x = 180/4

15x = 45

x = 45/15

x = 3/1

x = 3:1

Hence the water rate in gallons per hour is 3 gallons per hour

madreJ [45]
The first figure has 3 angles, the second one has 4 angles, the third one has 5 angles so the next one will have 6 angles.

Anni [7]

Answer: the cost of each bush is $15

the cost of each flower is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of each bush.

Let y represent the cost of each flower.

Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as

12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1

Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as

7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes

84x + 210y = 1680

84x + 120y = 1500

Subtracting, it becomes

90y = 180

y = 180/90

y = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

12x + 30 × 2 = 240

12x + 60 = 240

12x = 240 - 60 = 180

x = 180/12

x = 15
