This is a geometric sequence because each term is twice the value of the previous term.  So this is what would be called the common ratio, which in this case is 2.  Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1), a(n)=nth value, a=initial value, r=common ratio, n=term number

In this case we have r=2 and a=1 so

a(n)=2^(n-1)  so on the sixth week he will run:

a(6)=2^5=32

He will run 32 blocks by the end of the sixth week.

Now if you wanted to know the total amount he runs in the six weeks, you need the sum of the terms and the sum of a geometric sequence is:

s(n)=a(1-r^n)/(1-r)  where the variables have the same values so

s(n)=(1-2^n)/(1-2)

s(n)=2^n-1 so 

s(6)=2^6-1

s(6)=64-1

s(6)=63 blocks

So he would run a total of 63 blocks in the six weeks.

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to the line 2x - 3y = 5 and passes through the point (2, -1)
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The equation of the line is 2x - 3y = 7 ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the relation between the parallel lines

- If two lines are equal then their slopes are equal

- We can make an equation of a line by using its slope and

 a point on the line

- If the slope of the line is m and passing through the point (x1 , y1),

 then we can use this form [y - y1]/[x - x1] = m to find the equation

* Lets solve the problem

- The line is parallel to the line 2x - 3y = 5

∴ the slope of the line = the slope of the line 2x - 3y = 5

- Rearrange the terms of the equation to be in the form

  y = mx + c to find the slope of it

∵ 2x - 3y = 5 ⇒ subtract 2x from both sides

∴ -3y = 5 - 2x ⇒ divide two sides by -3

∴ y = 5/-3 - 2x/-3 ⇒ y = 2/3 x - 5/3

∴ The slop of the line is 2/3

∵ The line passes through point (2 , -1)

* Lets use the rule to find the equation of the line

∵ y - (-1)/x - 2 = 2/3

∴ y + 1/x - 2 = 2/3 ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ 3(y + 1) = 2(x - 2) ⇒ open the brackets

∴ 3y + 3 = 2x - 4 ⇒ put x an d y in one side

∴ 2x - 3y = 3 + 4

∴ 2x - 3y = 7

* The equation of the line is 2x - 3y = 7
