Answer:

16.66pound

Step-by-step explanation:

roughly 16.66 pound

if in 6 years it become half which is =10

then 10÷6= 1.67

then 1.67 pound is decayed every year.

in 2 years it decay 1.67×2= 3.34

so , the remaining is 20-3.34=16.66pound

Given that ∠Ф = 180°, determine the numerical value of this function.

Rudiy27

Answer:

The answer to your question is 3. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

For an angle of 180°:

- hypotenuse = 1

- Adjacent side = 1

- Opposite side = 0

Then, sin Ф = $\frac{Opposite side}{Hypotenuse}$

sin 180° = $\frac{0}{1}$

sin 180° = 0

Divide the following polynomial, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid.

6x² + 11x - 35 = (3x - 5)(2x + 7)

=> (3x - 5)(2x + 7)/(3x - 5)

i.e. 2x + 7...........as the 3x - 5 term cancels.

HURRY 20 POINTS!!!!! Given the geometric sequence an = 6(5)n − 1, which of the following values for n lies in the appropriate do

Lapatulllka [165]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

n = 1

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Here we have the following Geometric Sequence:

$a_{n} = 6(5)^{n-1}$

Where:

$a=6 \ \text{First term} \\ \\ r=5 \ \text{Common ratio} \\ \\ n: \ \text{Number of terms}$

The first term occurs when $n=1$ . Next the second term occurs when $n=2$ , the third term when $n=3$ and so on. Therefore, the appropriate value of n that lies on the domain for n is $n=1$
