Answer:

12 is thy number lol

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x + 3 = 5 - 2/3x

You get 3 = 5 - 1/6x

Subtract the five.

-2 = -1/6x

Multiply by -6

x = 12

You are Buying snacks. you buy 8 apples and 2 juices. the juice costs $1.75 each. The total cost is 9.50. How much is 1 apple?
DENIUS [597]

Answer: Each apple would cost $0.75.

Step-by-step explanation: If each juice is $1.75, then 2 of them equal $3.5. Subtract this from $9.50 to get 6 dollars remaining. We know now we can buy 8 apples from the remaining 6 dollars. So from this, divide 6 by 8, you get $0.75.

What is the sum of the first five terms of a geometric series with a1 =20 and r =1/4?
drek231 [11]
The sum of the first n terms in a geometric sequence given the first term (a1) and the common ratio (r) is calculated through the equation,

                            <span>Sn </span>= (<span><span><span>a1</span>(1−<span>r^n</span>) / (</span><span>1−r)

Substituting the known terms,
                           Sn = (20)(1 - (1/4)^4)) / (1 - 1/4)
                           Sn = 26.5625

Thus, the sum of the first four terms is 26.5625. </span></span>
