Answer:
dividing by 100
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line is the gradient, which you can find through rise over run
m (gradient) = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2)
where (x1, y1) is the coordinate of the first point, and (x2, x2) is the coordinate of the second point
in your question:
x1 = -4
x2 = 19
y1 = -13
y2 = 11
m = (-13 -11) / (-4 -19) = -24 / -23 = 24/23 or 1.04 (2d.p.)
hope that helps :)
It's the one on the bottom left that says 5ft and 3ft, they're the same shape and ratio just turned around. It's also the square that says 6ft and 10ft because its only two times bigger than the original and has similar proportions.
Answers:
x = -8/5 or x = 8/5
Sum of the first ten terms where all terms are positive = 4092
========================================================
Explanation:
r = common ratio
- first term = 4
- second term = (first term)*(common ratio) = 4r
- third term = (second term)*(common ratio) = (4r)*r = 4r^2
The first three terms are: 4, 4r, 4r^2
We're given that the sequence is: 4, 5x, 16
Therefore, we have these two equations
Solve the second equation for r and you should find that r = -2 or r = 2 are the only possible solutions. If r = -2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = -8/5. If r = 2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = 8/5.
-----------------
To find the sum of the first n terms, we use this geometric series formula
Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
We have
- a = 4 = first term
- r = 2, since we want all the terms to be positive
- n = 10 = number of terms to sum up
So,
Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
S10 = 4*(1 - 2^10)/(1 - 2)
S10 = 4*(1 - 1024)/(-1)
S10 = 4*(-1023)/(-1)
S10 = 4092
Price of Brand A toothpaste for 17.4 ounces = <span>$5.22
</span>Price of Brand A toothpaste for 1 ounce = $5.22/17.4 = 0.3
Price of Brand B toothpaste for 26.6 ounces = $6.65
Price of Brand B toothpaste for 1 ounces = $6.65/26.6 = 0.25
So, if we see the price for per ounce of brand A and B, price of Brand B per ounce is less than brand A.
and if we find the difference between the prices of both = 0.3 - 0.25 = 0.05
Thus, the correct answer is "D", <span>Brand B is the better deal, because it costs $0.05 less per ounce than Brand A".</span>
