Answer:

y = (6/11)x + 13/11

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c

m = (-1-5)/(-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11

y = (6/11)x + c

When x = 7, y = 5

5 = (6/11)(7) + c

5 = 42/11 + c

c = 5 - 42/11

c = 13/11

y = (6/11)x + 13/11

11y = 6x + 13

How many gallons of a 70% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 60% a

Flura [38]

We have 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze.

How much 70% antifreeze do we add to get 60% antifreeze?

We'll make "x" the gallons of 70% we must add.

.20 * 60 + .70 x = .60 * (60 + x)

12 + .70x = 36 + .60x

.10x = 24

x = 240 gallons of 70% antifreeze.

Mohamed and Li Jing were asked to find an explicit formula for the sequence -5, -25, -125, -625,....

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Li Jing's formula i.e. $\boxed{g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}}$ is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the sequence

$-5,\:-25,\:-125,\:-625,...$

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio r and is defined by

$g_n=g_0\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:ratios\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms}:\quad \:r=\frac{g_{n+1}}{g_n}$

$\frac{-25}{-5}=5,\:\quad \frac{-125}{-25}=5,\:\quad \frac{-625}{-125}=5$

$\mathrm{The\:ratio\:of\:all\:the\:adjacent\:terms\:is\:the\:same\:and\:equal\:to}$

$r=5$

So, the sequence is geometric.

$\mathrm{The\:first\:element\:of\:the\:sequence\:is}$

$g_1=-5$

$r=5$

$g_n=g_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$\mathrm{Therefore,\:the\:}n\mathrm{th\:term\:is\:computed\:by}\:$

$g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}$

Therefore, Li Jing's formula i.e. $\boxed{g_n=-5\cdot \:5^{n-1}}$ is right.
