Answer:

Given the following geometric sequence, find the common ratio. {0.45, 0.9, 1.8, ...} 0.45 0.9 2

Given the following geometric sequence {0.45, 0.9, 1.8, ...}, the common ratio is 2. The common ratio = 1.8/0.9 = 0.9/0.45 = 2

What is bigger 9/10 or 7/8

Nataliya [291]

You start by cross multiplying:
9 x 8 = 72
This is considered the fraction on the left's value.
You do the same for the other side:
10 x 7 = 70
This is considered the value of the fraction 7/8
72 has a greater value than 70.

Therefore, 9/10 is larger.

The perimeter of a triangle is 42 yards. The first side is 5 yards less than the second side, and the third side is 2 yards less

Maru [420]

Let the second side be equal to x Then the first side is x-5 The third side will be x-5-2 = x-7 Therefore you add all the following sides and equate it to 42 yards. Ie x+x+5+x-7 = 42 3x=44 X= 44/3 Therefore the second sides length is 44/3 The first sides length is 44/3 -5 = 29/3 The third side is 44/3 -7 = 23/3

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 20% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 70% pure anti

andre [41]

Answer:

First brand of antifreeze: 21 gallons

Second brand of antifreeze: 9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of first brand of antifreeze. 20% pure antifreeze

Let's call B the amount of second brand of antifreeze. 70% pure antifreeze

The resulting mixture should have 35% pure antifreeze, and 30 gallons.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

$A + B = 30$

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

$0.2A + 0.7B = 0.35 * 30$

$0.2A + 0.7B = 10.5$

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.7 and add it to the second equation:

$-0.7A -0.7B = -0.7*30$
