Answer:
r= 3 h = 6 then use 3^2 + 6^2 = l^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
To determine the common ratio of a geometric sequence. You just need to divide any two consecutive terms on it. You can see below that all of them have the same quotient.
1.2 / 1.5 = 0.8
0.96 / 1.2 = 0.8
0.768 / 0.96 = 0.8
.
Decimal form = 0.8
Fraction form = 4/5
.
Check:
1.5 x 0.8 = 1.2
1.5 x 4/5 = 6/5 = 1 1/5 = 1.2
Therefore, the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence? 1.5, 1.2, 0.96, 0.768 is 0.8 or 4/5.
Answer:
Large boxes are 18.25 kg
Small boxes are 15.25 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a system of equations. You need to set up each equation first.
I am assigning x to be big boxes and y to be small boxes.
5x + 3y = 137
2x + 6y = 128
To solve, you will need to eliminate a variable. That means you will have to multiply one of the equations by a number to make it so a variable will be eliminated. I will be multiplying the top equation by -2.
-2 ( 5x + 3y = 137)
2x + 6y = 128
Distribute the -2 to everything in the parentheses in the first equation.
-10x - 6y = -274
2x + 6y = 128
Notice the 6y will go away because -6y + 6y = 0. Now add the equations together. The remaining equation is:
-8x = -146
Solve for x by dividing by -8.
x = 18.25
Now plug that into one of the original equations.
2(18.25) + 6y = 128.
36.5 + 6y = 128 Subtract 36.5 from each side
-36.5 -36.5
6y = 91.5 Divide by 6 to solve
y = 15.25
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - 4s = - 8 - 6s
Bringing like terms on one side
-4s + 6s = - 8 - 6
2s = - 14
S = - 14/2
S = - 7
