Round to the near at tenth | 3x + 1 | =22

sdas [7]

Answer:

x =7 x = -7 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

| 3x + 1 | =22

Absolute value equations have 2 solutions, one positive and one negative

3x+1 = 22 3x+1 = -22

Subtract 1 from each side

3x+1-1 =22-1 3x+1-1 = -22-1

3x= 21 3x = -23

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 = 21/3 3x/3 = -23/3

x =7 x = -7 2/3

Reuben learned in art class that a mosaic is made by arranging small pieces of colored material such as glass or tile to create

anastassius [24]

Pattern is the rule that guides the formation of a set.

The sequence of the first five mosaics is 5, 8, 11, 14, 17
The sequence is arithmetic
There are 32 tiles in the tenth mosaic.

From the given design, the number of tiles used is:

$T_1 = 5$

$T_2 = 8$

$T_3 = 11$

(a) The first five

Notice that the difference in the number of tiles of successive mosaic is 3.

This means that:

$T_4 = T_3 + 3 = 11 +3 = 14$

$T_5 = T_4 + 3 = 14 +3 = 17$

So, the sequence of the first five mosaics is 5, 8, 11, 14, 17

(b) The type of sequence

The sequence is arithmetic

This is so, because the difference in the number of tiles of successive mosaic is 3.

This difference is called the common difference

(c) The number of tiles in the tenth mosaic

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:

$T_n = T_1 + (n - 1) \times d$

In this case:

$T_1 = 5$

$d =3$

$n = 10$

So, we have:

$T_{10} = 5 + (10 - 1) \times 3$

$T_{10} = 5 + 9 \times 3$

$T_{10} = 5 + 27$

$T_{10} = 32$

There are 32 tiles in the tenth mosaic.

Last week Lisa had gross earning of $441.30. Cathy receives a base salary of $375 and a commision on sales exceeding her quota o

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

4.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the commission paid

Commission = Gross earning - base salary

Commission = 441.3 - 375

Commission = 66.3

Step 2: Calculate the commission sales

Commission sales = Total sales - quota sales

Commission sales = 6560 - 5000

Commission sales = 1560

Step 3: Calculate the rate of commission

x% of 1560 = 66.3

x% * 1560 = 66.3

x% = 0.0425

x = 4.25%

Therefore, the rate of commission was 4.25%.
