Answer:

Country A produces 20,000,000 & Country B produces 5,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

amount of diamonds produced by country A be x

and

amount of diamonds produced by country B be y

Since, Country A produces 4 times that of Country B, we can write:

x = 4y

Also, both countries produces a total of 25,000,000 carats, so we can write:

x + y = 25,000,000

Now, we need to find x and y. Putting 1st equation into 2nd equation, we get equation in y. Then we solve for y:

x + y = 25,000,000

4y + y = 25,000,000

5y = 25,000,000

y = 25,000,000/5

y = 5,000,000

And now, x = 4y, so x = 4(5,000,000) = 20,000,000

So Country A produces 20,000,000 & Country B produces 5,000,000 diamond carats

Write an explicit and a recursive formula for each sequence. -32,-20,-8,4,16, . . . . . .
wlad13 [49]

an=a1+d(n−1)  is the explicit and a recursive formula for each sequence .

<h3>What is sequence?</h3>

See the pattern

-32-(-20) = -12

-20-(-8) = -12

-8-4 = -12

By this the explicit and a recursive formula for each sequence is  an=a1+d(n−1).

An ordered group of numbers with a shared difference between each succeeding word is known as an arithmetic sequence. For instance, the common difference in the arithmetic series 3, 9, 15, 21, and 27 is 6.

Arithmetic sequences are sequences containing these patterns. The distance between succeeding terms in an arithmetic series is always the same. The difference between consecutive words is always two, hence the sequence 3, 5, 7, 9... is arithmetic.

An explicit formula that states a = d (n - 1) + c, where d is the common difference between succeeding words, and c = a1, can be used to establish an arithmetic sequence.

HELP ASAPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

you have a straight line and a straight line measures 180.  You have a 90 degree symbol.

180 = 90 + 47 + 2x + 13

180 = 150 + 2x  Subtract 150 from both sides of the equation

30 = 2x  Divide both sides by 2

15 = x
