Answer: He has 287 home runs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define:
H = home runs of Hank
J = home runs of Jones.
We know that:
H = 2*J - 181
H = 755
Then we can replace the second equation into the first one:
755 = 2*J - 181
(755 - 181)/2 = J
287 = J
Answer:
12/13
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the segment from the origin to the terminal point is ...
r = √((-5)² +12²) = √169 = 13
The sine of the angle is the ratio of the y-coordinate to this distance
sin(θ) = y/r = 12/13
_____
Additional comment
The other trig functions are ...
cos(θ) = x/r = -5/13
tan(θ) = y/x = -12/5
This is a 2nd-quadrant angle, where the sine is positive, but the cosine and tangent are negative.
1/9 or 1/3 hope this helps!
Ooh, fun
geometric sequences can be represented as

so the first 3 terms are



the sum is -7/10

and their product is -1/125

from the 2nd equation we can take the cube root of both sides to get

note that a=ar/r and ar²=(ar)r
so now rewrite 1st equation as

subsituting -1/5 for ar

which simplifies to

multiply both sides by 10r
-7r=-2-2r-2r²
add (2r²+2r+2) to both sides
2r²-5r+2=0
solve using quadratic formula
for


so
for 2r²-5r+2=0
a=2
b=-5
c=2




so

or

use them to solve for the value of a


try for r=2 and 1/2

or

test each
for a=-1/10 and r=2
a+ar+ar²=

it works
for a=-2/5 and r=1/2
a+ar+ar²=

it works
both have the same terms but one is simplified
the 3 numbers are
