Mathematics

Answer:

  a14 = -40,960

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence has a first term of 5 and a common ratio of -10/5 = -2, so the n-th term is given by ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

  an = 5·(-2)^(n-1)

The 14th term is then ...

  a14 = 5·(-2)^(14-1) = -5·2^13 = -5·8192

  a14 = -40,960

The sum of two numbers is 31.The product of the two numbers is 150. What are the two numbers?
Nikolay [14]
The two numbers I will call x and y.
x + y = 31
x * y = 150

You then solve for one variable in either equation and substitute it into the other equation.

x + y = 31
x = 31 - y

Then you plug it in:
x * y = 150
(31 - y) * y = 150
-y² + 31y = 150
y² - 31y + 150 = 0            Then factor:
(y - 6)(y - 25) = 0
y - 6 = 0        y - 25 = 0
y = 6             y = 25

When you plug y into the original equations, it comes out that the two numbers are 6 and 25. You can check your work because 6+25 = 31 and 6*25 = 150. Hope this helps! :)

8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.
iVinArrow [24]
8(x - 6) = 4x
Distribute.
8x - 48 = 4x
Subtract 8x from both sides.
8x -8x - 48 =4x -8x
Now you have...
-48 = -4x
Divide -4 by both sides.
-48/-4 = -4x/-4
12 = x
The number is 12.
