The formula for secant lines is the outside x the overall length is equal to the outside times the overall length of the second line.

A) 5*(x+5) = 6*10

SImplify:

5x +25 = 60

Subtract 25 from both sides:

5x = 35

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 35/5

x = 7

B) 3*8 = 4*(x+4)

Simplify:

24 = 4x +16

Subtract 16 from both sides:

4x = 8

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 8/4

X = 2

the sum of the first n terms of a sequence is 20 - 10 / 2 ^ n - 1 find the sum of the first five terms​
Travka [436]

Answer:

S_5=\dfrac{170}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The sum of first n term of a sequence isS_n=20-\dfrac{10}{2n-1}

We need to find the sum of the first 5 terms.

Put n = 5,

S_5=20-\dfrac{10}{2(5)-1}\\\\=20-\dfrac{10}{10-1}\\\\=20-\dfrac{10}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{170}{9}

So, the sum of first 5 terms is equal to \dfrac{170}{9}.
