The value of the 4th term is 80. the sequence is being doubled each step what is the 7th term?

1 answer:

8 0

This is a geometric sequence with common ratio (r) = 2.
an = ar^(n - 1)
a4 = a(2)^(4 - 1) = a(2)^3 = 8a
8a = 80
a = 80/8 = 10

7th term (a7) = 10(2)^(7 - 1) = 10(2^6) = 10(64) = 640

Answer:

G) 16.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pythagoriam theroem to solve the problem

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$

$a^{2} + 7^{2} = 18^{2}$

$a^{2}$ + 49 = 324

$a^{2}$ = 275

a = 16.6

Carmin is trying to find the equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,16) and (5,88) . Does the equation y=12x+28 w

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Yes! The equation, y = 12x + 28 , work.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through points (-1, 16) and (5, 88)

The slope of the line = change in y ÷ change in x

i.e slope = $\frac{88 - 16}{5 - -1}$ = 12

Taking another point (x ,y) on the line;

Slope is $\frac{y - 16}{x - -1}$ = 12

y - 16 = 12x + 12

y = 12x + 12 + 16

y = 12x + 28

So the equation, y = 12x + 28, work!

An inheritance of $40,000 is divided among three investments yielding $3,500 in interest per year. The interest rates for the th

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

x = $ 16,000 , y = $13,000 z= $11,000

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

Investment amount $40,000

three investments yielding = $3,500

three investments are 7%, 9%, and 11%

second and third are $3,000 and $5,000 less than the first

0.07 x + 0.09 y + 0.11 z = $ 3,500

x + (x - 3000 ) + (x - 5000) = $ 40,000

3x = $48,000

x = $ 16,000

y = 16000 - 3000 = $ 13,000

z = 16000 - 5000 = $ 11,000

the investment by each

x = $ 16,000 , y = $13,000 z= $11,000
