A₆ =12
a₇ = ?? = x
a₈ 27
In this case x is the geometric mean & as per the formula
geometric mean of 2 numbers =√(a₆ * a₈) = √(12*27)
& x=18.
Proof:
Find the common ratio between a₇ & a₆ ==> = ( x) / 12
now find the common ration between a₈ & a₇ ===> =27 / (x)
x/12 = 27/x ===> x² = 12*27 ==> x² = 324 & x =√324 = 18
First we write the variables already defined:
m = the number of magazine subscriptions sold
n = the number of newspaper subscriptions sold
We now write the system of inequations based on the following facts:
"he earns $ 23 for each magazine subscription and $ 54 for each newspaper subscription that he sells. his goal is to make more than $ 642 per week"
23m + 54n> 642
"I have expectations to sell at least 10 subscriptions per week"
m + n> = 10
Answer:
A system of inequalities that models the given situation is:
23m + 54n> 642
m + n> = 10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
3x +8y = -17
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope equation is a good place to start.
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . equation through (h, k) with slope m
Filling in your numbers gives ...
y +4 = -3/8(x -5)
Multiplying by 8, we get
8y + 32 = -3x + 15
Adding 3x-32 puts this in standard form.
3x + 8y = -17
_____
Standard form is ...
ax +by = c
where a, b, c are mutually-prime integers and the leading coefficient is positive. (If a=0, the leading coefficient is b.)
