Answer:

\displaystyle a_8=142,11\ mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence

Each term in a geometric sequence can be computed as the previous term by a constant number called the common ratio. The formula to get the term n is

\displaystyle a_n=a_1r^{n-1}

where a_1 is the first term of the sequence

The problem describes Georgie took 275 mg of the medicine for her cold in the first hour and that in each subsequent hour, the amount of medicine in her body is 91% (0.91) of the amount from the previous hour. It can be written as

amount in hour n = amount in hour n-1 * 0.91

a)

This information provides the necessary data to write the general term as

\displaystyle a_n=275\ .\ 0.91^{n-1}

b)

In the 8th hour (n=8), the remaining medicine present is Georgie's body is

\displaystyle a_n=275\ .\ 0.91^{8-1}

\displaystyle a_n=275\ .\ 0.91^{7}

\boxed{\displaystyle a_8=142,11\ mg}

So here's the question
Lesechka [4]
Yes, is subtraction, to get their "difference".

first off, let's convert the mixed fractions, to "improper", and then subtract.

\bf \stackrel{red~yarn}{9\frac{1}{5}}-\stackrel{blue~yarn}{3\frac{11}{25}}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{9\frac{1}{5}}\implies \cfrac{9\cdot 5+1}{5}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{46}{5}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{11}{25}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 25+11}{25}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{86}{25}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{46}{5}-\cfrac{86}{25}\impliedby \textit{our LCD is 25}\implies \cfrac{(5\cdot 46)~~-~~(1\cdot 86)}{25}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{230~-~86}{25}\implies \cfrac{144}{25}\implies 5\frac{19}{25}

Two factors of -48 have a difference of 19. The factor with a
sdas [7]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number = -48

Listing out the possible factors of -48 in pairs along with their difference:

Factors (F_1\times F_2)  Difference (F1-F2)   Difference (F_2-F_1)

-2\times 24                  -26                                  26

2\times -24                  26                                 -26

-3\times 16                   -19                                   19

3\times -16                   19                                  -19

-4\times 12                   -16                                   16

4\times -12                   16                                  -16

6\times -8                   -14                                   14

12\times -4                   14                                  -14

On listing out the factors we find out that two of the pairs have difference = 19

The pairs are -3, 16 and  3,-16

It is given that the factor with greater absolute value is positive. This means 16 would be positive while 3 would be negative.

So, our factors are -3, 16

The sum of the factors is = -3+16=13 (Answer)
