The fourth term of an arithmetic

Mathematics
1 answer:
yulyashka [42]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given AP where:</u>

  • a₄ = 2a₂ - 1
  • a₆ = 7

<u>To find</u>

  • a₁ = ?

<u>Since</u>

  • a₄ = a₁ + 3d
  • a₂ = a₁ + d
  • a₆ = a₁ + 5d

<u>Initial equations will change as:</u>

  • a₁ + 3d = 2(a₁ + d) - 1  ⇒  a₁ + 3d = 2a₁ + 2d - 1 ⇒ a₁ = d + 1
  • a₁ + 5d = 7 ⇒ a₁ = 7 - 5d

<u>Comparing the above:</u>

  • d + 1 = 7 - 5d
  • 6d = 6
  • d = 1

<u>Then:</u>

  • a₁ = d + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2
  • a₁ = 2

The first term is 2

Which of the following statements are never true? Select all that apply. Three points are coplanar Two planes meet in exactly on
statuscvo [17]

Answer: Two planes meet in exactly one point

Two lines meet at exactly two points


Step-by-step explanation:

From the given statements there are two statements which are never true :-

1) Two planes meet in exactly one point .

Since when two line meets , they either meet at one point or infinite points (coincidence) , thus its impossible that they will meet at exactly two points.

2) Two lines meet at exactly two points

Since when two planes meet , the intersection of two plane always make a line not a point. Thus its impossible.

At a local clothing store, Morgan finds they are having a storewide 40% off sale. She also has a $15 coupon which applies to her
LuckyWell [14K]

Morgan should first take the 40% off then apply the $15 coupon

Lets say her total was $150.

If you take the 40% off first, you get $90

150 * .6 = 90 (since you are taking off 40% you are still paying the rest of the 60% so you can just save extra steps by multiplying by .6 and not .4)

Now you subtract 15 from that value.

90 - 15 = 75 If Morgan takes the 40% off first and then applies the $15 dollar coupon, she has to pay $75.

If she applies the $15 coupon first, her total before the 40% is $135

150 - 15 = 135

The total will come out to be $81

$135 * .6 = 81

If Morgan takes the discount first before applying the coupon she has to pay less and saves the most money.

….."………….."……how do u do dis?
raketka [301]

Answer:

x = -25

Step-by-step explanation:

3 -  \frac{x}{5}  = 8

5(3 -  \frac{x}{5} ) = 5 \times 8

5 \times 3 - 5 \times  \frac{x}{5}  = 5 \times 8

15 - 5 \times  \frac{x}{5}  = 40

15 - x = 40

- x = 40 - 15

- x = 25

x =  - 25
