1. move 78.2 over to the over side. This will give you 287-78.2.

2. when you have .5x = 208.8, divide both sides by .5

3. this should give you x= 417.6

4. make sure to check your work by plugging you answer back into x.

x*78.2+0.5=287

x*78.2*10+0.5*10=287*10

782+5=2870

782x+5-5=2865

782x=2865

782x/782=2865/782

2865/782

The sum of the first three terms of geometric sequence is 14. If the first term is 2, find the possible values of the sum of the

Irina18 [472]

Geometric series are in the form of

$a +a*r +a*r^2+...$

Where a is the first term and r is the common ratio .

And it is given that

$2 +2*r +2*r^2=14$

$2r^2+2r-12=0$

$r^2 +r-6=0$

$(r+3)(r-2)=0$

r=-3,2

So the first five terms are

$2+2(-3)+2(-3)^2+2(-3)^3+2(-3)^4 or 2+2(2)+2(2)^2+2(2)^3+2(2)^4$

= 2-6+18-54+162 or 2+4+8+16+32

= 122 or 62

Geometry Homework Question

mash [69]

Answer:

Distance is 8.485

Midpoint is (3,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the points (-1,7) and (5,1)

Insert them into the equation and solve for D

$D=\sqrt{x} ((5-(-1))^2 + (1-7)^2)\\D=\sqrt{x} ((6)^2 + (-6)^2)\\D=\sqrt{x} (36+36)\\D=\sqrt{x} (72)\\D=8.485$

Insert points into second equation to find midpoint

$(\frac{_1+5}{2} , \frac{7+1}{2}) \\(\frac{6}{2} ,\frac{8}{2} )\\(3,4)$
