Answer:

Day 1 =8

Day 2 = 12

Day 3 = 18

Day 4 = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be how far he rode on the first day

He rode 1.5 times how far he rode on the first day on the second day

1.5 x is how far he rode on the second day

He rode 1.5 times how far he rode on the second day on the third day

1.5(1.5 x) is how far he rode on the third day

2.25x

He rode 1.5 times how far he rode on the third day on the fourth day

1.5(2.25x) is how far he rode on the fourth day

3.375x

He needs to ride a total of 65 miles

day 1 + day 2 + day3 + day 4 = 65 miles

x + 1.5x + 2.25x + 3.375x = 65

Combine like terms

8.125x = 65

Divide each side by 8.125

8.125x/8.125 = 65/8.125

x=8

He needs to start with 8 miles on the first day

x=8

1.5x = 12

2.25x =18

3.375x =27

Day 1 =8

Day 2 = 12

Day 3 = 18

Day 4 = 27

Tell whether the lines for each pair of questions are parallel or perpendicular or neither y=5/3x+3. 20x+12y=12

disa [49]

neither

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

• The product of perpendicular slopes = - 1

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = $\frac{5}{3}$ x + 3 is in this form

with slope m = $\frac{5}{3}$

rearrange 20x + 12y = 12 into this form

subtract 20x from both sides

12y = - 20x + 12 ( divide all terms by 12 )

y = - $\frac{5}{3}$ + 1 ← in slope-intercept form

with slope m = - $\frac{5}{3}$

Neither of the conditions for parallel/ perpendicular slopes are met

Hence the lines are neither parallel/ perpendicular

The first sequence, it is increase +1 for every number, because 2-3 is 1, 3 - 5 is 2, and 5 - 8 is 3. So, lets add 4 to 8, and we will know the next number of the sequence.

4 + 8 = 12

So, the next number in the first sequence is:

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 12

Second Sequence:

The second equation is doing exactly the same thing (it increases by 1 every number it goes) just this one is decreasing.

Proof: 26 - 24 is 2, 24 - 21 is 3, and 21 - 17 is 4.

Lets subtract 5 to 17 to know the next number.

17 - 5 = 12

So our next number is:

26, 24, 21, 17, 12
