2x+y=9 (*2) __ 4x+2y=18 name it 1.  8x-2y=6 name it 2. Now add both equations, 1 & 2. 4x+2y+8x+-2y=18+6. 2y will be cancelled out. You'll be left with 12x=24, x=2. Then replace the value of x which is 2 in either equation 1 or 2. I'll go with 1 equation 4(2)+2y=18  2y=18-8=10 y=5. Using the equation 2 should provide the same result of y.

What is the next fraction in each of the following patterns?1/40,4/40,9/40,16/40,25/40...?
tresset_1 [31]
Let
a1=1/40
a2=4/40
a3=9/40
a4=16/40
a5=25/40
a6=?

we know that
a2-a1=4/40-1/40----> 3/40
a3-a2=9/40-4/40-----> 5/40
a4-a3=16/40-9/40----> 7/40
a5-a4=25/40-16/40---> 9/40

the difference is
3/40,5/40,7/40.9/40,....
3/40+[2/40]---> 5/40
5/40+[2/40]---> 7/40
7/40+[2/40]---> 9/40

the next will be
9/40+[2/40]-----> 11/40
so
the next term is 25/40+[11/40]------> 36/40

the answer is
36/40

Let a₁ , a₂ , a₃ , a₄ ,... .be a given sequence.
The common ratio of this sequence is the following:
 a₂/a₁ = a₃/a₂ = a₄/a₃ = r

Example: 5, 25, 125, 625, ...The common ration  is:
 25/5 = 125/25 = 625/125 = 5. So r=5 is the common ratio

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

12.58 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ron wants to build a 14 ft. ramp with an angle of the rise of 26° and the height of the ramp is about 6.1 ft.

We have to find out the length of the base of the ramp.

Now, the ramp forms a right triangle with the base and the height and here, the hypotenuse of the triangle is the ramp itself i.e. 14 ft.

If the base length is x feet, then we can write using the trigonometry

\cos 26^{\circ} =  \frac{\textrm{Base}}{\textrm {Hypotenuse}} = \frac{x}{14}

⇒ x = 14 cos 26° = 12.58 feet. (Answer)
