Answer:

The numbers are 9, 19 and 76.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the second number and make it a variable, like x. Now let's find all the other numbers in terms of x.

The first number in terms of x:

x - 10

The second number in terms of x:

4x

If we add them all up, these 3 numbers in terms of x must be equal to 104, so:

x + (x - 10) + (4x) = 104 \\ x + x - 10 + 4x = 104 \\ 6x - 10 = 104 \\ 6x = 114 \\ x = 19

Now that we know the second number, we can find the other numbers since we already figured out their values in terms of x:

19 - 10 = 9

4 \times 19 = 76

The first number is 9, second number 19 and the third number 76.

A geometric sequence is defined by the equation an = (3)3 − n.
Delvig [45]
PART A

The geometric sequence is defined by the equation

a_{n}=3^{3-n}

To find the first three terms, we put n=1,2,3

When n=1,

a_{1}=3^{3-1}

a_{1}=3^{2}

a_{1}=9
When n=2,

a_{2}=3^{3-2}
a_{2}=3^{1}

a_{2}=3

When n=3

a_{3}=3^{3-3}

a_{3}=3^{0}
a_{1}=1
The first three terms are,

9,3,1

PART B

The common ratio can be found using any two consecutive terms.

The common ratio is given by,
r= \frac{a_{2}}{a_{1}}
r = \frac{3}{9}

r = \frac{1}{3}

PART C

To find
a_{11}

We substitute n=11 into the equation of the geometric sequence.

a_{11} = {3}^{3 - 11}

This implies that,

a_{11} = {3}^{ - 8}

a_{11} = \frac{1}{ {3}^{8} }

a_{11}=\frac{1}{6561}

Gavin is working to get his private pilot certificate he must fly minimum of 2020 hours with his plane instructor before he can
irinina [24]

Answer: He needs a minimum of 2011.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for Gavin to get his private pilot certificate he must fly solo.

He must fly a minimum of 2020 hours with his plane instructor before he can fly solo.

He has already flown 8 3/4 hours with his instructor. This is express as 8hours + (3/4 × 1) = 8.75 hours

To determine how many more flying hours that he needs before he can fly solo, we will subtract the number of hours that he had flown from the the minimum of 2020 hours . it becomes

2020 - 8.75 = 2011.25.

He needs a minimum of 2011.25 hours

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!! Calculate cos M if a= 4, b= 12.5, c= 13.1244 **Round your answer up to four decimal places.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

cosM ≈ 0.3048

Step-by-step explanation:

remember SOH CAH TOA = sine: opposite/hypotenuse; cosine: adjacent/hypotenuse; tangent: opposite/adjacent

cos = CAH

cosM= a / c

cosM = 4.0 / 13.1244

cosM = 0.30477

cosM ≈ 0.3048
