Answer:

At the end of Week 20;

Seth has 58 balls

Matt has 20 balls

Seth has more balls

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows a progression

Week 1:

Matt has 1, Seth has 22

Week 5:

Matt has 5, Seth has 30:

Week 9:

Matt has 9, Seth has 38

For Matt, the progression shows that;

Matt bought (5 - 1) baseball's between week 1 and 5 and (9 - 5) between week 9 and 5

(5 - 1) balls = (9 - 5) balls

=> 4 balls = 4 balls

(9 - 5) weeks = (5-1) weeks

4 weeks = 4 weeks

4 weeks = 4 balls. --- divide by 4

1 weeks = 1 ball

This means that Matt buys a ball per week; Common difference = 1

For Matt, the progression shows that;

Matt bought (30 - 22) baseball's between week 1 and 5 and (38 - 30) between week 9 and 5

(30 - 22) balls = (38 - 30) balls

=> 8 balls = 8 balls

(9 - 5) weeks = (5-1) weeks

4 weeks = 4 weeks

4 weeks = 8 balls. --- divide by 4

1 seek = 2 ball

This means that Sett buys 2 balls ball per week --- Common difference = 2

Calculating their balls at week 20;

Using the following formula

Tn = a + (n-1)d.

Where a = first term

n = nth term

d = common difference

For Matt

a = 1

d = 1

n = 20

Tn = a + (n-1)d becomes

T20 = 1 + (20 - 1) * 1

T20 = 1 + 19 * 1

T20 = 20

For Seth

a = 22

d = 2

n = 20

Tn = a + (n-1)d becomes

T20 = 22 + (20 - 1) * 2

T20 = 22 + 19 * 2

T20 = 22 + 38

T20 = 58.

At the end of Week 20;

Seth has 58 balls

Matt has 20 balls

Seth has more balls

Answer:

Seth will have more cards in 20 weeks. The reason for this is because Seth gains 4 more cards a week while Matt only gains 2 More cards a week. So in 20 weeks Seth will have 80 Baseball cards while Matt has 40 Cards.

What is the completely simplified equivalent of 2/(5+i)?
Bezzdna [24]

namely, let's rationalize the denominator in the fraction, for which case we'll be using the <u>conjugate</u> of that denominator, so we'll multiply top and bottom by its <u>conjugate</u>.

so the denominator is 5 + i, simply enough, its conjugate is just 5 - i, recall that same/same = 1, thus (5-i)/(5-i) = 1, and any expression multiplied by 1 is just itself, so we're not really changing the fraction per se.

\bf \cfrac{2}{5+i}\cdot \cfrac{5-i}{5-i}\implies \cfrac{2(5-i)}{\stackrel{\textit{difference of squares}}{(5+i)(5-i)}}\implies \cfrac{2(5-i)}{\stackrel{\textit{recall }i^2=-1}{5^2-i^2}}\implies \cfrac{2(5-i)}{25-(-1)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{2(5-i)}{25+1}\implies \cfrac{2(5-i)}{26}\implies \cfrac{5-i}{13}

an ostrich egg weighs 2.9 pounds.The difference between the weight of this egg and the weight of an emu egg is 1.6 pounds.write
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

2.9-w=1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be weight of emu egg in pounds.

We have been given that an ostrich egg weighs 2.9 pounds.The difference between the weight of this egg and the weight of an emu egg is 1.6 pounds.

We can represent this information as:

2.9-w=1.6

Therefore, the equation 2.9-w=1.6 will give us the weight of the emu egg, w, in pounds.
