The answer is 12.
Steps
If that number is x
(3+x)/(8+x)=3/4
"Cross multply"
4(3+x)=3(8+x)
12+4x=24+3x
x=12
To check: add 12 to 3 and 8. 3+12=15 and 8+12=20. 15/20=3/4
9 longer sticks were used.
This is how i get it.
1. change m to cm, 1m =100cm
2. add both together, divide by 16 =8.125. Which means 1 of the stick should more than 8, and 1 of the other stick should be less than 8
3. substitute the equation
4.(55 x 7)+(75 x 9) =1060
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
and can be expressed in complex form, with = i
= = × = 8i
= = × = 4i
the factors can then be expressed as
(6 + 8i)(3 - 4i) ← expand using FOIL
= 18 - 24i + 24i - 32i² [ i² = ( )² = - 1 ]
= 18 - 24i + 24i + 32 ← collect like terms
= 18 + 32 + 0
= 50
Let a be the first term in the sequence, and d the common difference between consecutive terms. If aₙ denotes the n-th term in the sequence, then
a₁ = a
a₂ = a₁ + d = a + d
a₃ = a₂ + d = a + 2d
a₄ = a₃ + d = a + 3d
and so on, up to the n-th term
aₙ = a + (n - 1) d
The sum of the first 10 terms is 100, and so
where we use the well-known sum formulas,
The sum of the next 10 terms is 300, so
Solve for a and d. Eliminating a gives
(10a + 145d) - (10a + 45d) = 300 - 100
100d = 200
d = 2
and solving for a gives
10a + 145×2 = 300
10a = 10
a = 1
So, the given sequence is simply the sequence of positive odd integers,
{1, 3, 5, 7, 9, …}
given recursively by the relation
and explicitly by
for n ≥ 1.
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
the inequality sign opens up to the bigger number
