Let x be the value of the third term.
Since it's a geometric sequence, then:
Third term/Second term = Fourth term/Third term
x/20 = 11.25/x
Cross multiplication:
x^2 = 225
x = 15
So since the ratio is constant, then it is
x/20 = 15/20 = 3/4
So the common ratio is 3/4 or 0.75.

The length is 19.5 feet. this is because when you add the yards, it equals 15 feet. Next, add 1 + 2 feet from the first and second jump. 10+8 inches equal 1.5 feet. Next, add 15 feet+3 feet+1.5 feet to get 19.5 feet.

The tables represent two linear functions in a system.
tino4ka555 [31]

first function                                        2nd function

slope =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)                          slope =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

  =(14-2)/(3-0)                                        m = (-3--12/(3-0)

12/3                                                               m=(-3+12)/3

4                                                                   m =9/3 =3

y = 4x+2                                                    y = 3x+-12

set these two equations equal

4x+2 = 3x-12

subtract 3x

x+2 = -12

subtract 2 from each side

x = -14

y = 3x-12

y =3*(-14)-12

y = -42-12

y = -54

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite sides are congruent at parallelograms. So x+16 must be equal to 2x+5. Solve the equation;

2x+5 = x+16

x = 11 .
