Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5           -160

----      =  ------

8x            1

Cross multiply

-1280x = -5

Divide both sides of the equation by -152

x = 256

I hope it helps :)

Give an example of each of the following, or argue that such a request is impossible.
Masteriza [31]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

(a) Let (bn) be a bounded sequence of (an) then, Bolzano- Weierstrass theorem,

(bn) contains a subsequence that is converges.

(b) The sequence :

Xn = 1 + (-1) n / 2 + 1/n

Clearly, (xn) does not contain 1 or 0.

If we take sequence (x2n), then it converges to 1 and when we take sequence (x2n+1),

Then it converges to 0.

(c) The sequence:

1

1,1/2

1, 1/2, 1/3

1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4

i.e

(xn) = (1,1/2, 1, 1/2, 1/3, …)

Then, the subsequence (xn) that is identically ½ in second column and 1/3 is third column and so on.

It has sub sequence that converges to every point in infinite set {1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5…}.

(d) The sequence

{1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5…}

if we take sequence of given set, then, this set converges to zero. This is not contained in it.

If (xn) converges to every point in set {1, 1/2, 1/3 …} then there exists subsequence which converges to 0. And 0 does not belong to given set.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!<br> solve for the given variable and show your work. 3a-12b=30. solve for b.
olganol [36]

Answer:

b=(-10-a)/4

First factor out the common number:3

Then divide both sides by 3

Then simplify 30/3 to 10

Then subtract a to get your answer

Solve the following quadratic by factoring.
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

4, -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can reverse the FOIL (First, outside, inside, last) method to break down the equation. The question is asking to solve by factoring so you want to find the right combination of numbers this equation can be broken down into:

x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0

Because we want x squared, x needs to be multiplied by itself, so we can put x in the first slot for each.

(x + or - ?) ( x + or - ?) = 0

Then we need to find numbers that could be added to get -3 and multiplied to get -4. The only set of numbers that works for this is -4 and 1. Note that the sign you put in front of each number has an impact on your answers. With this we get:

(x - 4) (x + 1) = 0

To test that this is equal to the original equation, simply multiply it out using FOIL.

x * x = x^2

x * 1 = x

x * -4 = -4x

-4 * 1 = -4

Putting each component into an equation:

x^2 + x - 4x - 4 = 0

Simplifying:

x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0

Once we are sure it is still the same equation, we find the solutions. We know 0 multiplied by anything equals 0, so to get 0 as the answer, one of the sets in the parentheses must equal 0. (It doesn't matter what the other one is as long is one equals 0)

Therefore, we have 2 solutions, 4, and -1 because if x is 4, 4-4 is 0 which solves the equation, and if x is -1, then -1 + 1 is 0 which also solves the equation.

You can also check your answers by plugging them back into the original equation.
