What is the possible value for the missing term of the geometric sequence 43,__,2107,...

Short answer: 301

Long answer: The definition of a "Geometric Sequence" is available, for instance, at http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/sequences-sums-geometric.html : "<em>In a Geometric Sequence each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant."


</em>In this case, you are given the first term (43), and the third term (2107) and you have one missing term, specifically the second term. If you divide the third term (2107) by the first term (43) then you get 49. And you know that 49 = 7 * 7. So, you reach the conclusion that you can multiply the first term (43) by 7 to get to the missing term and that you can multiply that missing term again by 7 to get to the third term (2107). That satisfies our "Geometric Sequence" requirement that each term is multiplied by a constant (the constant is 7, in this case).

So, if you multiply 43 by 7, you get 301 (the missing second term). And if you multiplied 301 again by 7 then you would get to the third term that was given in the question (2107).

If f(x) = 1-x2 and g(x) = 1 - x which is the rule of function (f – g)(x)?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

-x^2 +x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 1-x^2

g(x) = 1 - x

f(x) - g(x) = 1-x^2  - (1 - x )

Distribute the minus sign

              = 1-x^2 -1 +x

Combine like terms

             = -x^2 +x

Simplify the expression.<br><br> can anyone explain to me how to do this? please
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The answer is the last one (32x^7y^15)

You can bring x to the second power (x^2) because (x) is basically x^1. This is a basic exponent rule. (x^m)^n = x^m times n.

Then you can apply this rule to (2xy^3)^5. First you bring two to the fifth power and get 32. Then you bring x^5 according to the rule. Then you bring y^15, also because of the rule.

Now you have:

x^2 times 32x^5y^15

Now you just multiply the like terms together (x^2 and x^5)

When you multiply two exponents with the same base, you add the exponents together: a^n times a^m = a^n+m.

So you end up with 32x^7y^15

Jack wants to simplify the expression below.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

5.3x - 4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

(6.7x -3) - (3.4x - 1) + (2x - 2)

1. using the commutative property:

= 6.7x - 3 +  2x - 2 - (3.4x - 1)      (we can remove the parentheses around the first 2 groups because they are added).

2. Using the distributive property on the last group:

= 6.7x - 3 + 2x - 2 - 3.4x + 1   (distributing the negative over the parentheses).

3. Now adding like terms we get:

5.3x - 4 (answer).

What is the product?(-2d^2+s)(5d^2-6s)
zimovet [89]
(-2d² + s)(5d² - 6s)

Simplify.

(-2d² × 5d²) + (-2d² × 6s) + (s × 5d²) + (s × -6s)

Simplify.

-10d² + (-12d²s) + (5d²s) + (-6s²)

Take out the parenthesis.

-10d² - 12d²s + 5d²s - 6s²

Combine like terms.

-10d² + (-12d²s + 5d²s) - 6s²

Simplify.

-10d² - 7d²s - 6s²

An airliner carries 350 passengers and has doors with ah height of 72 in. Heights of men are normally distributed with a mean of
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

P ( Z < 72 ) = 0.8577     or   P ( Z < 72 ) = 85.77 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

-A normal distribution

-Mean      μ =   69.0   in

-Standard deviation      σ  = 2.8   in

- Population    n  =  350

And doors height   72 in

If passengers will pass through the door without bending that means he must be under 72 in tall, therefore we are looking for the probability of men under 72 in, to find such probability we compute the value of Z according to

Z  =  ( X - μ ) / σ     ⇒             Z  =  ( 72 - 69 ) / 2.8

Z  = 1.07

Now with this value we look the Z tables, to find a value of: 0.8577

So the probability of select a men and that he can fit through the door is

P ( Z < 72 ) = 0.8577  or    P ( Z < 72 ) =  85.77 %
