Answer:

3,069

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is doubling, so terms 1 through 10 are:

3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 96, 192, 384, 768, 1,536

3 + 6 + 12 + 24 + 48 + 96 + 192 + 384 + 768 + 1,536 = 3,069

marishachu [46]

The average speed is the distance divided by the time.

Total distance:
12.8 miles + 17.2 miles = 30 miles

Total time:
noon - 9:00 a.m. = 3 hours
6:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m. = 5 hours
Total time = 3 hours + 5 hours = 8 hours

average speed = 30 miles / 8 hours = 3.75 miles per hour

FACTOR EACH EXPRESSION, IF IT CANT BE FACTORED WRITE CANNOT BE FACTORED. 1. 4x+12

dimaraw [331]

1.) 4(x+3)
Find the GCF, Greatest Common Factor, of 4x and 12.
4x=2*2*x
12=3*2*2
The greatest common factor is 4. Put this outside of the parentheses. (You would multiply the 2*2)
Then, put the rest of the factors as a sum. (Only the factors on the same line.)
Solution: 4(x+3)

To check, distribute to see if it works.

4x+12

2.) 2(4r+7)
Find the GCF of 8r and 14
8r=2*2*2*r
14= -1*7*2
The greatest common factor is 2. (There is only 1 two, so you would not multiply them.)
Then, put the rest of the factors as a sum. (Only the factors on the same line.)
Multiply the 2*2*r as one addend and the -1*7 as the other.
Solution: 2(4r-7)

To check, distribute to see if it works.

8r-14

Do you get it now?

3.) 5(x+7)
4.) 7(2x+1)
5.) Cannot be factored.

32x-15
Find the GCF of 32x and -15

32x: 2*2*2*2*2*x
-15: -1*5*3

Because there are no similar factors other than 1, it cannot be factored.

6.) 8(4x+3)
7.) 3(2x-3)
8.) 24(1x+2)
9.) 9(-2x+8)
10.) Cannot be factored
11.) 8(1x+3)
12.) 50(1x+5)

A group of students were given a spelling test the table shows their mark Mark: 6,7,8,9,10 frequency:5,4,7,10,4 a) work out the

____ [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given,

Mark: 6,7,8,9,10

frequency:5,4,7,10,4

a) Range = highest mark - lowest mark

Range = 10 - 6 = 4

b) The number of students in the group is the sum of the frequency. Therefore,

Number of students = 5 + 4 + 7 + 10 + 4 = 30 students

c) Mean mark = (mark × frequency)/total frequency

[(6 × 5) + (7 × 4) + (8 × 7) + (9 × 10) + 10 × 4)]/ 30

Mean mark = (30 + 28 + 56 + 90 + 40)/30 = 244/30

Mean mark = 8.1

Double Points! (i have no clue how to do this)<br> Find the value of the variables in the figure.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

x=12 and y=31

Step-by-step explanation:

First, ( 5x - 7 ) and ( 3x + 17 ) are alternate interior angles, which means they are congruent, or equal:

5x - 7 = 3x + 17

Add 7 to each side:

5x = 3x + 24

Subtract 3x from both sides:

2x = 24

Divide each side by 2:

x = 12

Now we can see that ( 5x - 7 ) and ( 4y + 3 ) are supplementary angles, which means they will add up to 180 degrees:

5x - 7 + 4y + 3 = 180

Substitute 12 in for x to solve for y:

5 ( 12 ) - 7 + 4y + 3 = 180

60 - 7 + 4y + 3 = 180

combine like terms:

( 60 + ( -7 ) + 3 ) + 4y = 180

56 + 4y = 180

Subtract 56 from each side:

4y = 124

Divide each side by 4:

y = 31
