<h3>Solution</h3>
Common difference
<u>Difference of first two</u>
- d = (a -b) - (a + b) = -2b
<u>Difference of second two</u>
<u>Difference of last two</u>
<u>Now comparing d:</u>
- -2b = ab - (a - b)
- ab - a = - 3b
- a(1 - b) = 3b
- a = 3b/(1 - b)
and
- a/b - ab = -2b
- a(1/b - b) = -2b
- a = 2b²/(b² - 1)
<u>Eliminating a:</u>
- 2b²/(b² - 1) = 3b/(1 - b)
- 2b/(b+1) = -3
- 2b = -3b - 3
- 5b = - 3
- b = -3/5
<u>Finding a:</u>
- a = 3b/(1 - b) =
- 3*(-3/5) *1/(1 - (-3/5)) =
- -9/5*5/8 =
- -9/8
<u>So the first term is:</u>
- a + b = -3/5 - 9/8 = -24/40 - 45/40 = - 69/40
<u>Common difference:</u>
<u>The 6th term:</u>
- a₆ = a₁ + 5d =
- -69/40 + 5*6/5 =
- -69/40 + 240/40 =
- 171/40 = 4 11/40
Not sure if the question is complete, but if the cell doubles every five minutes, you must first double the one, then simply square the answer every five minutes.
Answer:
Percent of rise of a new truck on a used truck = 15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the percentage of saved money if Jason buying a used truck.
Given:
Price of the used truck = $34,000
Price of the new truck = $40,000
We need to find the percent of rise Jason saves on a used truck rather than buying a new truck
Solution:
Using a percentage formula.
Substitute Percentage cost = 34,000 and Original cost = 40,000 in above formula.
(
)
Using cross multiplication rule.
x = 15%
Therefore, Jason used 15% rise of a new truck for a used truck.
60v = $15
60v/60 = $15/60
v = 0.25
The original value of the baseball card is $0.25
D(x)=1375-110x
when it reaches 0 it has reached destination
0=1375-110x
add 110x to both sides
110x=1375
divide both sides by 110
x=12.5
answer is 12.5 hour
