Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first term is n, then the second term must be an where a is a common ratio, and the third term is a^2 n

so, n + an = 24

n + an + a^2 n = 26

solve for a, then solve for n

A tennis player keeps track of the number of successful first serves he makes. During the first 8 service points of a game, only
Andru [333]

Answer:

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

After n consecutive serves, his total number of serves is going to be n+8, since he has already served 8 times. In the best case, his number of successful first serves is n+2.

His percentage of succesful first serves is the division of the number of succesful first serves divided by the total number of serves. So

P = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

We want P = 0.60. So

0.6 = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

n+2 = 0.6*(n+8)

n + 2 = 0.6n + 4.8

n - 0.6n = 4.8 - 2

0.4n = 2.8

n = \frac{2.8}{0.4}

n = 7

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.
