This will leave you with

140 = 2(40) + 2x

60 = 2x

30= x

So the length is 30.

How many terms are there in a geometric series if the first term is 4, the common ration is 3 and the sum of the series is 160

Marina CMI [18]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite geometric sequence}
\\\\
S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
a_1=4\\
r=3\\
S_n=160
\end{cases}$

$\bf 160=4\left( \cfrac{1-3^n}{1-3} \right)\implies 160=4\left( \cfrac{1-3^n}{-2} \right)\implies 160=-2(1-3^n)
\\\\\\
160=2(3^n-1)\implies \cfrac{160}{2}=3^n-1\implies 80=3^n-1
\\\\\\
81=3^n~~
\begin{cases}
81=3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3\\
\qquad 3^4
\end{cases}\implies 3^4=3^n\implies 4=n$

A line passes through (-2,5) and has slope. What is an equation of the line in point-slope form?

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since the question does not have a given slope you can just put the point into the point slope formula y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-5 = m(x-(-2))

y-5 = m(x+2)

since the slope is not given, leave it like that

If the weight of a package is multiplied by 5/7 the result is 40.5 pounds. Find the weight of the package.

ololo11 [35]

Well, it would become 5/7x=40.5. Divide both sides by 5/7, so it is 40.5 * by the reciprocal of 5/7 (7/5). The answer is 56.7 pounds.
