The answer would be x=8

First, do distributive property. 3 • x and 3 • -4. Now you get 3x-12=12. Now add 12 to both sides. Now you have 3x=24. Now divide by 3 to get your x alone and you answer which is 8!

In a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following in a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.

nth term of a sequence = ar^n-1

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

r = a3/a2 = a4/a3

r = 16/2 = 128/16

r = 8

a2 = ar

2 = 8a

a = 2/8

a = 1/4

The nth term by substituting the parameters will be;

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Three people play a game on each spinner in the previos problem.
arlik [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

All other things being equal, spinner A is fine. It is a fair spinner.

Spinner B is not fair. Players 1 and 3 have only 1 number each. Player 2 on the other hand, has 2 numbers that work for him. If player 2 puts in two dollars and players 1 and 3 one dollar each, that should even up the odds. Now you want it just to be fair. So I think player 2 has to put up 2 dollars and players 1 and 3 each put up one. The pot is 4 dollars each time it is played.

Spinner 3 is not fair either. Player one has 2 chances. Player 2 has 3 chances and player 3 has but one chance. There are 6 chances in all. Player 1 should put up 2 dollars to play player 1 should put up 3 dollars and player 1 should put up 1 dollar.

Am I correct on number 3? If not whats the correct answer? And what is the answer for number 4? Will be marking brainliest!!​
timama [110]

Answer for number 4 is \frac{\bold2}{\bold3} hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum hour spent for all homework (English homework + math homework) is 2 hours.

Let us assume the hours spent for English homework be 'e'.

It is given that:

(Hours spent for math homework) = 2 × (Hours spent for English homework)

Hours spent for math homework = 2 × e = 2e

Total hours spent = (Hours spent for math homework) + (Hours spent for English homework)

Total hours spent = 2e + e = 3e

2 = 3e

3e = 2

∴ e = \frac{\bold2}{\bold3}

Therefore number of hours spent on English homework is equal to \frac{\bold2}{\bold3} hours.
