lbvjy [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Common difference is 3.

Let x be a term in the sequence. The next term in the sequence is x+3.

x(x+3) = 598

x² + 3x - 598 = 0

x = [-3 ± √(3²-4⋅1(-598))]/[2⋅1] = [-3 ± 49]/2 = 23, -26

-26 is an extraneous solution, so x = 23.

The two terms are 23 and 26.

The candle would burn for 18 hours.

45 / 15 = 3

If the candle is three times longer than normal, it will burn three times longer than normal.

3 x 6 = 18

The relationship between V, the value of his car, in dollars, and t, the elapsed time, in years, since he
Sergio [31]

Answer:

t = -24*log(2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is:

V = 22,500*10^(-t/12)

Replacing with V = 10,000 and isolating t, we get:

10,000 = 22,500*10^(-t/12)

10,000/22,500 = 10^(-t/12)

4/9 = 10^(-t/12)

(2/3)² = 10^(-t/12)

2*log(2/3) = -t/12

-12*2*log(2/3) = t

t = -24*log(2/3)

Which property can be used to expand the expression -2(3/4*+7)?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

C. The distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property of binary activities is generalized in mathematics by the distributive law of Boolean algebra and elementary algebra. Distribution applies, in propositional logic, to two clear substitution laws. The rules allow one to reformulate, within logical facts, conjunctions and disjunctions.

USPshnik [31]

Answer:  $122.50

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In          Out

8:00    12:00    = 4 hours

12:45    17:30   =<u> 4.75 hours   </u>

          Total        8.75 hours

8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50

Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:

 17:30       →         16:90

- 12:45                -<u> 12:45 </u>

                            4: 45

4 hours 45 minutes = 4\frac{3}{4} = 4.75 hours
