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.

son4ous [18]

\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\ V=\pi r^2 h~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\ \cline{1-1} r=9\\ h=7 \end{cases}\implies V=\pi (9)^2(7) \\\\\\ V=\pi (81)(7)\implies V=567\pi \implies V\approx 1781.28\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{V=1781}

Collin wants to solve this system of equations. Which number can he multiply the first equation by so that when the two equation
siniylev [52]
If u multiply the first equation by -4, u get -2x - y = -20

and when u add the 2 equations..
-2x - y = -20
2x + 3/8y = 5
-----------------
0 - 5/8y = -15.....u notice that the x terms r eliminated.

A box contains 4 bags of flour. The total mass of all 4 bags is 6kg. What is the mass of each bag in grams?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

1500 g

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mass of each bag, we divide 6 kg by 4.

(6 kg)/4 = 1.5 kg

Now we convert 1.5 kg to g.

1 kg = 1000 g

1.5 kg * (1000 g)/(1 kg) = 1500 g

Determine whether the graphs of the two equations are perpendicular x-7y=4 and 21x+3y=11
Sveta_85 [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

when multiplied together, the gradients of the 2 graphs should equal -1 (of they are perpendicular).

x-7y=4

-7y= -x + 4

y= -1/7 x + 4/7

21x+ 3y=11

3y=-21x+11

y=-21/3 x + 11/3

-21/3 * -1/7 = 1

when multipled together, the 2 gradients dont equal -1 therefore they are not perpendicular

unless I've made a mistake with the signs at some point haha
