Answer: 96 / 4 ^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence with a first term of 96. The common ratio is the division of the 2nd term by the first term. This will be:

24/96 = 1/4

a = 96

r = 1/4

The formula will be:

ar ^n-1

= 96 × (1/4)^n-1

The concluding part is explained in the attached file.

Elimination_4x_2y=14<br> _10x+7y=_24
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The answer is x=-\frac{50}{8}  and y=\frac{11}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-4x-2y=14

-10x+7y=-24

Now, to solve it by elimination:

-4x-2y=14   ......(1)

-10x+7y=-24 ......(2)

So, we multiply the equation (1) by 7 we get:

-28x-14y=98

And, we multiply the equation (2) by 2 we get:

-20x+14y=-48

Now, adding both the new equations:

-28x-14y+(-20x+14y)=98+(-48)

-28x-14y-20x+14y=98-48

-28x-20x-14y+14y=50

-8x=50

<em>Dividing both the sides by -8 we get:</em>

x=-\frac{50}{8}

Now, putting the value of x in equation (1):

-4x-2y=14

-4(-\frac{50}{8})-2y=14

\frac{200}{8} -2y=14

25-2y=14

<em>Subtracting both sides by 25 we get:</em>

-2y=-11

<em>Dividing both sides by -2 we get:</em>

y=\frac{11}{2}

Therefore, the answer is x=-\frac{50}{8}  and y=\frac{11}{2}.

Theresa Morgan a chemist has a 10% hydrochloric acid solution and a 65% hydrochloric acid solution. How many liters of each shou
prisoha [69]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

170 liters of 10% hydrochloric acid must be mixed with 1700 liters of 65% hydrochloric acid solution to obtain 1870 liters of 60% solution.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

First, set up a table. Fill in the unknowns with variables x and y. The table is attached below

From this, we can easily set up the two equations.  

Sum of values of two acids = Value of mixture  

0.1x + 0.65y = 1122  

For convenience, we'll multiply the entire equation by 100,

10x + 65y = 112200   ------ (1)  

Now, Sum of amounts of each acid = Amount of mixture  

x + y = 1870  ---------(2)

multiply (2) with 10 for easy calculation and derive the equation into one variable.

10x + 10y = 18700  

Subtracting equation (2) from (1),  

( + ) 10x + 65y = 112200

( − ) 10x + 10y = 18700

we get the solution as,

0 + 55y = 93500

Thus, 55y = 93500

y = 1700

Substituting y = 1700 in (2),

x + 1700 = 1870  

x  = 1870 - 1700  

x  = 170  

So, we have x = 170 and y = 1700

We can conclude that 170 liters of 10% hydrochloric acid must be mixed with 1700 liters of 65% hydrochloric acid solution  to obtain 1870 liters of 60% solution.

A circle is divided into 6 equal parts. What is the angle measure of 1 part?
drek231 [11]
The angle measure of one part will be 60.

360/6 = 60 

That is because the circle it divided into 6 equal parts and the whole circle is 360.

Hope this helps :)

What are natural numbers in a set less than 3
sergeinik [125]
Natural number are basically " counting numbers ". They have no decimals, no fractions, and no negative numbers. It is debated whether 0 is included.

so ur natural numbers less then 3 are {1,2 }...not 100% sure if u include 0. I do not think u do.
