Answer:

S_g=  33.333cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Arc of 30 cm

10% reduction after each swing

Generally sum of geometric sequence is given by the equation

    S_g=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}

Mathematically solving for total distance traveled we have

    S_g=\frac{30(1-(0.10^5)}{1-(0.10)}

    S_g=\frac{30}{0.9}

Therefore the total distance traveled  by the pendulum after 5 swings

    S_g=  33.333cm

Ed wants to buy a new video game system which costs $250. he has
BARSIC [14]

The required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

The number of lawns Ed must mow is assumed to be x.

The amount Ed charges for each lawn he mows is $9.

Thus, the total amount Ed earns by mowing x lawns = $9x.

The savings which Ed has is $135.

Thus, the total amount Ed will have to spend can be written as the expression, $(135 + 9x).

The cost of the video game is given to be $250.

We are asked to write an equation, that can be used to find the number of lawns Ed mow, that is x so that the amount Ed has will be more than the amount he needs to buy the video game.

This can be shown as the equation:

Total amount Ed has > Cost of the video game,

or, 135 + 9x > 250.

Thus, the required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

Pls just type it in no files pls and thank you
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

First type of clay required 3 cups of flour per batch

She made 5 batches

5 * 3 = 15

So she used 15 cups of flour for the first type of clay

Second kind of clay required 4 cups of flour per batches

She made 4 batches

4 * 4 = 16

So she used 16 cups of flour for the second type of clay

we now add the total number of cups of flour used for each type of clay

16 + 15 = 31

She used a total of 31 cups of flour

Hey there!

You would be able to rent the limo for 4 hours plus the booking fee.

75 x 4 = 300

300 + 50 = 350

350 = 350

Hope this helps you! :)

What is the volume of a cone with a radius of 2 and a height of 19?
kykrilka [37]

Remember that the cone volume formula is V=\pi r^2\frac{h}{3} , with r = radius and h = height. Using our information, we can form our equation as such: V=\pi 2^2\frac{19}{3} (I'll be keeping the answer in pi form.)

Firstly, solve the exponents:V=\pi 4\frac{19}{3}

Next, multiply 4 and 19/3 together and your answer should be (rounded to the hundreths): V = 25.33π un^3
