Louann= 14x+24
Carla= 16x+14
So basically this is just like solving equations. The way I did this was just put random numbers for x and then solve it.
First attempt:
14(7)+24=16(7)+14
98+24=112+14
122=126
Okay the first one didn't work so I use 6 for x.
Second attempt:
14(6)+24=16(6)+14
84+24=96+14
108=110
So 6 didn't work and you already should know that the answers should be between 1 and 5.
So now I going to do 5 for x
Third attempt:
14(5)+24=16(5)+14
70+24=80=14
94=94
And so the answer is 5! :D The multiply choice questions were worth 5 points and Louann and Carla had 94 for their scores! I hope this help you out and clear for you! :D
A geometric sequence is a sequence in which there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms. In this case if X:Y:Z are in the ratio of 2:7:8 the multiplying by a constant k, we have X=2k, Y= 7k and Z=8k.
Then if X, Y-12, Z form a Geometric sequence, it means X/Y-12=Y-12/Z which is the same as 2k/7k-12=7k-12/8k if we cross multply, we get
16k²= 49k²-168k +144
33k²-168k+144 =0 solving for k
k = 4 or 1.091 if we take the whole number to find the values of X,Y and z,
X= 8, Y= 28 and Z=32
<span>Números racionales son números que pueden ser wriiten como una proporción, y pueden ser escritos como una fracción también. Un ejemplo de un número racional sería dos cuartos (2/4), medio (1/2), etc.</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 9y = -11
3x + 9y = -3
5x + 9y = -11
-3x - 9y = 3
2x = -8
x = -4
-12 + 9y = -3
9y = 9
y = 1
(-4, 1)
Answer is C
