The ratio of length to width is 3/2.  Let's set up equations of ratios using first the 25 cm length of the paper and then the 20 cm width:

 3      25 cm
--- = ----------
 2           x

Solving for x, 3x = 50 cm, and x =16 2/3 cm.  This is possible, since 16 2/3 is less than the paper width 20 cm.

 3       20 cm
--- = -----------
 2         x

Solving for x:  3x = 40 cm; x = 40/3 cm, or  x= 13 1/3 cm.  This is possible, but does not make maximum use of the 20 by 30 cm paper.

Answer:  the largest flag Jake can draw on the paper given is 20 cm (length) by 16 2/3 cm.

Find S18 for geometric series given a5=-6 and a2= -48
Ganezh [65]

an = a1r^(n-1)

a5 = a1 r^(5-1)

-6 =a1 r^4


a2 = a1 r^(2-1)

-48 = a1 r


divide

-6 =a1 r^4

----------------    yields   1/8 = r^3      take the cube root  or each side

-48 = a1 r                     1/2 = r


an = a1r^(n-1)

an = a1 (1/2)^ (n-1)

-48 = a1 (1/2) ^1

divide by 1/2

-96 = a1


an = -96 (1/2)^ (n-1)


the sum

Sn = a1[(r^n - 1/(r - 1)]

S18 = -96 [( (1/2) ^17 -1/ (1/2 -1)]

       =-96 [ (1/2) ^ 17 -1 /-1/2]

      = 192 * [-131071/131072]

 approximately -192

Please help STRUGGLING with math few math questions! Ty
-BARSIC- [3]

Question 1:


F(x) and g(x) are like variables, just plug into the equation.


f(x) + g(x) = (x + 6) + (12x - 7)


x+6+12x-7 = 13x-1


Question 2: f(3) + g(-1)


You plug in the x-values into the equation, and then take the answer and add them together.


f(3) = 3+4

g(-1) = 12(-1)-6


f(3) = 7

g(-1) = -18


7 + (-18) = -11


Question 3:


This is similar to question 1, plug in the variables and simplify.


9x - (7x+3)


Remember to distribute the "-"


9x - 7x - 3

2x - 3
