Answer:

  • 8

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given GP</h3>
  • a₂ = 4,
  • a₆ = 16
<h3>To find</h3>
  • a₄ = ?
<h3>Solution</h3>
  • a₂ = ar = 4
  • a₆= ar⁵ = 16

<u>Substitute ar in the second equation</u>

  • ar⁵= 16
  • 4r⁴ = 16
  • r⁴ = 4
  • r = √2

<u>Then finding a₄</u>

  • a₄ = a₂*r² = 4*(√2)² = 4*2= 8

Find the difference (20m+3)-(7m-5)
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Simplifying

(20m + 3) + -1(7m + -5) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(3 + 20m) + -1(7m + -5) = 0

Remove parenthesis around (3 + 20m)

3 + 20m + -1(7m + -5) = 0

Reorder the terms:

3 + 20m + -1(-5 + 7m) = 0

3 + 20m + (-5 * -1 + 7m * -1) = 0

3 + 20m + (5 + -7m) = 0

Reorder the terms:

3 + 5 + 20m + -7m = 0

Combine like terms: 3 + 5 = 8

8 + 20m + -7m = 0

Combine like terms: 20m + -7m = 13m

8 + 13m = 0

Solving

8 + 13m = 0

Solving for variable 'm'.

Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + 13m = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + 13m = 0 + -8

13m = 0 + -8

Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8

13m = -8

Divide each side by '13'.

m = -0.6153846154

Simplifying

m = -0.6153846154Step-by-step explanation:
