Answer:

q/p = 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(p+2q)/p = 7/5

Multiply each side by p

(p+2q)/p *p = 7/5*p

(p+2q) = 7p/5

Multiply each side by 5

(p+2q)*5 = 7p/5 *5

5p + 10q = 7p

Subtract 5p from each side

5p + 10q -5p = 7p -5p

10 q = 2p

divide each side by p

10q/p = 2p/p

10 q/p = 2

Divide each side by 10

q/p = 2/10

q/p = 1/5

<h3>Answer: 1/5</h3>

Work Shown:

(p+2q)/p = 7/5

(p/p)+(2q/p) = 7/5

1 + 2(q/p) = 7/5

2(q/p) = 7/5 - 1

2(q/p) = 7/5 - 5/5

2(q/p) = (7-5)/5

2(q/p) = 2/5

q/p = (2/5)*(1/2)

q/p = (2*1)/(5*2)

q/p = 1/5

The figure shown is a kite. What is the x-coordinate of point P?

tresset_1 [31]

The answer to the above question can be determined as -

Let the point on the left side of P be Q, thus coordinates of Q are (a,1) and point on the right side of P be R, thus coordinates of R will be, (a+4, 1).

Now, it given that, between x coordinates of Q and R is 4, and it can be seen that they are getting divided into half.

So, the x coordinate of P will be - a + $\frac{4}{2}$ i.e. a + 2

<u>Thus, the x coordinate of P will be a +2.</u>

Robert accepted a new job at a company with a contract guaranteeing annual raises. Let S represent Robert's salary after working

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

74,000

Step-by-step explanation:

In the year where he got 104,000 the year before he got 6,000 less. The year before 98,000 he got 12,000 less which means that now it would just be 86,000-12,000=74,000

I think this is right but you can double check on a calculator

Hope this helped!

What is the explicit rule for this sequence?<br> -5, 15, – 45, 135, ...

hoa [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

an = a1r^(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

n represents the number of terms.

From the given sequence,

a1 = - 5

r = 15/- 5 = - 3

Therefore, the explicit rule for this sequence is

an = - 5(- 3)^n - 1
