Answer:
<em>x = 1 and -2</em>
<em>Sum of the first ten terms = 1,398,100</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the geometric progression 2x+2, 16, 64x...
Since they are in GP, their common ratio is expressed as;
16/2x+2 = 64x/16
16/2(x+1) = 4x
8/x+1 = 4x
Cross multiply
4x(x+1) = 8
4x²+4x = 8
4x²+4x - 8 = 0
divide through by 4
x²+x - 2 = 0
Factorize
x²+2x-x- 2 = 0
x(x+2)-1(x+2) = 0
(x-1)(x+2) = 0
x = 1 and -2
Hence the values of x are 1 and -2
Get the common ratio;
r = 16/2x+2
Since x = 1
r = 16/2(1)+2
r = 16/4
r = 4
Sum of the first n terms is expressed as;
Sn = a(rⁿ-1)/r-1
a = 2x+2
a = 2(1)+2
a = 4
Substitute;
S10 = 4(4^10 - 1)/4 - 1
S10 = 4(1,048,576-1)/3
S10 = 4,194,300/3
S10 = 1,398,100
Hence the sum of the first ten terms is 1,398,100
The average rate of change of on the interval [a,b] is:
f(b)−f(a)/ b-a
or
y1-y2/x1-x2 which is how I learned it, average ratw of change is just slope
so you would plug your numbers into x
1st the b: 6((1))^2+31((1))-12
=6+31-12 1^2=1, so it cancels
f(b) =25
2nd the a: 6((-2))^2+31((-2))-12
=6(4)+31(-2)-12
=24+-62-12
f(a) =-50
3rd plug them in: (25- -50)÷(1-(-2)
=75÷3
=25
so your average rate of change(or slope) is 25 :)
You'll haft to do this one on your own it sounds like a project sorry!!!
Hi there, a quotient is the answer of a division problem. For example, 2÷2=1, 1 is the quotient. A remainder is a number that is left over in a division problem. For example, 7÷2=3 R1, R1 is remainder of 1.
Answer:
x= 5/2 + y/2
Step-by-step explanation:
So yeah... that's the answer
