URGENT ! what is the common difference of the arithmetic series 14+12+10+8

Mathematics

Explanation:

An arithmetic sequence has a common difference, meaning you use addition or subtraction to get from term to term, and each term in the sequence is an equal distance apart.

A geometric sequence has a common ratio, meaning that you use multiplication or division to get from term to term.

If you look at this sequence:

14-2 = 12

12-2 = 10

10-2 = 8

8 -2 = 4

etc.

Because you are subtracting 2 each time, 2 is the common difference, and the sequence is arithmetic.

Bananas are being sold for $0.59 a pound at Store A and $0.55 a pound at Store B. A customer wants to buy 10 pounds of bananas.

andre [41]

Answer:

The customer saves 5.9 - 5.5 = $0.5

when he shops at store B

Step-by-step explanation:

Stores A and B sells bananas at different prices per pound.

Bananas are being sold for $0.59 a pound at Store A and $0.55 a pound at Store B.

If a customer wants to buy 10 pounds of bananas from store A and store B,

The customer would spend 0.59 × 10 pounds of bananas = $5.9

buying from store A and

The customer would spend 0.55 × 10 pounds of bananas = $5.5

buying from store B.

The customer spends more for 10 pounds of bananas if he buys from shop A.

The customer saves 5.9 - 5.5 = $0.5

when he shops at store B

Use the Factor Theorem to determine if x – 2 is a factor of g(x) = 2³ − 5x²+x+2

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

(x -2) is a factor

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor theorem tells you that (x-2) is a factor of g(x) if g(2) = 0.

g(2) = 2·2³ -5·2² +2 +2 = 16 -20 +2 +2 = 0

Since g(2) = 0, (x -2) is a factor of g(x).

The graph shows us the complete factorization is ...

g(x) = (2x +1)(x -1)(x -2)

An object travels along a horizontal straight path at a constant rate the object travels 1/20 of the length of the path in 3/4 s

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply assume that total length to be covered be 'L'.

Now , $\frac{1}{20}$ of total length L is covered in time $\frac{3}{4}seconds$ .

We know distance traveled =speed×time

Let Object's velocity be V

Using this

$\frac{L}{20}=V×time$

$\frac{L}{20}=V*\frac{3}{4}$

Thus, velocity in terms of total length is

$V=\frac{L}{15}$

Now,

To cover total length L time needed is

$time =\frac{distance}{speed}$

$time=\frac{L}{\frac{L}{15} }$

Time taken =15 seconds

A. Identify the error. *

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The answer is C. 8x-2

This is because the total no. Of jars is 8 x no. Of boxes = 8x

2 jars are removed

So what is left over is y = 8x - 2

Hope this helps!
