What is the next number in the sequence? 3, 6, 12, , ... place an x by the pattern of the sequence. add 2 subtract 2 times 2?

1 answer:

8 0

3,6,12...

this is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 2. That means u multiply each term by 2 to find the next term.

start with 3
3 * 2 = 6
6 * 2 = 12
12 * 2 = 24...this would be ur next term

so ur answer is : multiply by 2

A street light is at the top of a 25 ft pole. A 4 ft tall girl walks along a straight path away from the pole with a speed of 6

Burka [1]

Answer:

Tip of the shadow of the girl is moving with a rate of 7.14 feet per sec.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In the figure attached, Length of girl EC = 4 ft

Length of street light AB = 25 ft

Girl is moving away from the light with a speed = 6 ft per sec.

To Find : Rate ( $\frac{dw}{dt}$ ) of the tip (D) of the girl's shadow (BD) moving away from th

light.

Solution : Let the distance of the girl from the street light is = x feet

Length of the shadow CD is = y feet

Therefore, $\frac{dx}{dt}=6$ feet per sec. [Given]

In the figure attached, ΔAFE and ΔADE are similar.

By the property of similar triangles,

$\frac{x}{21}=\frac{x+y}{25}$

25x = 21(x + y)

25x = 21x + 21y

25x - 21x = 21y

4x = 21y

y = $\frac{4x}{21}$

Now we take the derivative on both the sides,

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{4}{21}\times \frac{dx}{dt}$

= $\frac{4}{21}\times 6$

= $\frac{8}{7}$

≈ 1.14 ft per sec.

Since w = x + y

Therefore, $\frac{dw}{dt}= \frac{dx}{dt}+\frac{dy}{dt}$

$\frac{dw}{dt}=6+1.14$

= 7.14 ft per sec.

Therefore, tip of the shadow of the girl is moving with a rate of 7.14 feet per sec.

What is 200x149 who can answer that for me i need help on this my teacher said i cant use couculater

ehidna [41]

Answer:

29,800

Step-by-step explanation:

that will be 149 x 2 which equals 298

149

×2 Multiply 9 × 2 = 18

------ Keep the 8 carry the 1 multiply 4 by 2 then add 1 finally multiply 2 by 1

298

Then add two zeros at the end since we're multiplying a number with two zeros. (This method only works for numbers that end with zeros)

Final answer: 29800
