Mathematics
1 answer:
Lelechka [254]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

I think 12 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In ∆ QOP

R and S is the midpoint of OQ and PQ

and RS is parallel to OP

Therefore , By BPT

∆QRS is similar to ∆ QOP

let QS length be 1 unit

therefore , QP is 2 unit ( because QS is half of QP )

RS / OP = QS / QP

18-4x / -9+7x = 1 / 2

after cross multiplying

36-8x = -9+7x

36+9 = 7x+8x

45 = 15x

x=3

we have OP length = -9+7x

put the value of x in above equation

-9+7×3

-9+21

12

HELP ME PLEASEE
Nina [5.8K]

Answers:

x = -8/5 or x = 8/5

Sum of the first ten terms where all terms are positive = 4092

========================================================

Explanation:

r = common ratio

  • first term = 4
  • second term = (first term)*(common ratio) = 4r
  • third term = (second term)*(common ratio) = (4r)*r = 4r^2

The first three terms are: 4, 4r, 4r^2

We're given that the sequence is: 4, 5x, 16

Therefore, we have these two equations

  • 5x = 4r
  • 4r^2 = 16

Solve the second equation for r and you should find that r = -2 or r = 2 are the only possible solutions. If r = -2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = -8/5. If r = 2, then 5x = 4r solves to x = 8/5.

-----------------

To find the sum of the first n terms, we use this geometric series formula

Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)

We have

  • a = 4 = first term
  • r = 2, since we want all the terms to be positive
  • n = 10 = number of terms to sum up

So,

Sn = a*(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)

S10 = 4*(1 - 2^10)/(1 - 2)

S10 = 4*(1 - 1024)/(-1)

S10 = 4*(-1023)/(-1)

S10 = 4092

Roberto rowed 20 miles downstream in 2.5 hours. The trip back, however, took him 5 hours. Find the rate that Roberto rows in sti
almond37 [142]

Answer:

<em>Roberto's speed in still water is 6 miles/hour and the river speed is 2 miles/hour</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Relative Speed</u>

When a body is moving at a constant speed v, the distance traveled in a time t is:

d=v.t

When Roberto rows downstream, his speed in still water is added to the speed of the water, making it easier to travel the required distance.

When Roberto rows upstream, his speed in still water is affected by the speed of the water, both are subtracted and the required distance is covered in more time.

Let's call

x = Roberto's rowing speed in still water

y = Speed of the river current

The speed when rowing downstream is x+y, thus the distance traveled is

d=(x+y).t_1

Where t1=2.5 hours. Substituting values:

20=(x+y)*2.5

Rearranging, we find the downstream equation:

2.5x+2.5y=20\qquad[1]

The speed when rowing upstream is x-y, and the distance traveled is

d=(x-y).t_2

Where t2=5 hours. Substituting values:

20=(x-y)*5

Rearranging, we find the upstream equation:

5x-5y=20\qquad[2]

Multiplying [1] by 2:

5x+5y=40

Adding this equation to [2]:

10x=60

Solving:

x=60/10=6

Dividing [2] by 5:

x-y=4

Solving for y

y=x-4=6-4=2

Thus, Roberto's speed in still water is 6 miles/hour and the river speed is 2 miles/hour
