Nine.
48 divided by 6 is 8, which means that each bead weighs 8 grams.
72 divided by 8 is nine.

Hey there!

To solve for the amount of beads that weigh 72 grams, you can set up this proportion where x represents the number of beads weighing 72 grams:
$\frac{6}{48}$ = $\frac{x}{72}$

Now, cross multiply and simplify:
6*72=48*x
432=48x

Finally, solve for x:
432=48x
x=9

Therefore, 9 beads will weigh 72 grams.

Hope this helps and I hope you have a marvelous day! :)

The first term of an arithmetic sequence is equal to four and the common difference is three. find the formula for the value of

hichkok12 [17]

The formula for the value of nth term is $a_{n}$ = 3n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the nth term in the arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}=a+(n-1)d$ , where

a is the first term of the sequence
d is the common difference between each two consecutive terms

∵ The first term of an arithmetic sequence is equal to four

∴ a = 4

∵ The common difference is equal to three

∴ d = 3

- Substitute these values in the rule of the nth term

∵ $a_{n}=a+(n-1)d$

∴ $a_{n}=4+(n-1)3$

- Simplify it

∴ $a_{n}=4+3n-3$

∴ $a_{n}=1+3n$

The formula for the value of nth term is $a_{n}$ = 3n + 1

SGA is doing a fundraiser to sell candles for project graduation. Small candles cost $4.00 and large candles cost $6.00. They ha

mafiozo [28]

Given:

Cost of small candles = $4.00

Cost of large candles = $6.00

They have at most 50 candles, and want to make at least $100.

To find:

The system of linear inequalities represents the situation.

Solution:

Let x be the number of small candles and y be the number of large candles.

At most 50 candles means total candles must be less than or equal to 50.

$x+y\leq 50$

Want to make at least $100. It means, the total sales must be greater than or equal to $100.

$4x+6y\geq 100$

Therefore, the inequalities in the system of linear inequalities are $x+y\leq 50$ and $4x+6y\geq 100$ .

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

(a) 7/15

(b) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) teaching:

(3 1/2) / (7 1/2) = (7/2) / (15/2) = 7/2 * 2/15 = 7/15

(b) marking:

(2 1/2) / (7 1/2) = (5/2) / (15/2) = 5/2 * 2/15 = 5/15 = 1/3
