|x＋8|=5
then x+8= 5 or -5
then x= -3 or -13
Answer: the first term of the series is 128
Step-by-step explanation:
In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the sum of n terms, Sn of a geometric sequence is expressed as
Sn = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
Where
n represents the number of term in the sequence.
a represents the first term in the sequence.
r represents the common ratio.
From the information given,
r = 1/4 = 0.25
n = 4
S4 = 170
Therefore, the expression for the sum of the 4 terms, S4 is
170 = a(1 - 0.25^4)/(1 - 0.25)
170 = a(1 - 0.00390625)/(1 - 0.25)
170 = a(0.99609375)/(0.75)
170 = 1.328125a
a = 170/1.328125
a = 128
A. F(x)= 3x+6 =12
3x = 12-6
3x = 6
x=2
B. x=10, f(x)= 3*10+6 = 30+6 = 36
C. f(x) = 3x+6 = 6
3x = 6-6
3x=0
x=0
D. x=5, f(x) = 3x+6 = 3*5+6 = 15+6 = 21
If you would like to find the quotient of 2 1/4 and 5/8, you can calculate this using the following steps:
2 1/4 = 9/4
2 1/4 / 5/8 = 9/4 / 5/8 = 9/4 * 8/5 = 18/5 = 3 3/5
The correct result would be 3 3/5.
Answer:
i) 28 - 30i
ii) 36 + 28i
Step-by-step explanation:
i) x = 6 + i ⇒2x = 2(6 + i) = 12 + 2i
z = 4 - 8i ⇒ 4z = 4(4 - 8i) = 16 - 32i
2x + 4z = (12 + 2i) + (16 - 32i) = 28 - 30i
ii) w = -1 + 5i and z = 4 - 8i
w × z = (-1 + 5i)(4 - 8i) = -4 + 8i + 20i - 40
⇒collect like terms
w × z = -4 + 28i - 40
∵ 
∴w × z = -4 + 28i - 40(-1) = -4 + 28i + 40 = 36 + 28i
