Answer:
Joseph is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
I cannot see the options in the drop-down menus. Even though, Joseph is correct because the difference between the longest length (which is 12 ft) and shortest length (which is 9 1/2 ft) is 12 - 9 1/2 = 2 1/2 ft. It doesn't matter how many ropes measure those lengths.
Step-by-step explanation:
the introduction of a fraction tells us that we are dealing with multiplications, and therefore a geometric sequence (where every new term is created by multiplying the previous term by a constant factor, the ratio r).
I think your teacher made a mistake, or you made one when typing the question in here.
there is no factor r that creates
15×r = 9
and
9×r = 5/27
it would mean that
15 × r² = 5/27
r² = 5/27 / 15 = 5/27 × 1/15 = 5/405 = 1/81
r = 1/9
but 15 × 1/9 = 5 × 1/3 = 5/3 is NOT 9
and 9 × 1/9 = 9/9 = 1 is NOT 5/27
so, this can't be right.
on the other hand
15 × r = 9
r = 9/15 = 3/5
and then
9 × 3/5 = 27/5
so, either the sequence should have been
15, 5/3, 5/27
or (and I suspect this to be true)
15, 9, 27/5
under that assumption we have
s1 = 15
r = 3/5
sn = sn-1 × r = s1 × r^(n-1) = 15 × (3/5)^(n-1)
s10 = 15 × (3/5)⁹ = 15 × 19683/1953125 =
= 3 × 19683/390625 = 59049/390625 =
= 0.15116544 ≈ 0.151
Just do 8 divided by two and then add 25 to that and you get that answer which is $29
Answer:33/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Log10(x+3)-Log10(x-3)=1
Log10((x+3)/(x-3))=1
(x+3)/(x-3)=10^1
(x+3)/(x-3)=10
Cross multiply
x+3=10(x-3)
Open brackets
x+3=10x-30
Collect like terms
10x-x=30+3
9x=33
Divide both sides by 9
9x/9=33/9
x=33/9
