Is -2, -12, -60, -120 a geometric sequence?

Mathematics
1 answer:
nlexa [21]3 years ago
7 0

given,

1st term(a)= -2

2nd term (t2) =-12

3rd term (t3) =-60

4th term(t4)= -120

here common ratio (r)=t2/t1=t4/t3

or, -12/-2= -120/-60

or,6=2

hence,no -12, -60, -120 aren't in a geometric sequence because their common ratio aren't same.

Which equation represents the graph
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

y= 3|x|+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the graph for |x| is shown on the attached picture

Since the picture you show tell us that y=5 when x=0

we have something like the following y=a|x|+5, where 'a' is a constant that represents the slope of the line (whether is the line from one side of the 'y' axis or from the other), we can see that, when x=1, y=8, so we have another point

we can use the equation for slopes using points 1 (0,5) and 2 (1,8)

thus we have that a=\frac{8-5}{1-0}=3

So the answer is y= 3|x|+5

6x + 5y = 4<br> - 6x + y = 20
Masja [62]

Answer:

x = -8/3

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you want to solve for x and y.

The best way to do this with the two formulas given is elimination. This means add the two equations together.

6x + 5y = 4

-6x + y = 20

The 6 x and -6x will cancel each other. By adding the like terms of the two together you will come out with

6y = 24

Now solve for y by dividing both sides by the 6.

y = 24/6 = 4

Now that we have y, you can plug it into one of the equations and solve for x.

Let's use -6x + y =20.

So plug in the 4 for y to get -6x + 4 = 20

Subtract the 4 from both sides then solve for y by dividing both sides by the -6.

-6x = 16

x = -16/6

You can reduce that down so that x = -8/3.

40% of 125 is what number?
Hatshy [7]
The answer is 32


Solution for 40 is what percent of 125:

40:125*100 =

( 40*100):125 =

4000:125 = 32

Now we have: 40 is what percent of 125 = 32

Question: 40 is what percent of 125?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 125 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x​.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=125$100%=125​.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=40$x%=40​.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=125(1)$100%=125(1)​.

$x\%=40(2)$x%=40(2)​.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{125}{40}$
100%
x%​=
125
40​​

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{40}{125}$
x%
100%​=
40
125​​

$\Rightarrow x=32\%$⇒x=32%​

Therefore, $40$40​ is $32\%$32%​ of $125$125​.
