Answer:
Below in bold
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is:
3, x, y, 18
If this is an A P then
x - 3 = y - x
2x - y = 3 (A) and
y - x = 18 - y
2y - x = 18 (B)
Multiply (A) by 2:
4x - 2y = 6 (C)
Adding B and C:
3x = 24
x = 8.
and
2y - 8 = 18
2y = 26
y = 13.
So x = 8 and y = 13.
b) ar + ar^2 = 6ar^3 where a = first term and r = common ratio
Divide by a:
r + r^2 = 6r^3
6r^3 - r^2 - r = 0
r(6r^2 - r - 1) = 0
r(3r + 1)(2r - 1) = 0
So the 2 possible values of r
= -1/3 and 1/2.
i) The common ratio is positive so it must be 1/2.
Second term ar = 8
1/2 a = 8
a = 16.
So the first 6 terms are:
16, 8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2.
Answer:
8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cube: side length cubed
x^3=512
Taking the cubic root of both sides, we get
x=8
A is additive equality, where -x and x adds to 0
b is distributive, where x(y+z)=xy+xz
c is multiplicative equality, where x*1=x
d is subtracting both sides by 3.
Answer:
54° and 110°
Step-by-step explanation:
The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary, sum to 180°
(9)
19x - 26 + 7x - 2 = 180
26x - 28 = 180 ( add 28 to both sides )
26x = 208 ( divide both sides by 26 )
x = 8
Then
∠ EFG = 7x - 2 = 7(8) - 2 = 56 - 2 = 54°
(10)
21x - 33 + 14x + 3 = 180
35x - 30 = 180 ( add 30 to both sides )
35x = 210 ( divide both sides by 35 )
x = 6
Then
∠ YVW = 14x + 3 = 14(6) + 3 = 84 + 3 = 87°
The inscribed angle YVW is half the measure of its intercepted arc YW, so
arc YW = 2 × 87° = 174°, then
arc XW = 174° - 64° = 110°
Answer:
2:3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, create the ratio by putting the numbers together:
There are 4 red and 6 blue marbles:
4:6
Since both of these are divisible by 2, it can be simplified:
4:6
2:3
So, the ratio of red marbles to blue marbles is 2:3
