Answer: Brian ran 9 miles

Sonia ran 24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's Brian's distance be represented by x.

Since Sonia ran 6 miles more than twice as far as Brian. This will be:

= (2 × x) + 6

= 2x + 6

Therefore,

x + 2x+6 = 33

3x + 6 = 33

3x = 33 - 6.

3x = 27

x = 27/3

x = 9

Brian ran 9 miles

Sonia ran = 2x+6 = 2(9).+ 6 = 18+6 = 24 miles

The following dataset represents the math test scores for a class of 20 students. 90, 85, 95, 100, 100, 90, 100, 65, 100, 85, 80

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode is the measure of the central tendency for the given data set. The mode represents the highest frequency of the number

Since in the given data set as we can see that the 100 would be appeared 6 times

So this represent that the mode is 100

So here the mode would be the good measure

In a G.P the difference between the 1st and 5th term is 150, and the difference between the

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Either $\displaystyle \frac{-1522}{\sqrt{41}}$ (approximately $-238$ ) or $\displaystyle \frac{1522}{\sqrt{41}}$ (approximately $238$ .)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $a$ denote the first term of this geometric series, and let $r$ denote the common ratio of this geometric series.

The first five terms of this series would be:

$a$ ,
$a\cdot r$ ,
$a \cdot r^2$ ,
$a \cdot r^3$ ,
$a \cdot r^4$ .

First equation:

$a\, r^4 - a = 150$ .

Second equation:

$a\, r^3 - a\, r = 48$ .

Rewrite and simplify the first equation.

$\begin{aligned}& a\, r^4 - a \\ &= a\, \left(r^4 - 1\right)\\ &= a\, \left(r^2 - 1\right) \, \left(r^2 + 1\right) \end{aligned}$ .

Therefore, the first equation becomes:

$a\, \left(r^2 - 1\right) \, \left(r^2 + 1\right) = 150$ ..

Similarly, rewrite and simplify the second equation:

$\begin{aligned}&a\, r^3 - a\, r\\ &= a\, \left( r^3 - r\right) \\ &= a\, r\, \left(r^2 - 1\right) \end{aligned}$ .

Therefore, the second equation becomes:

$a\, r\, \left(r^2 - 1\right) = 48$ .

Take the quotient between these two equations:

$\begin{aligned}\frac{a\, \left(r^2 - 1\right) \, \left(r^2 + 1\right)}{a\cdot r\, \left(r^2 - 1\right)} = \frac{150}{48}\end{aligned}$ .

Simplify and solve for $r$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{r^2+ 1}{r} = \frac{25}{8}$ .

$8\, r^2 - 25\, r + 8 = 0$ .

Either $\displaystyle r = \frac{25 - 3\, \sqrt{41}}{16}$ or $\displaystyle r = \frac{25 + 3\, \sqrt{41}}{16}$ .

Assume that $\displaystyle r = \frac{25 - 3\, \sqrt{41}}{16}$ . Substitute back to either of the two original equations to show that $\displaystyle a = -\frac{497\, \sqrt{41}}{41} - 75$ .

Calculate the sum of the first five terms:

$\begin{aligned} &a + a\cdot r + a\cdot r^2 + a\cdot r^3 + a \cdot r^4\\ &= -\frac{1522\sqrt{41}}{41} \approx -238\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, assume that $\displaystyle r = \frac{25 + 3\, \sqrt{41}}{16}$ . Substitute back to either of the two original equations to show that $\displaystyle a = \frac{497\, \sqrt{41}}{41} - 75$ .

Calculate the sum of the first five terms:

$\begin{aligned} &a + a\cdot r + a\cdot r^2 + a\cdot r^3 + a \cdot r^4\\ &= \frac{1522\sqrt{41}}{41} \approx 238\end{aligned}$ .

22/100 in simplest form

lubasha [3.4K]

22/100:

You can actually divided the numerator and denominator by a number that can go into both 22 and 100 but also not get a remainder.

So 22/2= 11

And 100/2=50

Combined you get 11/50

Hope it helps!!!
