Answer:

$a_{63}$ = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic progression is

$a_{n}$ = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term and d the common difference

use the 9 th term and 7 th term to find a and d

$a_{9}$ = a + 8d = $\frac{1}{7}$ → (1)

$a_{7}$ = a + 6d = $\frac{1}{9}$ → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term

2d = $\frac{2}{63}$ ⇒ d = $\frac{1}{63}$

Substitute this value into (2) and solve for a

a + $\frac{6}{63}$ = $\frac{1}{9}$

a = $\frac{1}{9}$ - $\frac{6}{63}$ = $\frac{1}{63}$

Hence

$a_{63}$ = $\frac{1}{63}$ + $\frac{62}{63}$ = 1

\\\\\\
\textit{let's multiply the terms from f(x) by each term in g(x)}

x^{\frac{1}{2}}(5x^2-2x+x^{\frac{1}{5}})\implies x^{\frac{1}{2}}5x^2-x^{\frac{1}{2}}2x+x^{\frac{1}{2}}x^{\frac{1}{5}}$

$\bf 5x^{\frac{1}{2}+2}-2x^{\frac{1}{2}+1}+x^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{5}}\implies \boxed{5x^{\frac{5}{2}}-2x^{\frac{3}{2}}+x^{\frac{7}{10}}}
\\\\\\

\\\\\\
-25x^3+10x^2-5x^{1+\frac{1}{5}}\implies \boxed{-25x^3+10x^2-5x^{\frac{6}{5}}}$

$\bf 5\sqrt{x^5}-2\sqrt{x^3}+\sqrt[10]{x^7}-25x^3+10x^2-5\sqrt[5]{x^6}$

A chocolate shop sold 1 1/4 ounces of white chocolate. It sold 8 1/4 times as much milk chocolate as white chocolate. How many o

rjkz [21]

Answer:

10.3125 (NOT ROUNDED)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I changed it to decimals. 1/4 can easily be changed into a decimal.

2. I set 1/4 = x/100. Then cross multiplied. That would give you 4x = 100.

3. Now you would simplify that. x would be 25. So its 25/100 wich then turns to .25.

4. Now you are going to replace them so it would be 1.25 and 8.25.

5. To find out how much milk chocolate there was you would multiply 1.25 and 8.25.

6. That's your final answer

I need a better explanation how to find length and area of a triangle

fomenos

Answer:

Height(h) = 24in

Area = 204in²

Step-by-step explanation:

we would use the heron formula because we have all the sides to calulate the area

S = (A+B+C)/2 = (25 + 17 + 26)/2 = 68/2 = 34

area = √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) = √34(34-25)(34-17)(34-26) = √34(9)(17)(8) = √34x9x17x8 = √41616 = 204

area= (1/2)bh

204 = (1/2)bh b= 17, h =?

204 = (1/2)17h

204 x 2 = 17h

408 = 17h

h = 408/17 = 24in

Height(h) = 24in

Area = 204in²
