54, 36, 24 are the 1st 3 element of a geometric progression with 2/3 as a common ratio: PROOF:
the 1st term is 54, (a₁= 54) the 2nd term a₂ = 24, then
(a₂ = a₁.r) or 36 = 54.r → r= 36/54 = 2/3. Same logique for the 3rd term.
So 2/3 is common ratio. We know that :U(n) = a.(r)ⁿ⁻¹. Then if a =54 and r = x (given by the problem), then f(x) = 54.xⁿ⁻¹
n, being the rank of any element of this geometric progression
The total number of plants are: 12 tomatoes + 5 cucumbers = 17 plants
The ratio of cucumbers plants to total plants is: 5 cucumbers to 17 plants total
So It can be expressed as: 5/17 or 5:17
Answer: the second and the third one are right
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find an equivalent expression for this by combining like terms.
The terms are 88, 16x, and 8.
The like terms are 88 and 8.
To combine them, add them together.
88 + 8 = 96
The equivalent expression would be 16x + 96.
This means 16x + 96 is the same as <span>88 + 16x + 8.
Since they are equivalent, that means they are equal, or the same.
So no matter what x is, they will both be equal to the same thing, so their solutions will be the same.
Answers:
Equivalent Expression: 16x + 96
Yes, both expressions will have the same solutions if x = 4.

Kim's age is twice of that of her sister. We'll let k2 = Kim and k = Kim's sister.
So, k2. When you add Kim's age to her sister age you get 36.
Because Kim is twice the age of her sister k2. And because it said 'add' then we put a + sign. k2 + s = 36. Now let's solve it.
k2 + k = 36 < Given
3k = 36 < Combine like terms
k = 12 < Divide both sides by 3
We know Kim's sister is 12 y/o but what about Kim herself? Earlier we assigned Kim to k2. Substitute 12 for k and you get 12(2) = 24
Kim's sister is 12 y/o and Kim is 24 y/o
