Answer:

$2.40

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would do 22.70 minus 3.50, to get 19.20.

Then, you would divide 19.20 by 8, to get 2.4.

So, if each pineapple was the same price, each pineapple would be $2.40.

If an image is to be reflected in the line y = x and the x-axis, does the order of the reflections affect the final image? Expla

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Affects

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider point (2,-1).

1. Reflect it in the line y=x, then the image point will have coordinates (-1,2). Now reflect it in the x-axis, then the image point will have coordinates (-1,-2).

2. Reflect the point (2,-1) in the x-axis. Its image is point (2,1). Reflect this point in the line y=x, then its image will be point (1,2).

Since images in 1st case and 2nd case differ, the order affects the final image.

Find the value of x.

Tatiana [17]

Answer: The answer is x = 6 units.

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram

The diagram in the question shows two triangles placed on each other and for convenience sake has been labelled ABDCE. Triangle ABC is a right angled triangle, and so is triangle ADE. From the marks on the lines, we can infer that line AD is equal in measurement to line DB. Also line AE is equal in measurement to line EC.

Therefore we can see the similarity in both triangles, if AD and AE equals DB and EC, then it follows that DE equals BC.

Hence if AD = DB and

AE = EC, and

DE = BC

Then, x - 3 = ½x

(½x can also be expressed as x/2)

x - 3 = x/2

By cross multiplication we now have

2(x - 3) = x

2x - 6 = x

By collecting like terms we now have

2x - x = 6

x = 6

Find S8 for the geometric series 3 + -6 + 12 + -24 +…

kirill115 [55]

I guess you are asking to find the sum of the first 8 terms. If so, then:
Sum = a₁(1-rⁿ)/(1-r), where a₁ is the 1st term, r=common ratio and n=number of terms:
the 1st term a₁ =3
common ratio r = - 2 (since -6/3 = - 2, and 12/-6 = - 2, etc.)

Sum = 3[(1- (-2)⁸]/(1-2) = 3(1- 256)/(1/2)
Sum = -1530
