Answer:

4.5 and 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 numbers be x and y with x > y , then

x + y = 6 → (1)

x - y = 3 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate y, that is

2x + 0 = 9

2x = 9 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4.5

Substitute x = 4.5 into (1) for value of y

4.5 + y = 6 ( subtract 4.5 from both sides )

y = 1.5

The 2 numbers are 4.5 and 1.5

Find the ratio of the following geometric sequences
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

A: 2

B: -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A: We are looking for the common ratio between the terms of the sequence, which is essentially what you are multiplying by to get from one term to the next. To find this, we just have to divide the second term by the first term.

-4 / -2 = 2, therefore our common ratio is 2.

We can check this by continuing to multiply the next terms by 2 - -4 x 2 = -8, -8 x 2 = -16, so the pattern works.

B: For B, we will do exactly the same method as before:  3/-9 = -1/3, so our multiplier is -1/3.

To check: 3 x -1/3 = -1, and -1 x -1/3 = 1/3, which both follow our rule.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

Answer:

  x-intercept: -14/9

  y-intercept: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of the easiest forms for finding intercepts. To find the x-intercept, set y=0 and divide both sides by the coefficient of x.

  -9x = 14 . . . . . set y=0

  x = -14/9 . . . . divide by -9

__

To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and divide both sides by the coefficient of y.

  2y = 14 . . . . set x=0

  y = 7 . . . . . . divide by 2

The x-intercept is -14/9; the y-intercept is 7.
