3x=y
X+Y=20
5=x and 15=y are the answer. You can use elimination or substitution or guess and check!
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of n terms of a geometric series with first term a1 and common ratio r is given by ...
Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)
for r=5 and n=6, this becomes ...
15624 = a1·(5^6 -1)/(5 -1) = a1·(15624/4)
Then we have ...
1 = a1/4 . . . . . divide by 15624
4 = a1 . . . . . . multiply by 4
The first term of the series is 4.
2*1.4=2.8
1.5*1.4= 2.1
New figure: 2.8 by 2.1
