The first three terms of an arithmetic sequence are 2k+1, 5k, 7k+2. What is the value of k?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In an arithmetic sequence, we keep adding/subtracting to get the next term in the sequence.

Therefore, we can make an equation that looks like this:

5k-(2k+1) = 7k+2-5k

We can subtract 2k+1 from 5k, and 5k from 7k+2, because from subtracting the difference would be the same. (common difference of sequence is what we would find)

Now, we just need to simplify.

5k-2k-1 = 2k+2

3k-1=2k+2

Now let's combine like terms, and we get:

k=3

Hope this helped!

Nick has $7.00. Bagels cost $0.75 each, 12. and a small container of cream cheese costs $1.29. Write an inequality to find the n
Amiraneli [1.4K]
To answer this you would first start with a representation of the situation. See the attached step 1. Use this inequality to find the number of bagels he can get by solving it.

See step two in the attached picture for the work necessary to solve this.

The answer is not a whole number, so you have to round down to make it a whole number of bagels.

The answer is he could by seven or less bagels. You should substitute this in to prove it works.

Janice is studying the effect of pipe size on water flow rates. In
Leni [432]

Answer:

208.6 gal/min

Step-by-step explanation:

For 2" pipe,

Given Volume = 463.2 gal, time = 12 min

flow rate for 2" pipe

= Volume ÷ time

= 463.2÷12

= 38.6 gal/min

For 4" pipe,

Given Volume = 1730.4 gal, time = 7 min

flow rate for 4" pipe

= Volume ÷ time

= 1730.4÷7

= 247.2 gal/min

Difference in flow rate = 247.2 - 38.6 = 208.6 gal/min

Segment AB has point A located at (4, 2). If the distance from A to B is 3 units, which of the following is the coordinate for p
olganol [36]
The distance between two points is given by:
d² = (x₂-x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²
9 = (x₂ - 4)² + (y₂ - 2)²
Now, we can check different ordered pairs in this equation to see which satisfies it:
The one that satisfies this equation is (4 , -1).
