Answer:

(x/5)+40=7x/10

(x+200)/5=7x/10

Cross multiply

10x+2000=35x

10x-35x=-2000

-25x=-2000

x=2000/25

x=80 pages

Therefore pages left= 3/10 of pages

=3*80/10=24 pages

ther u is good person

Answer:

Let total pages be x

ATQ,

(x/5)+40=7x/10

(x+200)/5=7x/10

Cross multiply

10x+2000=35x

10x-35x=-2000

-25x=-2000

x=2000/25

x=80 pages

Therefore pages left= 3/10 of pages

=3*80/10=24 pages

Is 1/3, 2/3, 4/3, 8/3, 16/3 arithmetic sequence

11111nata11111 [884]

The given sequence is not arithmetic sequence

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given sequence is:

$\frac{1}{3} , \frac{2}{3} , \frac{4}{3} , \frac{8}{3} , \frac{16}{3}$

We have to find if the above sequence is arithmetic sequence or not

An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant

<em><u>Here in the given sequence</u></em>

$\text{ first term } = a_1 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\\text{ second term } = a_2 = \frac{2}{3}\\\\\text{ third term } = a_3 = \frac{4}{3}\\\\\text{ fourth term } = a_4 = \frac{8}{3}\\\\\text{ fifth term } = a_5 = \frac{16}{3}$

<em><u>Let us find the difference between terms</u></em>

$a_2 - a_1 = \frac{2}{3} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{3}$

$a_3 - a_2 = \frac{4}{3} - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{3}$

$a_4 - a_3 = \frac{8}{3} - \frac{4}{3} = \frac{4}{3}$

$a_5 - a_4 = \frac{16}{3} - \frac{8}{3} = \frac{8}{3}$

Thus the difference between terms is not constant

So the given sequence is not arithmetic sequence

Let p represent any number in the interval (- 18,22). Rewrite the possible values for p in inequality notation.

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$-18 < p < 22$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question.

The open interval: (- 18,22).

Let p belong to the given interval then p represents all the values belonging to the given interval.

Open Interval: An open interval is a interval that does not include the end points.

Thus, we can write:

$-18 < p < 22$

is the required inequality form required.

That is p can take values greater than -18 and smaller than 22.
