Answer:
C 0 solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+47 = 8(x+5)
Distribute
8x+47 = 8x+40
Subtract 8x from each side
47 = 40
This is never true so there are no solutions
This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by
2
3

gives the next term. In other words,

Now, let's do the same as we did for the previous one here.
notice again, how did we get 84 for the 4th element's coefficient? well 36 * 7 / 3. and so on. And you can just expand it from there.
I'd suggest you write "6 2/5," not "6 and 2/5."
6 2/5 rotations
-------------------- =
2 2/3 seconds
32
---
5 32 3
------- = ------ * -----
8 5 8 Reduce that 32/8: obtain 4.

Then we have
4(3)/5, or 12/5 rotations per sec.
