Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For a sequence to be "arithmetic," there must be a common difference from one term to the next.  6,7,9,10,12...  does not live up to this criterion:

from 6 to 7 is 1

from 7 to 9 is 2

from 9 to 10 is 1

from 10 to 12 is 2

If the sequence were 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, the sequence would be "arithmetic," with a common difference of 1.

Answer:

It is not an arithmetic sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an arithmetic sequence, the differences between any two consecutive terms are equal.

7 - 6 = 1

9 - 7 = 2

The differences between two different sets of consecutive terms are different, so it is not an arithmetic sequence.

A population of insects increases at a rate of 1.5% per day. About how long will it take the population to double?
never [62]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

46.6 days

Explanation:

The general form for exponential growth is

A=p(1+r)^t, where A is the total amount, p is the initial amount, r is the percent of growth, and t is the amount of time (in this case, days).

We do not know the initial amount, the total amount, or the amount of time.  We do know that r, the percent of growth, is 1.5%; 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015:

A=p(1+0.015)^t

We also know we want the total amount, A, to be twice that of the initial amount, p:

2p = p(1+0.015)^t&#10;\\&#10;2p=p(1.015)^t

Divide both sides by p:

\frac{2p}{p}=\frac{p(1.015)^t}{p}&#10;\\&#10;\\ 2=1.015^t

Using logarithms to solve this,

\log_{1.015}(2)=t&#10;\\&#10;\\46.6=t

Solve equation 13=x/7+5
yuradex [85]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable (x). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 5 from both sides:

13 (-5) = (x/7) + 5 (-5)

13 - 5 = x/7

8 = x/7

Isolate the variable x. Multiply 7 to both sides:

8(7) = (x/7)(7)

8(7) = x

x = 8 * 7

x = 56

56 is your answer for x.

A newspaper carrier has $5.40 in change. He has six more quarters than dimes but five times as many nickles as quarters. How man
BigorU [14]
X= number of dimes
x+6= number of quarters
5(x+6)= number of nickels
$5.40= 540 cents

Add the number of each coin and set it equal to the total in cents.


x + (x + 6) + 5(x + 6)= $5.40
multiply 5 by parentheses; change dollar total to cents

x + (x + 6) + (5 * x) + (5 * 6)= 540

x + (x + 6) + 5x + 30= 540
combine like terms

7x + 36= 540
subtract 36 from both sides

7x= 504
divide both sides by 7

x= 72 dimes

x + 6= 78 quarters

5(x + 6)= 390 nickels


CHECK
72 + 78 + 390= 540
540= 540


ANSWER: There are 72 dimes, 78 quarters and 390 nickels.

Hope this helps! :)
