The first five terms of the geometric sequence is 6, 18, 54, 162 and 486

Geometric progression is given by:

nth\ term=ar^{n-1}

where a is the first term, r is the common ratio

Given that first term is 6, and common ratio is 3, Hence a = 6, r = 3

First\ term=6\\\\Second \ term=6(3)^{2-1}=18\\\\Third \ term=6(3)^{3-1}=54\\\\Fourth \ term=6(3)^{4-1}=162\\\\Fifth \ term=6(3)^{5-1}=486

The first five terms of the geometric sequence is 6, 18, 54, 162 and 486

8.45 At some point in the season, the Unicorns had won 60% of their basketball games. After that point, they won 8 more games an
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The total number of games won by Unicorn is 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • We are given with a word problem
  • We are asked to find the number of unicorns played during the season
  • We can do this in two steps

         Step 1: Finding the win percentage

         Step 2: Finding the number of unicorns played during the season

Step 1 of 2

Let the number of games played by unicorn be x.The unicorn won 60% of the first x-10 games That is $\frac{60}{100} \times(x-10)$

Combining the 8 games we get,

$$\begin{gathered}\frac{60}{100}(x-10)+8=\frac{60}{100} \times x-\frac{60}{100} \times 10+8 \\0.6 x-6+8=0.6 x+2\end{gathered}$$

Step 2 of 2

The unicorn totally won 65% of the games played.

That is $\frac{65}{100} \times x=0.65 x$

Equating both the equation gives

$$\begin{gathered}0.6 x+2=0.65 x \\2=0.65 x-0.6 x \\2=0.05 x \\\frac{2}{0.05}=x \\40=x\end{gathered}$$

1/6 + 3/8 <br> A. 4/6<br> B. 4/8 <br> C. 4/14<br> D. 13/24
Naddika [18.5K]

Here is you're answer:

In order to get you're answer you need to find the common denominator then add.

  • \frac{1}{6} + \frac{3}{8}
  • Find the common denominator:
  • CD = 48
  • = \frac{26}{48}
  • Simplify:
  • \frac{26}{48} \div 2 = \frac{13}{24}
  • = \frac{13}{24}

Therefore you're answer is option D "13/24."

Hope this helps!

Line a is purpendicular to line b. if the slope of line a is 7 than what is the slope of line b
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The slope of the perpendicular line b is -1/7 if the slope of the perpendicular line a is 7.

According to the question,

Line 'a' is perpendicular to the line 'b'. If the slope of the line 'a' is 7.

The condition of slopes if two lines are perpendicular m₁ m₂ = -1

(7)(m₂) = -1

   m₂ = -1/7

Hence, the slope of the perpendicular line b is -1/7 if the slope of the perpendicular line a is 7.

Cora makes a scarf with cloth rectangles and triangles. For every 5 pieces of cloth, 2 are rectangles. She needs 15 pieces of cl
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer: There are 6 pieces of cloth are rectangles and 9 pieces of cloth are triangles.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

For every 5 pieces of cloth, 2 are rectangles

So, remaining piece will be of triangle so,

5-2=3

3 are triangles.

Ratio of rectangles to triangles is 2:3.

Now, she needs 15 pieces of cloth to complete her scarf,

So, Number of rectangles is needed is given by

\frac{2}{5}\times 15\\\\=2\times 3\\\\=6

Number of triangles is needed is given by

\frac{3}{5}\times 15\\\\=3\times 3\\\\=9

Hence, there are 6 pieces of cloth are rectangles and 9 pieces of cloth are triangles.
