So we need to find the sum of the first 5 terms.
You have told me that the first term is 10 meters, and that r = 0.5 per term.
With this knowledge, we can use the formula s_n=a₁((1-r^n)/(1-r)).
Plugging in the terms that we know...
s₅=10((1-0.5⁵)/(1-0.5))
s₅=10(0.96875/0.5)
s₅=10(1.9375)
s₅=19.375
With s₅, we can determine that the ball has traveled a total of 19.375 meters after 5 bounces.
answer
10
step-by-step explanation
the equation given is sin(x) = cos(y) with x = 2k + 3 and y = 6k + 7
substitute in 2k+ 3 for x in sin(x) and substitute in 6k + 7 for y in cos(y)
sin(x) = cos(y)
sin(2k + 3) = cos(6k + 7)
we know that sin(x) = cos(90 -x)
sin(2k + 3)
= cos(90 - (2k + 3) )
= cos(90 - 2k - 3)
= cos(87 - 2k)
substitute this into the equation sin(2k + 3) = cos(6k + 7)
sin(2k + 3) = cos(6k + 7)
cos(87 - 2k) = cos(6k + 7)
87 - 2k = 6k +7
80 = 8k
k = 10
Answer: 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of 8th graders that signed up = 30
9 dropped out. So the total number 8th graders on board the game
= 30 - 9 = 21
46 2/3 % of the club are 8th graders i.e 21
Let T be the total number of students in the club
46 2/3 % T = 21
(140/3)% T = 21
(140/300)T = 21
T = (21x300)/140 = 45
Therefore, there are 45 students on the club
