Answer:
-84
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the nth term of a geometric progression is
Un = ar^n- 1
The sum of the first six terms of a geometric series (U6) = 21/16
Common ratio = -1/2 ,
a = First term ??
21/16 = a × (-1/2 )^6- 1
21/16 = a ×(-2^-1)^5
21/16 = a × -2^-6
Cross Multiply
16 × a × -2^-6 = 21
a = 21/16 × -2^-6
a = 21/16 ×- 1/2⁶
a = 21/16 × -1/64
a = 21 ÷(-1/4)
a = 21 × -4
a = -84
The first term = 84
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
easy
answer: D = 1
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable. 7 (2d - 1) + 5 (2 - 3d) = 2d
To find the answer, we can first find the distance each of them have, then divide it by their speed to find the time needed.
Distance Steve need to travel: 300 feet
Distance Paula need to travel:
300+175(behind steve) = 475 feet
Time needed respectively:
Steve: 300 ÷ 9 = 33.33.. seconds
Paula: 475 ÷ 15 = 31.66... seconds
As we can see from the result, Paula would take less time to reach the goal (31.66<33.33),
therefore, Paula win the bike race by:
33.33-31.67
=1.66...
≈1.67 feet
Thus Paula won by 1.67 feet.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
69 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2(length + width)
300 = 2(81 + width)
150 = 81 + width
width = 69
