Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a arithmetic sequence as:

A(n)=-6+(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{5})

We have to find the first, fourth and tenth term

First term:

n=1

A(1)=-6+(1-1)(\dfrac{1}{5})

A(1)= -6

Fourth term:

n=4

A(4)=-6+(4-1)(\dfrac{1}{5})

A(4)=-6+\dfrac{3}{5}

A(4)=-\dfrac{27}{5}

Tenth term:

n=10

A(10)=-6+(10-1)(\dfrac{1}{5})

A(10)=-6+\dfrac{9}{5}

A(10)=-\dfrac{21}{5}

the 2nd term in a geometric sequence is 20 the 4th term in the same sequence is 45/4 or 11.25 what is the common ratio?
lbvjy [14]
Let x be the common ratio and y be the 3rd term

11.25/x=y     This means the fourth term divided by the common ratio will get the third term
20x=y           This means the second term multiplied by the common ratio will get the third term

11.25/x=20x        Set the two y's equal to each other, and solve for x!
20x^2=11.25
x^2=.5625
x=+-√.5625
x=.75 or -.75

Use the table to write and solve an equation to find the number of
exis [7]

Answer:

c = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cars\ Sold:-: 8; 9; 12; c

Required

What value of c makes the mean = 10

Mean is calculated as

Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}

In this case;

Mean = 10 and n = 4;

So, we have:

10 = \frac{8+ 9 + 12 + c}{4}

10 = \frac{29+ c}{4}

Multiply both sides by 4

10 * 4 = 29 + c

40 = 29 + c

Solve for c

c = 40 - 29

c = 11

Solve for x<br> 3.24x + 8.37x -8.09=7.83<br> X= <br> Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
amm1812

3.24x + 8.37x -8.09=7.83

adding 3.24 x and 8.37x on the right side:

3.24x + 8.37x -8.09=7.83

11.61x -8.09=7.83

adding 8.09 to both sides:

11.61x =7.83+8.09

11.61x =7.83+8.09

11.61x =15.92

dividing both sides by 11.61

Answer : x=1.37

Work out the shaded area​
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

<h2> 70 {cm}^{2}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Shaded area:

Area of big rectangle - Area of small rectangle

= 10 \times 12 - (10 - 5) \times (12 - 2)

Calculate the difference

= 10  \times 12 - 5 \times 10

Calculate the product

= 120 - 50

Calculate the difference

= 70 \:  {cm}^{2}

Hope this helps...

Best regards!!
