How to solve for x?

Eliminate -(9/2) to find out the value of x.

<u>Add 9/2 to both sides of the equation:</u>

$x = - 7.5$

Answer

$x=$ $-7.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x -\frac{9}{2} = -12$

$x -\frac{9}{2} + \frac{9}{2} = -12 + \frac{9}{2}$ (add $\frac{9}{2}$ to both sides)

$x = -\frac{15}{2}$

$-\frac{15}{2} =$ $-7.5$

$x=$ $-7.5$

what is the sum of a 7-term geometric series if the first term is negative 11 the last turn is -45056 and the common ratio is -4

patriot [66]

For a geometric sequence with common ratio $r$ , we have

$a_n=a_{n-1}r$

that is, the $n$ -th term in the sequence is the product of the previous term and the common ratio $r$ . So

$a_n=a_{n-1}r=a_{n-2}r^2=\cdots=a_1r^{n-1}$

Then the sum of the first 7 terms is

$S_7=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^7a_n=a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_7$
$\implies S_7=a_1+a_1r+\cdots+a_1r^6$

Notice that

$S_7r=a_1r+a_1r^2+\cdots+a_1r^7$

so we can subtract this modified sum from $S_7$ to get

$S_7-S_7r=S_7(1-r)=a_1-a_1r^7\implies S_7=a_1\dfrac{1-r^7}{1-r}$

We're told that $a_1=-11$ and $r=-4$ , so the sum of the first 7 terms is

$S_7=(-11)\dfrac{1-(-4)^7}{1-(-4)}=144,188$

A cylindrical rain barrel has a radius of 2 feet and holds a total of 30 cubic feet of water. How tall is the rain barrel? Use 3

enot [183]

Answer:

2.39 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cylinder is equal to

$V=\pi r^{2}h$

where

r is the radius of the base of the cylinder

h is the height of the cylinder

we have

$V=30\ ft^3$

$r=2\ ft$

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$30=(3.14)(2^{2})h$

Solve for h

$30=(3.14)(4)h$

$h=30/12.56$

$h=2.39\ ft$
