Since it is a geometric sequence each term will be a specific multiple of the term preceding it, called the common ratio...
126/42=378/126=1134/378=3
The sequence is a(n)=a(3)^(n-1) and we know the second term is 42 so:
42=a(3)^(2-1)
42=3a
a=14
So the first term is 14.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
Touchdown is 7 points, field goals is 3 points
Let's note a the number of touchdowns and b the number of field goals, we can write
(1) a + b = 80
(2) 7a + 3b = 516
(2) - 3*(1) gives
7a + 3b - 3(a + b) = 516 - 3*80
<=> 7a + 3b -3a - 3b = 516 - 240 = 276
<=> 4a = 276
<=>
And then from (1) b = 80 - 69 = 11
Hope this helps
Answer:
B, D
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary Angles: Add up to 180 degrees
Angle abe and Angle Ebc add up to 180 degrees
Angle ABD and Angle DBC add up to 180 degrees
Since the interior is 170 the exteriro must be 10 degrees. There is a total of 360 degrees so 360/10=36 or 36 sides.
