Find the fifth term in the geometric
sequence, given the first term and
the common ratio.
a1 = 2 and r = 3
a5 = [ ?]

Answers

We can solve this in 2 ways
Since a1 = 4
a2 = 4 * (3) = 12 i.e( a1* common ratio)
a3 = 12 * (3) = 36 i.e( a2 * common ratio)
a4 = 36 * (3) = 108 i.e( a3* common ratio)
a5 = 108 * (3) = 324 i.e(a4*common ratio)

and so on

The fifth term is 162 in the geometric sequence.

What is geometric sequence?

The geometric sequence defined as a series represents the sum of the terms in a finite or infinite geometric sequence. The successive terms in this series share a common ratio.

The nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

Where a is the first term, r is the common ratio

What is arithmetic sequence?

A arithmetic sequence is defined as an arrangement of numbers which is particular order.

The formula to find the general term of an arithmetic sequence is,

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

Given data :

First term of sequence geometric (a₁) = 2

The common ratio of geometric (r) = 3

To determine the fifth term of geometric sequence

Let the fifth term of sequence = a₅    

The nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as :

Tₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹

Substitute the values of n = 5, a₁ =2 and r = 3 in the formula,

T₅  = (2)(3)⁵⁻¹  

T₅  = (2)(3)⁴

T₅  = (2)(81)

T₅  = 162

Hence, the fifth term is 162 in the geometric sequence

Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars and making $22 per hour tutoring. In a given week, he can work no more than 16 total hours and must earn no less than $220. If x represents the number of hours washing cars and y represents the number of hours tutoring, write and solve a system of inequalities graphically and determine one possible solution.

Answers

Answer:

9x + 22y ≥ 220

x + y ≤ 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First x is number of hours washing cars and y is number of hours tutoring.

He makes $9 per hour on cars, $22 per hour tutoring. So we use variables as substitutes for actual values.

That is 9x + 22y. He can't make less than 220, so use the sign greater or equal to 220.

He also must work no more than 16 hours. Total hours is x+y, and no more than 16 means use the sign less than or equal to.

The number of hours washing cars and number of hours tutoring, if Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars, making $22 per hour tutoring, are 10.2 and 5.85 respectively. The graph is also attached below.

What is equation?

A mathematical statement that has an "equal to" symbol between two expressions with equal values is called an equation. As in, 3x + 5 Equals 15, instances.

Given:

Blake is working two summer jobs, making $9 per hour washing cars, making $22 per hour tutoring,

Total working hour = 16

Total money to be earned = $220

Write the equation of the above statement as shown below,

x + y = 16

9x + 22y  = 220

Solve the above equation using a graph,

y = 5.85 and x = 16 - 5.85 = 10.2

Susan can swim 105 meters in 70 seconds. At this rate, how far can she swim in 30 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

45 meters per 30 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure this question out you first gave to find the unit rate of meters per second by dividing 105 by 70.

105 divided by 70 = 1.5

So Susan can swim 1.5 meters per second.

Then we multiply that amount by 30 to find the number of meters she can swim in 30 seconds.

1.5 x 30 = 45 meters

So, in conclusion, Susan can swim 45 meters per 30 seconds

The graph of a linear relationship passes
through (0, 2), (1,5), and (3, 11) but not
through (2, 7). Which of the following is
the equation for this linear relationship?
A y= 2x + 3 Cy=5x
B y = 3x + 2
Dy= 4x - 1

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the linear relationship is y = 3x + 2B

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question substitute the x in the equation by the x-coordinate of each point to find y, if y equals the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the graph of the equation

A.

∵ y = 2x + 3

→ Use the first point (0, 2)

∵ x = 0

→ Substitute x by 0 in the equation

∴ y = 2(0) + 3

∴ y = 0 + 3 = 3

∵ The y-coordinate is 2

The point (0, 2) does not lie on the graph of the relationship

∴ The equation y = 2x + 3 doesn't represent the equation of the relationship

B.

y = 3x + 2

→ Use the first point (0, 2)

∵ x = 0

→ Substitute x by 0 in the equation

∴ y = 3(0) + 2

∴ y = 0 + 2 = 2

∵ The y-coordinate is 2

The point (0, 2) lies on the graph of the relationship

→ Use the second point (1, 5)

∵ x = 1

→ Substitute x by 1 in the equation

∴ y = 3(1) + 2

∴ y = 3 + 2 = 5

∵ The y-coordinate is 5

The point (1, 5) lies on the graph of the relationship

→ Use the third point (3, 11)

∵ x = 3

→ Substitute x by 3 in the equation

∴ y = 3(3) + 2

∴ y = 9 + 2 = 11

∵ The y-coordinate is 11

The point (3, 11) lies on the graph of the relationship

→ Use the fourth point (2, 7)

∵ x = 2

→ Substitute x by 2 in the equation

∴ y = 3(2) + 2

∴ y = 6 + 2 = 8

∵ The y-coordinate is 7

The point (2, 7) doesn't lie on the graph of the relationship

The equation of the linear relationship is y = 3x + 2

y = -6x - 39

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will have the same slope so m= -6, but it will have different points.

So we have y= -6x + b and the points are (8,9)

Substitute that in

9 = -6*-8 + b

9 = 48 + b

subtract 48 on both sides

9-48 = 48 - 48 + b

-39 = b

obtuse triangle: 1 obtuse angle, 2 acute angles

scalene triangle: no congruent sides

isosceles triangle: 2 congruent sides

equilateral triangle: 3 congruent sides

The question is:

"What type of triangle has no congruent sides and one angle that has a measure greater than 90° but less than 180°?"

That means scalene and obtuse.

Answer: D.) obtuse scalene triangle

The triangle is an obtuse scalene triangle, the correct option is D.

What is a Triangle?

A triangle is a polygon with three sides, angles and vertices.

The triangle is classified into various types on the basis of the angle and on the basis of the equality of the length of the sides,

When the measure of all the angles of a triangle is less than 90 degree, it is an acute angle triangle.

When the measure of one of the angle of a triangle is equal to 90 degree, it is a right angled triangle.

When the measure of one of the angle of a triangle is greater than 90 degree, it is called an obtuse angle triangle.

When the measure of all side is different, it is a scalene triangle.

When the two side of a triangle is equal, it is an isosceles triangle.

When all the sides of a triangle is equal, it is an equilateral triangle.

The condition given in the question is triangle has no congruent sides and one angle that has a measure greater than 90° but less than 180°, it is an obtuse scalene triangle.

Answers

Given:

The factory managers decide to to give away [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] of [tex]\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex]  of a ton away as samples.

To find:

what fraction of a ton did they give away?

Solution:

According to the question, the factory managers decide to to give away [tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex] of [tex]\dfrac{1}{9}[/tex] of a ton away as samples. So,

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{3}\left(\dfrac{1}{9}(1\text{ ton})\right)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{1}{9}\times (1\text{ ton})[/tex]

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{27}\times (1\text{ ton})[/tex]

[tex]\text{Samples}=\dfrac{1}{27}(1\text{ ton})[/tex]

So, samples is [tex]\dfrac{1}{27}[/tex] of a ton.

Therefore, they give away [tex]\dfrac{1}{27}[/tex] of a ton as samples.
