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

Answers

Answer 1
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
Answer 2

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

what is the solution (x,y) to the system of equations? x=10 3x+5y=20​

Answers

Answer:

(10, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 10 (its given in the problem)

then plug in 10 for x in the second equation and solve for y

3(10) + 5y = 20

30 + 5y = 20

5y = -10

If three pounds of apples cost $5.25, how much will 10 pounds cost?

show work!!!!

please help

Answers

Answer:

10 pounds will cost $17.50

Step-by-step explanation:

(5.25 / 3) * 10 = x

1.75 * 10 = x

17.50 = x

Answer:

10 pounds of apples will cost $17.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the unit rate.

$5.25/3 = $1.75

Now we need to multiply $1.75 by 10 pounds.

$1.75 × 10 = $17.50

Mindy bought 1¾ pounds of candy for herself and for each of three friends while she was at the candy store. How many pounds of candy did she buy?

Answers

Answer:

Mindy bought 7 pounds of candy.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this question we need to understand that based on the question itself there is 4 people (Mindy and the three friends) that each have [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] pound of candy. Now if you image in that way you see that in order to understand how much pounds of candy Mindy bought you will have to multiply [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] by 4 (because there is 4 people who got [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex]  pounds of candy each).

So now we can find the answer by doing the following.....

[tex](1\frac{3}{4} )(4) = ( \frac{7}{4})(\frac{4}{1}) = \frac{(7)(4)}{(4)(1)} = \frac{28}{4} = 7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A) y ≥ 350x + 17,000

Step-by-step explanation:

If 17,000 is the original, you won't multiply or divide it by x. But since it goes up by at least 350 each year you will multiply by x.

So to set it up, you will have 350x + 17,000, and since it's at least, you will have a great than or equal to sign (≥)

y ≥ 350x + 17,000

In the first 8 overs the bowling rate of a cricketer is 4.5, In the last two over by giving how much run the bowling rate will be 5? ​

Answers

Answer:

In the last two overs, the bowler gave 14 runs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bowling rate of 4.5 in the first 8 over means he gave 32.5 runs.

i.e.

Score given in first 8 overs = 4.5 × 8 = 36

Given that the bowling economy 5 at the end of 10 overs means the bowler must have given 10 × 5 = 50 score in the total 10 overs.

so, subtract 36 from 50 to get the score he will be giving in the last two overs.

i.e. score given the last two overs = 50 - 36 = 14

Therefore, in the last two overs, the bowler gave 14 runs.

use the function y=3/2x+3 to complete the table of values

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

Putting all the values of y=9, 6, 0, and -3 to complete the table

FOR y=9

putting y=9

switch sides

subtract 3 from both sides

Hence,

when y=9, x=4

FOR y=6

putting y=6

switch sides

subtract 3 from both sides

Hence,

when y=6, x=2

FOR y=0

putting y=0

switch sides

subtract 3 from both sides

Hence,

when y=0, x=-2

FOR y=-3

putting y=-3

switch sides

subtract 3 from both sides

Hence,

when y=-3, x=-4

Hence, the table becomes:

x                     y

Pls help. question is in the picture above

Answers

Answer:

15 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Because angle BFD and angle DFC are supplementary (they form a 180 degree angle, as you can see from the fact that they both form a straight line) and angle BFD is 90 degrees, angle DFC must also be 90 degrees. Since it is 90 degrees, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for DF as a part of triangle DFC=> 8^2(x^2)=17^2.

=>64(x^2)=289

subtract 64 from both sides=> x^2=225

take the square root of both sides=> x=15

Since triangles BED and BFD are equal by way of angle-side-angle, we know that all of their corresponding sides and angles are equal, and therefore, DF=DE, so DE=15 meters

Given an inequality, what strategies can we use to determine where the boundary line is? Explain your strategies in detail.

4x+3y≥12

Answers

Answer:

The strategy is to find the x and y intercept of the given equation

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+3y≥12

In order to determine where the boundary line, we need to first get the x and y-intercept of the inequality expression given;

x-intercept occurs at where y = 0

when y  = 0

4x + 3(0)≥12

4x ≥12

x ≥12/4

x≥ 3

Also y intercept occurs at where x = 0

4x+3y≥12

4(0)+ 3y ≥12

3y≥12

y≥12/3

y≥4

Hence the intercept of the line is at (3, 4). A thick line will pass through this point and the upper part of the graph will be shaded. The strategy is to find the x and y intercept of the given equation

Answer:

[tex]y = 50x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start off by trying to find the slope/gradient (commonly denoted as [tex]m[/tex]) of this function

[tex]m = \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}[/tex]

This means we divide the change in y over the change in x

Let's pick, for example, x = 3 (who's corresponding y is 150) and x = 4 (who's corresponding y is 200)

[tex]m = \frac{200 - 150}{4 - 3}\\\\m = 50[/tex]

Now we have this:

[tex]y = 50x+b[/tex]

Let's plug in a random value of x and y from this function in order to find b. I'll pick x = 2:

[tex]100 = 50\cdot 2 + b\\100 = 100 + b\\b = 0[/tex]

Since b is 0, we don't have to write it on our equation, meaning that our final equation is just

[tex]y = 50x[/tex]

To verify this, let's say we didn't know the value of y when x is equal to 4 and all we had was that equation:

[tex]y = 50\cdot 4\\y = 200[/tex]

Just like it is on the graph :)
