If the sum of first four terms in a G.P. is 30 and that of the last four terms is 960, then the sum of the first 8 terms is 990
We also know that a = 2
sum of first 4 terms
= 2(r^4 - 1)(r-1) = 30
r^4 - 1 = 15r - 15
r^4 - 15r + 14 = 0
r = 1 works for the equation , but r = 1 would make all the terms of the
GP the same, so clearly not a solution
r^4 - 15r + 14 = 0 , a bit of trial and error ....
(r-1)(r - 2)(r^2 + 3r + 7) = 0
so r = 2 or r = not real
check: sum(4) = 2(2^4 - 1)/(2-1) = 30 , as needed
so r = 2 , BUT it does not work for sum(8)
sum(8) = 2(2^8 - 1)(2-1) = 510 , not 990 as necessary according to your second part of the question.

the sum of two rational numbers is 17/18 If one of the numbers is 5/24 find the other number
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 17/18
x = 5/24
5/24 + y = 17/18
to bring both fractions to the same denominator (I see it is 72, but let's do it formally correct for you to learn), we look for the LCM, the lowest common multiple of both.
for this we split both numbers into their prime factors and then build the the combination of the longest chains per prime factor :
24 = 2×2×2×3
18 = 2×3×3
the LCM (and the new denominator) is then
2×2×2×3×3 = 8×9 = 72
so,
15/72 + y = 68/72
y = 53/72
53 is a prime number, so the fraction cannot be further refined.

Answer:
y = 3x + 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope = 6/2 = 3
y-intercept = 7.
Answer:
y = 3x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
y-intercept = 7 {where the line intersect at y-axis (0,7)}
Plot a point: (-1 ,4 )
Slope intercept form: y = mx + b
y = mx + 7
4 = m*(-1) + 7
4 = -m + 7
4 - 7 = -m
-m = -3
m = 3
y = 3x + 7
A rectangular field is four times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 410 yards, what are the field's dimensions?
The length of the rectangular field is 164 yards and the width is 41 yards
From the question,
We are to determine the fields dimensions
From the given information
A rectangular field is four times as long as it is wide
That is
l = 4w -------- (1)
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by
P = 2(l + w)
Where
P is the perimeter
l is the length
and w is the width
From the given information
The perimeter of the field is 410 yards
∴ 2(l + w) = 410 ------ (2)
Substitute equation (1) into equation (2)
2(4w + w) = 410
2(5w) = 410
10w = 410
∴ w = 410 ÷ 10
w = 41 yards
Substitute the value of w into equation (1)
l = 4(41)
l = 164 yards
Hence, the length of the rectangular field is 164 yards and the width is 41 yards.

Answer:
y= -4x-24
Step-by-step explanation:
change in y/change in x = 0- -24/-6-0 = 24/-6 = -4
gradient is -4
then you put a set of coradinates into the formular y-y=m(x-x)
y - 0= -4 (x+6)

8. The sum of two numbers is 52. Find the larger number if their ratio is 1: 3.
Answer:
39
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets solve for x:
We know the ratio is 1:3
1x+3x = 52
4x = 52
x = 13
Since the ratio is 1:3:
13(3) = 39

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through (-3, 2) and (6, - 1)
Answer:
y - 2 = -1/3 (x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation
Sorry!
Point-slope form )
Slope = (-1 -2)/(6 - (-3)
Slope = -3/9
Slope = -1/3
Using the point-slope formula and point (-3, 2)
y - 2 = -1/3(x - (-3)
y - 2 = -1/3 (x + 3) This is = to y = -1/3(x + 3) +2
What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -4)
and (-4, 0)?
Answer:
y=2x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We want to find the equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -4) and (-4, 0).
There are 3 ways to write the equation of the line:
Slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y interceptPoint-slope form, which is [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex], where m is the slope and [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] is a pointStandard form, which is ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients, but a and b cannot be equal to zero, and a cannot be negativeLet's write the equation in slope-intercept form, which is the most common way to do it.
We'll need to start by finding the slope of the line
The formula for the slope calculated from two points is [tex]\frac{y_2- y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] are points
Even though we are already given two points, let's label their values in order to avoid any confusion and mistakes for later:
[tex]x_1=-6\\y_1=-4\\x_2=-4\\y_2=0[/tex]
Substitute these equations into the formula to find the slope (m):
m=[tex]\frac{y_2- y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Substitute (remember: we have NEGATIVE numbers and SUBTRACTION, so we'll end up subtracting a negative):
m=[tex]\frac{0- -4}{-4--6}[/tex]
Simplify
m=[tex]\frac{0+4}{-4+6}[/tex]
Add the numbers together
m=[tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]
Divide
m=2
The slope of the line is 2
We can immediately plug it into the formula for slope-intercept form as m:
y=2x+b
Now we need to find b
As the equation passes through both (-6, -4) and (-4, 0), we can use either one of them to solve for b
Taking (-4, 0) for example:
Substitute -4 as x and 0 as y:
0=2(-4)+b
Multiply
0=-8+b
Add 8 to both sides
8=b
Substitute 8 as b into the equation
y=2x+8
Hope this helps!

3. A floor is 5 m long and 4 m wide. A square carpet of sides 3 m is laid on the floor. Find the area of the floor that is not carpeted.
Answer:
Length of floor = 5 m and breadth of floor = 4 m
Area of floor = length x breadth
= 5 m x 4 m = 20 m.sq
Now, Side of square carpet = 3 m
Area of square carpet = side x side = 3 x 3 = 9 m.sq
Area of floor that is not carpeted = 20 m – 9 m = 11 m.sq
Answer:
[tex]11 {m}^{2} [/tex]Step-by-step explanation:
First Condition:Given ,
Length of a floor = 5 m
Width of the floor = 4 m
Therefore,
Area of the floor
= l × b
= 5m × 4m
[tex] = 20 {m}^{2} [/tex]
Second Condition:Given,
Sides of a square carpet = 3 m
Therefore,
Area of the carpet
= s × s
= 3m × 3m
[tex] = {9m}^{2} [/tex]
At last:Now,
Area of the floor that is not carpeted is
= Area of the floor - Area of the carpet
[tex] = {20m}^{2} - {9m}^{2} [/tex]
[tex] = 11 {m}^{2} (ans)[/tex]

Which equation matches the graph shown?
Answer:
Vertex form: y = -2(x - 1)²
Standard form: y = -2x² + 4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the x-intercept as the vertex, (1, 0), and the y-intercept, (0, -2) as the two points on the graph of a parabola:
We can determine the equation by substituting these given values into the vertex form of the quadratic equation:
y = a(x - h)² + k
where:
a = determines the direction of where the graph opens, and the wideness or narrowness of the parabola.
(h, k) = vertex
Solve for the value of a:Use vertex: (1, 0) and y-intercept, (0, -2):
y = a(x - h)² + k
-2 = a(0 - 1)² + 0
-2 = a(-1)²
-2 = a(1)
-2 = a
Quadratic Equation:Vertex form:The quadratic equation in vertex form that matches the graph is:
y = -2(x - 1)² + 0 or y = -2(x - 1)² ⇒ This is the quadratic equation in vertex form.
Standard form:To transform the vertex form into the standard form, y = ax² + bx + c:
Simply expand the perfect square, (x - 1)², through FOIL method before distributing -2:
y = -2(x - 1)²
y = -2(x - 1)(x - 1)
y = -2(x² -2x + 1)
y = -2x² + 4x - 2 ⇒ This is the quadratic equation in standard form.
