The common ratio of the given Geometric progression is one-half.

Let a be first term and r common ratio of the Geometric progression.

The Geometric sequence is the form a,ar,ar^2, ...

Given that the sequence begins with 12, i.e a = 12

and also given that the sequence are in Geometric Progression.

By dividing the preceeding number by 2, we get the successive number

Then the Geometric sequence is 12, 12×1/2, 12×1/4, 12×1/8, 12×1/16 ...

= 12, 6, 3, 3/2, 3/4, ...

Common ratio = Second term / First term

= 6/12

=1/2

Therefore, the common ratio of the given geometric progression is one-half.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

 (6 * 3 )  - (8 * 0)  = 18

The only option that meets the root theorem is option b.

The polynomial function is:

[tex]f(x) = 2x^2 - 4x + 9[/tex]

The rational root theorem says that if a root is a rational number, then the leading coefficient must be divisible by the denominator of the rational number and the constant term must be divisible by the numerator.

In this case, the constant is 9, and the only option such that the constant is divisible by the numerator is option b: 3

Where 3 is a rational number:

3 = 3/1

The numerator is 3 (which divides 9) and the denominator is 1 (which divides the leading coefficient 9. (notice that it meets the theorem, but it is not an actual root).

Answer:

The answer is C (0,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph we have to find a point (x,y) of D.

Find point D. It is on the y-axis, but which one? Positive/Negative y-axis.

It appears to be on the positive y-axis.

Now we have to choose either option C or D.

Option C seems like the best choice since the point is (x,y) is (0,4) on the positive y-axis.

Option D is quite the opposite of point D since the point (0, -4) is on the negative y-axis.

The answer is C. (0,4)

Answer:

since the triangle has a line on 2 sides, it means that it is equal. Also, every triangle has 180 degrees so the missing degree is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Figured it out

Answer:

x = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2 sides are marked as congruent then the triangle is isosceles with 2 base angles being congruent , both 55°

the sum of the 3 angles in the triangle = 180° , so

x + 55° + 55° = 180°

x + 110° = 180° ( subtract 110° from both sides )

x = 70°

Answer:

  85,999,999.999 999 909

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression represents the difference of a relatively large number and one that is relatively small. That difference is approximately the value of the large number. The exact value requires 17 digits for its proper expression. Most calculators and spreadsheets cannot display this many digits.

The numbers in standard form are ...

  86,000,000 = 8.6×10^7

  0.000000091 = 9.1×10^-8

Their difference is ...

  86,000,000 -0.000000091 = 85,999,999.999 999 909

In scientific notation, this is ...

Answer:

An expression for the temperature on February 10  =  -15F +42F = 27F

Step-by-step explanation:

the problem given is based on the algebra of simple addition : -

Addition of Algebraic Expressions : -

In addition of algebraic expressions while adding algebraic expressions we collect the like terms and add them. The sum of several like terms is the like term whose coefficient is the sum of the coefficients of these like terms.

Two ways to solve addition of algebraic expressions.

Horizontal Method: In this method, all expressions are written in a horizontal line and then the terms are arranged to collect all the groups of like terms and then added.

Column Method: In this method each expression is written in a separate row such that there like terms are arranged one below the other in a column. Then the addition of terms is done column wise.

so the question can be solved using Horizontal method :-

temperature on 9 Feb = -15F

temperature rose on 10th Feb = 42F

so the temperature on 10th Feb is :

-15F +42F = 27F

therefore, an expression for the temperature on February 10 is

-15F +42F = 27F (answer)

Answer:

Cost of a T-shirt is £4
Cost of a Hat is £1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T be the cost of each T-shirt and H the cost of each hat

We get two equations based on the cost description

3T + 2H = 14 ...... (1)
2T + 7H = 15 ...... (2)

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 3 so that the T terms are the same
(1) x 2  ==> 6T + 4H = 28  ...  (3)
(2) x 3 ==> 6T + 21H = 45 ... (4)

Subtract (3) from (4) to eliminate the T terms
21H - 4H = 45 - 28 or 17H = 17 ==> H = 1

Substituting the value of H in either (1) or (2) will give us a value for T
Substitute in (1)
3T + 2*1 = 14 ==> 3T = 12, T = 4

Check
In (1) 3 *4 + 2 *1 = 14
In (2) 2*4 + 7*1 = 15
So satisfies both equations

The answer for the following question is

1. m= 10  

2. y- intercept = 300

3. y = 10x + 300

A regression line is a graphic representation of the regression equation expressing the hypothesized relationship between an outcome or dependent variable and one or more predictors or independent variables

1.slope= rise/ run

m= 10  

2. y- intercept = 300

3. Now, the regression line:

y = 10x + 300

At, x = 1

y = 10(1) + 300

y = 310 calories

and  x = 14

y = 10(14) + 300

y = 440

We know the actual value is 330.

Hence, the value of calories is 90 and when x = 14 the value of y = 440 from the regression line, but the actual value is 330.

What must have motivated the behavior of the Investor to commit to such a large stock is; Option C: High Total Earnings

A) Low real returns; This cannot be his motivation to buy large shares because real return is what is earned on an investment after accounting for taxes and inflation. Thus, the lower, the less encouraging to investors.

B) Higher shares costs; This only means that the share cost is currently high which indicates strength of the company but it does not guarantee that it will scale up at a very fast rate again.

C) High total earnings; Thus would be an encouragement to the investor because the higher the total earning potential of an investment, the more the profitability and the more attractive to others.
