Find the 7th term of the geometric sequence a3 =128,r=-1/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for this sequence is a(n) = a(1)*(-1/4)^(n - 1).  We don't yet know a(1).

If a(3) = 128, then 128 = a(1)*(-1/4)^(3 - 1), or

128 = a(1)*(1/16)

and so a(1) = 128/16

resulting in the specific formua a(n) = 8(-1/4)^(n - 1)

Now let's find a(7):

a(7) = 8(-1/4)^1 * (-1/4)^(6)

or

a(7) = 8(-1/4)^7

Answer:

5, 7, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given we get:

[tex]5x-7=2z[/tex]

[tex]x+2=y\\y+2=z\\x+4=z[/tex]

[tex]5x-7=2(x+4)\\5x-7=2x+8\\[/tex]

Add 7 to both sides

[tex]5x=2x+15[/tex]

Subtract 2x from both sides

[tex]3x=15[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]x=5[/tex]

Using these equations:

[tex]x+2=y\\y+2=z\\x+4=z[/tex]

and

[tex]x=5[/tex]

We get:

If cos 67 degrees is close to 2/5 which is closest to the length of no
PO=100cm
P=23 degrees

Answers

Answer: Sin 23 = 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

If cos 67 degrees is close to 2/5. That is, approximately,

Cos 67 = 2/5

Multiply the numerator and the denominator by 50

Cos 67 = 100/250

From trigonometry ratio,

Cos Ø = adjacent/hypothenus

Where the

Adjacent length = 100 cm

Hypothenus length = 250 cm

Po = opposite length = 100cm

If the degree = 23

The closest length will be

Sin Ø = Opposite/ hypothenus

Sin 23 = 100/250

Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 50

Sin 23 = 2/5

Answer:

40 cm

What are simultaneous linear equations?

Simultaneous linear equations are two- or three-variable linear equations that can be solved together to arrive at a common solution.

To justify the steps taken to solve the system {3x−2y=10, 4x−3y=14}, we need to identify the properties used. Here are the properties that justify each step:

Step 1: We can use the elimination method to solve this system. To eliminate the variable y, we can multiply the first equation by 3 and the second equation by 2 :
{9x - 6y = 30, 8x - 6y = 28}

Step 2: We can subtract the second equation from the first equation to eliminate y:
{9x - 8x = 2}
{x = 2}

Step 3: We can substitute x = 2 into one of the original equations to solve for y. Let's use the first equation:
{3(2) - 2y = 10}

Step 4: We can simplify and solve for y:
{6 - 2y = 10}
{-2y = 4}
{y = -2}

Therefore, the solution to the system is (x, y) = (2, -2).

If the measure of arc AB is 50 degrees what is the measure of its inscribed angle ACB?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

or 130. let me know if I'm wrong

If the measure of arc AB is 50°, then the measure of its inscribed angle ACB is, 130°

What is an angle ?

An angle is a mathematical term, which we can define, when two straight lines or rays meet at a common endpoint. The common point is called the vertex of an angle. The word angle comes from a Latin word named ‘angulus,’.

Interior angles:- The inner angle made by the intersection of two polygonal sides.

Exterior angles:- The outer angle made by the intersection of two polygonal sides.

Given that,

The measure of arc AB = 50°

The measure of its inscribed angle ACB = ?

Here, ACBP will make a quadrilateral

And, the sum of opposite angles of quadrilateral is 180°

So, ∠ACB + ∠AB = 180°

⇒   ∠ACB = 180° - 50°

⇒   ∠ACB = 130°

Hence, the measure is 130°

6) the number of glasses is 5 times the number of boxes.
7) robert is incorrect as he only needs 24 boxes to pack 120 glasses, because 120/24=5

Answer:

6. The relationship is they multiply the first box of glasses by the amount of boxes 15glasses = x 3,

30 glasses = x6

45 glasses = x 9

60 glasses = x 12

75 glasses = x15

= 30, 45, 60,75

But in between glass amount 45 +60 they show a midpoint amount of glasses in a box where 45 = 9n  then 55 = 11n and stands out as  11 boxes as an offset amount of glasses where 5 are in each box.

7. Robert is incorrect as 25 x 5 = 125 and not 120

as 120 and 125 glasses can be divided to check

125/25  = 5 and could be correct if he wanted spare glasses = 1 spare box.

But when we check 120/25 =  4.8 so this would be too many boxes as he would only need 24 boxes.

24 x 5 = 120 glasses.

Answer:

(6, -5)  (Answer C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 2.  We get the following equivalent system:

4x + 2y = 14

 x - 2y  = 16

------------------

  5x = 30, or x = 6.

Substituting 6 for x in the second equation, we get

6 - 2y = 16, or

  -  2y = 10, so that y = -5

Given hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{87}[/tex] and another side = [tex]\sqrt{23}[/tex], the third side can be gotten according to the formula above. On substituting;

[tex](\sqrt{87} )^{2} = (\sqrt{23} )^{2} + x ^{2} \\x^{2} = (\sqrt{87} )^{2} - (\sqrt{23} )^{2}\\x^{2} = 87-23\\x^{2} = 64\\x =\sqrt{64}\\ x = 8[/tex]

The length of the unknown leg in the right triangle is 8

Hypotenuse = [tex]\sqrt{87}[/tex]

Length = [tex]\sqrt{23}[/tex]
