what is the sum of the geometric sequence -3,18,-108,.. if there are 7 terms?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]S_{7}[/tex] = - 119973

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex]

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a = - 3 and r = 18 ÷ - 3 = - 6 , thus

 [tex]S_{7}[/tex]   = [tex]\frac{-3(-279936-1)}{-6-1}[/tex]

    = [tex]\frac{-3(-279937)}{-7}[/tex]

    = [tex]\frac{839811}{-7}[/tex]

     = - 119973

Daryl biked for 12 minutes and traveled 1.6 miles. If He kept the same pace, how far would he travel in 3.5 hours? please show work if possible!!!!

Answers

Answer:

27.999999993 or 27.9 or 28 (rounded) miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find out how many miles he goes every minute.

(1.6 ÷ 12 = 0.13 recurring (0.1333333333)

3.5 hours = (60 × 3) + 30 = 210 minutes

Multiply 0.13 recurring (0.1333333333) by 210 mins.

210 × 0.13 recurring (above number) = 27.999999993 (You can round this up to the nearest whole number), which is 28 if the question asks you to but as it uses 1.6 miles, you can leave it as 27.9 or even leave the long decimal if you're not entirely sure.

The cost price of a car is $60 000. If the marked price is set so as to make a profit of 15%, find the
marked price.

Answers

Answer:

marked price = $69,000

Step-by-step explanation:

cost price = $60,000

profit

= 15%

= 15% × cost price

= 15/100 × $60,000

= $9000

marked price

= cost price + profit

= $60,000 + $9000

= $69,000

Answers

98% of 25,000 is 24,500.

So from this, we can make the inequality:

25,000 - 500x

x = 5 days.

May I have brainliest please? :)

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

At least means 25000 and bigger. But 25000 is included in the inequality.

You should write an inequality to to represent the number of pieces of luggage

x ≥ 25000

100% - 98% = 2%

2% of all luggage lost is never found. Multiply both sides of x ≥ 25000 by 2%

2 percent x ≥ 25000 * 2%

2 percent x ≥ 500

Note that 2 percent is not an algebraic variable. 2% is. 2% = 2/100, but that is not what you want on the left.

Answer:  He is not correct. The resulting will be in a different quadrant.

Step-by-step explanation:  This would be much easier to answer with a screen shot of the image.

For example, if the original image is in quadrant 1, the first reflection over the x-axis places the new image in quadrant 4, "upside-down" and the second reflection over the y=x line places the new image in quadrant 2 and "oblique" to the original.

Reflecting the original over the y=-x line places the new image in quadrant 3.

Answer:

position         1             5             8                12               19             25

term              -8            8             20             36               64            88

Step-by-step explanation:

(n - 1) is position ( n ∈ N)

d is the distance between the numbers in the sequence

a1 is the first number in the sequence

we have the fuction: a(n) = a1 + (n - 1)d

see in the table, with position = 1, term = -8 => a1 + d = -8

                                    position = 25, term = 88 => a1 + 25d = 88

=> we have: a1 + d = -8

                     a1 + 25d = 88

=> a1 = -12

    d = 4

=> a(n) = -12 + 4(n - 1)

=> term = 8, position = (8 + 12)/4 = 5

    position = 8, term = -12 + 4.8 = 20

    term = 36, position = (36 + 12)/4 = 12

    position = 19, term = -12 + 4.19 = 64

Answer:

The required table is:

Position   1     5       8      12      19      25

Term      -8     8      20     36     64     88  

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where n is the nth term, a₁ is the first term and d is the difference.

Looking at the table, we know that

a₁ = -8 and

a₂₅ = 88

We can find the common difference d:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\n=25, a_1=-8, a_{25}=88\\a_{25}=a_1+(25-1)d\\88=-8+24(d)\\88+8=24\:d\\96=24\:d\\d=\frac{96}{24}\\d=4[/tex]

So, we have d = 4

Now we can fill the remaining table.

We have to find position n, when term (a_n) is 8

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\8=-8+(n-1)4\\8=-8+4n-4\\8=-12+4n\\8+12=4n\\20=4n\\n=\frac{20}{4}\\n=5[/tex]

So, when term is 8, position is 5

We have to find term a_n when position n is 8

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_8=-8+(8-1)4\\a_8=-8+7(4)\\a_8=-8+28\\a_8=20[/tex]

So, when position is 8 term is 20

We have to find position n, when term (a_n) is 36

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\36=-8+(n-1)4\\8=-8+4n-4\\8=-12+4n\\36+12=4n\\48=4n\\n=\frac{48}{4}\\n=12[/tex]

So, when term is 36, position is 12

We have to find term a_n when position n is 19

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{19}=-8+(19-1)4\\a_{19}=-8+18(4)\\a_{19}=-8+72\\a_{19}=64[/tex]

when position is 19 term is 64

So, the required table is:

Position   1     5       8      12      19      25

Term      -8     8      20     36     64     88

Is it sometimes,never, or always that An integer is less than its opposite

and greater than 0.

Answers

Answer:

Sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

SOMETIMES, An integer is less than its opposite and greater than 0.

This is because a negative integer has a positive opposite, hence a negative integer will be less than its opposite.

However, a positive integer also has a negative opposite so it will be greater than its opposite.

For example, a negative integer of -5 is less than a positive integer of 5 which is it's opposite and at the same time, a positive integer of 5 is greater than its opposite which is negative integer of -5.

Also, even though a positive integer is greater than 0, a negative integer on the other hand is less than 0

The rate of change for the given function is 2.25. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

What is rate of change of a function?

The rate of change, or the slope, is calculated as Δy/Δx , or (y2−y1)/(x2−x1). The slope-intercept equation of a line is y=mx+b , where m is the slope and b is the initial value.

From the given table, we have (1, 4.5), (2, 6.75), (3, 10.125) and (4, 15.1875).

Using coordinate points (1, 4.5) and (2, 6.75), we get

Rate of change = (6.75-4.5)/(2-1)

= 2.25

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

There are oranges that are ¥90 and apples that are ¥150.
When you buy a total of 15 of them, your total cost is ¥1890.
How many oranges and apples did you buy?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

If 15 oranges were bought,

the total cost would be 15 * ¥90 = ¥1350.

¥1890 - ¥1350 = ¥540.

For every orange that switches to an apple,

the cost increases by ¥150 - ¥90 = ¥60.

Number of apples = ¥540 / ¥60 = 9.

Therefore there are 6 oranges and 9 apples.

Answer:

6 oranges and 9 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of oranges be x then the number of apples = 15 - x.

So  90x +  150(15 - x) = 1890

90x - 150x + 2250 = 1890

-60x = -360

x = 6

and number of apples = 15 - 6

So it's 6 oranges and 9 apples.

What is the rule used to reflect the triangle ABC to its image?
A. Reflect over y = -x
B. Reflect over y = x
C. Reflect over the x axis
D. Reflect over the y-axis

Answers

Answer:

The rule used to reflect Δ ABC to its image is Reflect over y = x B

Step-by-step explanation:

If the point (x, y) reflected across the x-axis , then its image is (x, -y) If the point (x, y) reflected across the y-axis , then its image is (-x, y) If the point (x, y) reflected across the line y = x , then its image is (y, x) If the point (x, y) reflected across the line y = -x , then its image is (-y, -x)

From the given figure

∵ The coordinates of point A are (-4.5, 6)

∵ The coordinates of point A' are (6, -4.5)

→ The coordinates are switched ⇒ 3rd rule

∴ Point A is reflected over the line y = x

∴ Δ ABC is reflected over the line y = x

The rule used to reflect Δ ABC to its image is Reflect over y = x

Note: Point B' on the graph should be C' and point C' should be B' (correct it)

Four intersecting lines, t, v, u, and w, are shown in the diagram.

Answers

Answer:  x = 12

===============================================

Explanation:

Line w and line t are parallel if and only if the corresponding angles (4x+60) and (9x) are congruent.

9x = 4x+60

9x-4x = 60

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12

If x = 12, then

9x = 9*12 = 108

4x+60 = 4*12+60 = 48+60 = 108

Both corresponding angles would be 108 degrees if x = 12. So this confirms we have the right x value.

. Alex bought a new bike last weekend. It was $185 and he had to pay tax at a rate of 8%. How
much tax did he pay?

Answers

Answer:

$14.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Original bike price: $185

Tax: 8% OR 0.08 as a DECIMAL

To find your answer, multiply the bike price by the DECIMAL (number) tax amount:

185 x 0.08

= 14.8

Therefore, Alex paid $14.80 in tax.

Answer: $14.80

Step-by-step explanation:

We know: The bike is $185, and the tax is 8% of the product.

So we multiply them together.

185 * 8 / 100 = 14.8

or

185 * 0.08 = 14.8

The tax will be $14.80.

The other way to solve this question is by cross multiply.

[tex]\ \frac{x}{185} = \frac{8}{100}\[/tex]

But what you get would still be the same as just multiply it directly.

185*5/100 = 14.8
