the 3 term of a G.P is 360and the 6 term is 1215. find the common ratio and the sum of the first term​ pls I need d answer quickly its urgent

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

First term = 160

Common ratio = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3rd term and the 6th term of a G.P are 360 and 1215

The terms are 3 terms apart so find the cube root of the ratio between the 6th and the 3rd term as;

[tex]\frac{1215}{360} =\frac{27}{8} \\\\\sqrt[3]{\frac{27}{8} } =\frac{3}{2} \\\\\\=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

The common ratio is : 3/2

To find the first term, divide the third term by the common ratio to get the second term then do that to the second term to get the first term

360 / 3/2

360 *2/3 = 240  -----2nd term

240/ 3/2

240 * 2/3 = 160 ------1st term

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle has the hypotenuse = 18

Let 'Ф' be the missing angle

we know that

cos Ф = adjacent/hypotenuse

Here,

The adjacent to Ф = 13The hypotenuse = 18

so

cos Ф = adjacent/hypotenuse

[tex]cos\:\theta \:=\frac{13}{18}[/tex]

[tex]\theta \:=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{13}{18}\right)[/tex]

At a high school football game, admission is $5 for students and $10 for non-students. There were 500 people at the first game, and the school made $4,000 from admissions. In this activity, you will find the number of students and non-students at the game.

Please write the two equations algebraically and then solve :)

Answers

Answer:x = 200 students

y = 300 non-students

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 10y = 4000

x + y = 500

Set y = 500-x

5x + 10(500-x) = 4000

5x + 5000-10x

-5x + 5000 = 4000

-5x = -1000

x = 200 students

y = 300 non-students

Let's double checks

5(200) + 10(300)

1000 + 3000 = 4000

Find all polar coordinates of point P where P = (9,pi divided by 5).

Answers

Answer:

(-9, π/5 + (2n + 1)π)

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding any integer multiple of 2π to the direction argument will result in full-circle rotations, which are identities, so this family is equivalent to the give coordinates:

(9, π/5 + 2nπ), for any integer n

Also, multiplying the radius by -1 is a point reflection, equivalent to a half-turn rotation. Then add π to the direction for another half turn, and the result is another identity. So this too is equivalent to the given coordinates:

(-9, π/5 + (2n + 1)π), for any integer n

A little girl counts using the fingers of her left hand as follows: She starts by calling her thumb 1, the first finger 2, middle finder 3, ring finger 4, and little finger 5. Then she reverses direction, calling the ring finger 6, middle finger 7, first finger 8 and thumb 9, after which she calls her first finger 10 and so on. If she continues to count in this manner, on which finger will she stop?
a) What if the girl counts from 1 to 10?
b) What if the girl counts from 1 to 100?
c) What if the girl counts from 1 to 1000?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Index finger

(b) Ring finger

(c) Index finger

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking thumb as standard for the question.

Thumb series 1 , 9 , 17 ,25, 33......

general term for this

a(n) = 1 + (n-1)8

      = 1 + 8n -8

       = 8n -7

(a) For 1 to 10

     8n -7 = 10

     8n = 16+1 (remainder)

so the thumb is for 9 and the next is index finger.

10th = index finger.

(b) for 1 to 100

    8n - 7 = 100

      8n= 107

     107 = 13x 8 + 3(remainder)

so the third finger from thumb is Ring finger

100th = Ring finger

(c) 8n - 7 = 1000

   8n = 1007      

 1007= 125x8 +7 (remainder)

so the 7th finger next to thumb is Index finger

1000th = index finger

Can someone help me solve this equation? x2 + x - 30 = 0

2x + x - 30 = 0             collect like terms

3x - 30 = 0                move constant to the right hand side and change its sign

How do I solve this problem and check all the solutions?

Answers

Answer:

x-5=sqrt(2x+5)

then square both sides

x2-10x+25=2x+5

x2-8x+20=0

rest is trivial

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x - [tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = 5 ( subtract x from both sides )

- [tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = 5 - x ( divide all terms by - 1 )

[tex]\sqrt{2x+5}[/tex] = x - 5 ( square both sides )

2x + 5 = (x - 5)²

2x + 5 = x² - 10x + 25 ( subtract 2x + 5 from both sides )

0 = x² - 12x + 20 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 2)(x - 10) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions

x = 2

2 - [tex]\sqrt{4+5}[/tex] = 2 - [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] = 2 - 3 = - 1 ≠ 5

Thus x = 2 is an extraneous solution

x = 10

10 - [tex]\sqrt{20+5}[/tex] = 10 - [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] = 10 - 5 = 5 = right side

Thus x = 10 is the solution

Mrs. Jones charges $80 per lesson and she requires three so we do 80* 3 (the lessons) which equals 240  

Mrs. Beliz charges $62 per lesson and requires 4 lessons so we do 62*4 (the lessons) which equals 248

ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′. If A = (2, 2), B = (4, 3), and C = (6, 3), what is the length of ?

Answers

Answer:

Fourth option is correct. The length of B'C' is 1 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices of triangle ABC are A = (2, 2), B = (4, 3), and C = (6, 3).

Distance formula:

The length of BC is 2 units.

It is given that ΔABC is dilated by a scale factor of 0.5 with the origin as the center of dilation, resulting in the image ΔA′B′C′.

It means the ΔABC and ΔA′B′C′ are similar and corresponding sides of ΔA′B′C′ and ΔABC are proportional.

The scale factor is 0.5.

Therefore the length of B'C' is 1 unit and fourth option is correct

A $ 4.00 sales tax is charged for a $ 50.00 purchase . At this rate, what is the sales tax for a 1200.00 purchase

Answers

Sales tax for the purchase of $50 is $4

Therefore, x% of 50 = 4

(x%) 50 = 4

x/100 x 50 = 4

x/2 = 4

x = 4 x 2

x = 8

Therfore, there is a 8% sales tax on the purchase.

Sales tax on the purchase of $1200 = 8% of 1200

= 8/100 x 1200

= 8 x 12

= 96

A $96.00 sales tax is charged on a purchase of $1200.00

What is the direction, y-intercept, and zeroes of f(x) = 4x^2 + 10x + 12.

Answers

I think to find the y-intercept, substitute 0 for x and sole for y. Y- intercepts (0, -12). The roots (zeroes) are the value where the graph intersects the x-axis. To find the the zeroes, replace y with 0 and solve for x. x = 3, -4. I’m sorry if this is wrong.

The direction of f(x) = 4x² + 10x + 12 is in upward direction.

y intercept of the f(x) is (0,, 12).

And number of zeros in f(x) is 2, at x = -5/4 + (√23 / 4)i  and  -5/4 - (√23 / 4)i.

What is function?

Function is a combination of different types of variable and constants in which for the different values of x the value of function y is unique.

The given function is,

f(x) = 4x² + 10x + 12.

The coefficient of x² is 4 which is positive, therefore, the graph is in the upward direction.

To find y intercept of the function,

Substitute x = 0, in the function,

f(x) = y = 4 (0)² + 10 (0) + 12

y = 12

The y intercept of the function is (0, 12).

To find the number of zeros, Substitute f(x) = 0,

Implies that,

4x² + 10x + 12 = 0

The values of x for the given quadratic equation are,

x =-5/4 + (√23 / 4)i and x =-5/4 - (√23 / 4)i

The number of zeros is two at -5/4 + (√23 / 4)i  and  -5/4 - (√23 / 4)i.
