What is the 6th term of the geometric progression
12.6.3, ... ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a₆ = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of a geometric progression is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ [tex]r^{n-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 12 and r = [tex]\frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , thus

a₆ = 12[tex](\frac{1}{2}) ^{5}[/tex] = 12 × [tex]\frac{1}{32}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{32}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Find a counterexample to show that the given conjecture is false:

The sum of two positive even integers is always an odd integer.

Answers

Answer:

20 + 16 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The conjecture: "The sum of two positive even integers is always an odd integer" can be easily be proven false with a counterexample.

Pick A=20 and B=16, both are positive even integers.

The sum of both A + B = 36 is an even integer. This is a counterexample because being even is the contrary of being odd.

Counterexample: 20 + 16 = 36

In fact, the conjecture is always false, since there cannot be found any pair of positive integers whose sum is odd.

Other possible counterexamples are:

10 + 8, 700 + 40, 12 + 14, etc.

Step-by-step explanation:

In American football, the ball is punted by dropping and kicking it before it hits the ground. The height ht of the football above the ground in meters t seconds after being punted is affected by gravity and by the punter's kick, and can be represented as the difference of two functions: at=4.9t2, which specifies the effect of gravity on the height of the ball, and vt=13.7t+0.5, which specifies the effect of the punt on the ball. With these two functions, ht=vt-at, how high above the ground was the ball when it was punted?

Answers

Answer:

The ball was 0.5 m above the ground before it was punted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since at = 4.9t² specifies the effect of gravity on the height of the ball, and vt = 13.7t + 0.5 specifies the effect of the punt on the ball, the height ht of the ball above the ground after the punt is  ht=vt-at

ht = 13.7t + 0.5 - 4.9t². To find the height ht above the ground at which the ball was punted, we insert t = 0 which is the start time of the punt into the equation for ht. So with t = 0, ht becomes

ht = 13.7t + 0.5 - 4.9t²

ht = 13.7 × 0 + 0.5 - 4.9 × 0²

ht = 0 + 0.5 - 0

ht = 0.5 m

So the ball was 0.5 m above the ground before it was punted.

The amount of fuel remaining in a gas grill is a function of the number of hours, h that the grill has been used. This relationship can be expressed by the function below. F(h) = 100 - 2h Determine and represent the domain of this function for the problem situation using inequality notation.

Answers

Given:

The amount of fuel remaining in a gas grill is a function of the number of hours.

[tex]F(h)=100-2h[/tex]

To find:

The domain for this situation.

Solution:

Domain is the set of input values.

The amount of fuel remaining in a gas grill F(h) is

[tex]F(h)=100-2h[/tex]

where, h is the number of hours.

Here, domain is the set of all possible values of h.

We know that, time and remaining fuel cannot be negative. So,

[tex]h\geq 0[/tex]      ...(i)

[tex]F(h)\geq 0[/tex]

[tex]100-2h\geq 0[/tex]

[tex]100\geq 2h[/tex]

[tex]50\geq h[/tex]       ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]0\leq h\leq 50[/tex]

Therefore, the domain of the given function is [tex]0\leq h\leq 50[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

3.75 or 3[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we can find is the scale factor of the two triangles. You can see that the corresponding sides AB and A'B' are 2 and 8 respectively, and since the two triangles are similar, you can say that triangle ABC is shrunk by a factor of 2/8 or 1/4.

Next, we need to figure out what side B'C' is and we can do this using the Pythagorean theorem [tex]a^{2}[/tex]+[tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]. Using this, we know that [tex]8^{2}[/tex]+

Now, since ABC is shrunk by 1/4 and the corresponding side of BC is equal to 15, we need to multiply 15 by 1/4 and you would find that BC is 3.75 or 3[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

2. Tamara has to go on a business trip. Including taxes, her round trip airfare is $400 and her room costs $150 per night. The cab fare from the airport to the hotel is $40. If Tamara stays for two nights, how much does the trip cost, not including the cost of food?

Answers

Answer:1180,740

Step-by-step explanation:

2 night, so (400x2)+(150x2)+(40x2)=800+300+80=1180 this is cost to go and come back.

400+300+40=740 this is the cost for only going there and not coming back.

What is Distributive property?

Multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number produces the same result as when each addend is multiplied individually by the number and the products are added together.

If an exponent acts on single term in parentheses, we can distribute the exponent over the term.

(2a)^4

=2^4.a^4

The value of 2^4 is 16, because 2^4=2*2*2*2=16.

=16a^4.

Therefore by distributive property of exponents (2a)^4 = 16a^4.

HELP HAVING BAD DAY


Jackie's dad drives her to a friend's house at the speed 30 mph. The friend's mom drives her back using the same route at the speed 25 mph. If the way back takes 6 minutes longer how far away is the friend's house?

Answers

Answer:  15 miles

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

Work Shown:

t = time it takes to go from Jackie's house to her friends house

distance = rate*time

d = 30*t

This represents the distance they travel if they go 30 mph

Then when going back home, they take 6 minutes longer

6 minutes = 6/60 = 0.1 hours

So they take 0.1 hours longer meaning the t updates to t+0.1

d = r*t

d = 25*(t+0.1)

d = 25t+2.5

This represents the trip back home.

Since the distance d doesn't change, we can equate the two right hand sides and solve for t

30t = 25t+2.5

30t-25t = 2.5

5t = 2.5

t = 2.5/5

t = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes

d = 30t = 30*0.5 = 15 miles

The answer is 15 miles!

Jordan has 3 blue shirts, 4 red shirts and 6 orange shirts. She chooses a shirt for Monday and places it in her suitcase. Then, she chooses a shirt for Tuesday. What is the probability that she choose a red shirt for Monday and an orange shirt for Tuesday?

Answers

Answer:

30% on Monday 46% on Tuesday

Step-by-step explanation:

Well you have 3 blue shirts 4 red shirts and 6 orange shirts so what you have to do is add all them together to make it a fraction which you would do 3+4+6 which is 13/13 so the probability of her wearing a red shirt on Monday would be 4/13 since there are 4 red shirts and 13 in total so we make 4/13 as a fraction which would give us 30% chance she would choose a red shirt on Monday and for Tuesday we do the same thing but instead we use orange shirts so which is 6/13 which would give her a percentage of 46% on Tuesday it's more closer to half than the red shirts because 6 pretty much half of 13 but since 13 is a odd number it isn't  half because half of 13 is 6.5

i only have one, sorry!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number = y

Let the smaller number = x

x/y = 9/11

y - x = 6

Add x to both sides of the second equation

y = 6 + x

Substitute into the first equation

x/(x + 6) = 9/11

Cross multiply

11x = 9(x + 6)

Remove the brackets

11x = 9x + 54

Subtract 9x from both sides.

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

y = 27 + 6

y = 33

(27,33)

The way I've done it, there isn't a second pair.

I suppose you could do it this way.

9/11 = -27/-33

-27 - - 33 = 6

So the second pair could be

(-27, - 33)

The items Pedro has selected at his local hardware store have a total cost of $130 before tax. If the sales tax is 8.25%, which is closest to the amount of sales tax Pedro can
expect to pay?

Answers

Answer: $10.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The following can be deduced from the question:

Total cost of items = $130

Percentage of Sales tax = 8.25%

Sales tax = Sales tax percent × Cost

Sales tax = 8.25% × $130

Sales tax = 8.25/100 × $130

= 0.0825 × $130

= $10.725

= $10.7
