what is the fifth term of the linear sequence which begins 20, 14, 8

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The fifth term is -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence has a common difference therefore, it is an arithmetic sequence

The formula for arithmetic sequence is

[tex]an = a1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]

where,

an is the nth term,

a1 is the first term,

n is the term number and

d is the common difference

Find the 5th term.

an = a1 + ( n-1 ) d

a5 = 20 + ( 5-1 ) -6

a5 = 20+ ( -24 )

a5 = -4

Gemma and Leah are both jewelry makers, Gemma made 106 beaded necklaces. Leah
made 39 more necklaces than Gemma.
Each necklace they make has exactly 104 beads on it. How many beads did both
Jewelers use altogether while making their necklaces? How many necklaces did Gemma and Leah each make

Answers

Answer:

Gemma made $34 more than Leah.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gemma made number of beaded necklaces = 106

Leah made 39 more necklaces than Gemma.

Leah made number of beaded necklaces  = 106 + 39 = 145

a. There are 104 beads on each necklace.

The total number of beads used altogether

= (106 × 104) + (145 × 104)

= 11,024 + 15,080

= 26,104

b. Gemma sold her 106 necklaces for = $14

Total price of her necklaces = 106 × 14

                                              = $1,484

Leah sold her 145 necklaces for = $10

Total price of her necklaces = 145 × 10

                                              = $1,450

Difference in Gemma and Leah's amount = 1484 - 1450 = $34.00

Therefore, Gemma made $34.00 more money than Leah.

Answers

Explanation:

(I). 5/6 (4X+8) = (3/8) X - (1/4)

→ [{5(4X) + 5(8)}/6] = (3/8)X - (1/4)

→ [{20X + 40}/6] = (3/8)X - (1/4)

→ [{(20X/6) + (40/6) = (3/7)X - (1/4)

Now,

shift all variables fraction on LHS and constant fraction on RHS.

→ [(20X/6) - (3X/7)]= -(1/4) - (40/6)

Take the LCM of LHS denominator of 6&7 is 42.

→ [(140X - 18X)/42] = -(1/4)-(40/6)

→ [(122X)/42] = -(1/4)-(40/6)

Again take the LCM of the denominator in RHS i.e 4&6 is 12.

→ [(122X)/42] = (-12 - 80)/4

→ [(122X)/42] = (-92)/4

By doing Cross multiply the fraction, we get

→ 4(122X) = 42(-92)

→ 488X = -3 864

→ X = -3 864÷488

Therefore, X = -3864/488

Answer: Hence, the value of X for the given problem is -3864:488.

Explanation:

ii)Given algebraic equation is: 5(3p-5)+4p=5p-6(p+4)

→ 15p - 25 + 4p = 5p - 6p + 24

Shift all variables in LHS and constant on RHS.

→ 15p + 4p +6p = 25+24

→ 19p + 6p = 49

→ 25p = 49

Shift the number 25 from LHS to RHS.

Therefore, p = 49/25.

Answer: Hence, the value of P for the given algebraic equation is 49/25.

You use a garden hose to fill a wading pool. If the water level rises 16 centimeters every 7 minutes
and you record the data point of (21,y), what is the value of y? Use slope to justify your answer.



The rate of change at which the water level rises is ____ centimeters per minute. So solving the equation ____ for y gives a y-value equal to ____

Answers

Rise=16, run=7. Slope is rise/run, and therefore is 16/7. The run is considered to be the x coordinate. Since the x coordinate on the point is 21, we know it has moved 3 exact points away from the origin (21/7=3). We can use this movement of 3 exact points to determine the y coordinate as well. Since the rise (y) is 16 for every exact point on a graph, we know the graph has risen 48 units (16x3=48). So, the point ends up being (21,48). The rate of change is 16cm per 7 minutes, or 2.28cm/minute. The equation is Y=(16/7)X (no y intercept because the graph starts at the origin). The equation gives you the y value of 48 when x is equal to 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x − 4)2 = 4x + 14

=> x = 9

Therefore, 9 is the answer.

What are Linear Equations?

Linear equations are equation involving one or more expressions including variables and constants and the variables are having no exponents or the exponent of the variable is 1.

Given linear equation,

5 (x - 4) 2 = 4x + 14

5 × 2 (x - 4) = 4x + 14

10 (x - 4) = 4x + 14

By distributive property, p (q + r) = p q + p r

10x - (10 × 4) = 4x + 14

10x - 40 = 4x + 14

10x - 4x = 14 + 40

6x = 54

x = 54 / 6

x = 9

Hence the value of x is 9.

Kripa’s father is 35 years younger than her grandfather, and 40 years older than her. If the sum of the ages of the three is 160 years, let’s find her grandfather’s age?

Answers

Answer:

90 years

Step-by-step explanation:

if Kripa's age = x

Father's age = x + 40

Grandfather's age = (x + 40) + 35 = x + 75 (father is 35 years younger than grandfather i.e. grandfather is 35 years older than father)

x + x + 40 + x + 75 = 160

=> 3x = 160 - 115

=> x = 45/3 = 15

grandfather's age = x + 75 = 90 years

Answer:

90 years

Step-by-step explanation:

x + x + 40 + x + 75 = 160

=> 3x = 160 - 115

=> x = 45/3 = 15

Grandfather's age = x + 75 = 90 years

As the result, the number of students per class 10 more than they planned. If there are 1200 grade nine students in the school, determine the current number of class rooms and the number of students per class.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "c" be the original number of classrooms.

The 1200/c was the original number of students per classroom.

----

Equation:

1200/(c-4) = (1200/c)+10

Multiply thru by c(c-4)

---

1200c = 1200(c-4)+10c(c-4)

---

1200c = 1200c-4800 + 10c^2-40c
