If x = 1, y = 7, and z = 15, determine a number that when added to x, y, and z yields consecutive terms of a geometric sequence. What are the first three terms in the geometric sequence? 3
Given:
[tex]x = 1, y = 7,z = 15[/tex]
A number is added to x, y, and z yields consecutive terms of a geometric sequence.
To find:
The number which is added to x, y, and z, then find the first three terms in the geometric sequence.
Solution:
Let the unknown number be k.
After adding k to x, y, and z, we get
[tex]x = 1+k, y = 7+k,z = 15+k[/tex]
These are the consecutive terms of a geometric sequence. So,
[tex](7+k)^2=(1+k)(15+k)[/tex]
[tex]49+14k+k^2=15+k+15k+k^2[/tex]
[tex]49+14k=15+16k[/tex]
Isolate the variable terms.
[tex]49-15=16k-14k[/tex]
[tex]34=2k[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{34}{2}=k[/tex]
[tex]17=k[/tex]
The unknown number is 17.
Now,
[tex]x=1+k[/tex]
[tex]x=1+17[/tex]
[tex]x=18[/tex]
Similarly,
[tex]y=7+k[/tex]
[tex]y=7+17[/tex]
[tex]y=24[/tex]
And
[tex]z=15+k[/tex]
[tex]z=15+17[/tex]
[tex]z=32[/tex]
Therefore, the three terms in the geometric sequence are 18, 24, 32.
An uber charges a flat rate of $6 plus $1.25 per mile. Kayla can spend no more than $27.50. If she wants to tip her driver $4, what is the greatest number of miles she can uber?
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
to determine the answer
Subtract the amount she wants to tip from the total amount of money she wants to spend
$27.50 - $4 = $23.50
Let m = total miles
the total miles she intends to drive can be determined using this equation
$23.50 = $6 + $1.25m
Collect like terms
$23.50 - $6 = $1.25m
$17.50 = £1.25m
Solve for m
17.50 / 1.25 = 14

Pablo grew a plant for school and recorded the growth of the plant
each week. He wrote ordered pairs to organize his data: (1, 5), (2, 8),
(3, 8), (4, 11), (5, 15).
Is this relation a function? Explain.
Answer:
Yes. the relation is a function
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to check if the relation is a function
if a relation is a function, then every x-values (input values) will have one y-value
No two output values (y values) will have a single x value
Looking at the pairs;
It is a function
Although two x values have same y value; 2 and 3 to 8; no two y values have same x value
Hence, the ordered pairs is a function
A 20 foot ladder is leaning up against the side of a house the distance between the house and the base of the ladder is 4 feet find the angle that the ladder makes with the ground
Answer:
78.5°
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve for the above question, using the formula for the Trigonometric function of Cosine
cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
Adjacent = The distance between the house and the base of the ladder = 4 feet
Hypotenuse = Length of the Ladder = 20 feet
Hence,
cos θ = 4/20
θ = arc cos(4/20)
θ = 78.463040967°
Approximately = 78.5°
Therefore, the angle that the ladder makes with the ground is 78.5°

Find the nth term of this quadratic sequence 3,8,15,24,35...
Answer:
n^2 + 2n.
Step-by-step explanation:
n = 1 2 3 4 5
term t = 3 8 15 24 35
Diffs = 5 7 9 11
2 2 2 - so the nth term contains n^2.
n^2 = 1 4 9 16 25
t - n^2 = 2 4 6 8 10
This is an arithmetic sequence with nth term = 2 + (n-1)2 = 2n
So the nth term of the quadratic sequence = n^2 + 2n.

Find f-1(x) if f(x) = 2x/3-4
Given:
The function is:
[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{2x}{3}-4[/tex]
To find:
The inverse of the given function, i.e., [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex].
Solution:
We have,
[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{2x}{3}-4[/tex]
Step 1: Substitute [tex]f(x)=y[/tex].
[tex]y=\dfrac{2x}{3}-4[/tex]
Step 2: Interchange x and y.
[tex]x=\dfrac{2y}{3}-4[/tex]
Step 3: Isolate y.
[tex]x+4=\dfrac{2y}{3}[/tex]
[tex]3(x+4)=2y[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{3x+12}{2}=y[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{3}{2}x+6=y[/tex]
Step 4: Substitute [tex]y=f^{-1}(x)[/tex].
[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{3}{2}x+6[/tex]
Therefore, the inverse of the given function is [tex]f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{3}{2}x+6[/tex].

According to the line plot what is the total amount of time spent studying by all students who studied 1/4 hour or 3/4 hour
Answer:
2 3/4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We see from the figure that 2 students spent 1/4 hours and 3 students spent 3/4 hours.
So the total time spent is
2* (1/4) + 3(3/4) hours
= 1/2 + 9/4
=(2+9)/4 taking l.c.m
= 11/4
= 2 3/4 hours
The total time spent by 5 students on 1/4 hours and 3/4 hours is 2 and 3/4 hours.

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 189. What
are the integers?
Answer:
61, 63, 65
Step-by-step explanation:
n + n+2 + n+4 = 189
3n = 183
n = 61
Answer:
The three consecutive odd integers are 61, 63, and 65
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the three consecutive odd integers be:
n + 1, n + 3 and n + 5
Therefore:
n + 1 + n + 3 + n + 5 = 189
3n + 9 = 189
3n = 180
n = 60
n + 1 = 61
n + 3 = 63
n + 5 = 65

hi! a note: pls let me know if any of the answers are wrong ! i want anyone to have a wrong answer because of me thank u vm! (obviously, my explanations are not the official mathematical explanations)
1) I just matched up the letters, A to D, B to E, C to F
You can also use ratios, but if you dont need an explanation then ignore it.
2) matched up the angles: B corresponds to E
3) Ratio: 6/16 = x/12
16x = 72 cross multiply
x = 4.5
4) Again, just match up the sides
BC corresponds to EF
hope this helps :D best of luck
Two numerical patterns are shown below: Pattern A: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 Pattern B: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 Select the statement that describes the numerical patterns. The terms in Pattern B are one half the value of the corresponding terms in Pattern A. The terms in Pattern A are one half the value of the corresponding terms in Pattern B. The rule for Pattern B is "multiply by 4." The rule for Pattern A is "multiply by 2."
Answer:
The statement that best describes the numerical patterns is;
The rule for mapping Pattern A to Pattern B is "multiply by 2"
Step-by-step explanation:
The given two numerical patterns are;
Pattern A: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
Pattern B: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40
Therefore;
The ratio of the corresponding terms of Pattern B and A are;
8/4 = 16/8 = 24/12 = 32/16 = 40/20 = 2
We multiply a value in pattern A by 2 to obtain a corresponding value in Pattern B
Therefore the rule for mapping Pattern A to Pattern B is "multiply by 2".
Answer:
Multiply by 2! Basicly D!

On Saturday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 540 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of
cheeseburgers sold was three times the number of hamburgers sold. How many hamburgers were sold on Saturday?
hamburgers
Answer: 135 hamburgers
540 divided by 4 (ratio of hamburgers to cheeseburgers is 3 to 1) = 135. 135 burgers and (135 times 3) 405 cheeseburgers = 540.
Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps! :)

You have 3 red marbles, 5 green, and 2 blue marbles. What is the probability of pulling a blue marble and then replacing the first marble and then grabbing a green marble?
(As a percent)
Answer:
I think it's [tex]\frac{7}{10}[/tex].
Why 7/10?
Well, the probability of pulling out a blue marble + pulling out a green marble is also written as [tex]\frac{2}{10} +\frac{5}{10}=\frac{7}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area can be found using the formula ...
A = 2(LW +H(L+W))
To minimize fraction nonsense, we'll let H be the fraction.
A = 2(12·8 +(3/4)(12 +8)) = 2(96 +15) = 222
The surface area of the prism is 222 square centimeters.
