8,X,20 are in arithmetic progression,find the value of "x".​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the terns form an arithmetic progression then they have a common difference d , that is

a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂

x - 8 = 20 - x ( add x to both sides )

2x - 8 = 20 ( add 8 to both sides )

2x = 28 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 14

Which of the following is an extraneous solution

Answers

Answer:

3 or

C

Step-by-step explanation:

(45 - 3x)^1/2 = x - 9                     Square both sides

45 - 3x = x^2 - 18x + 81               Switch sides

x^2 - 18x + 81 = 45 - 3x               Add 3x to both sides

x^2 - 15x + 81 = 45                      Subtract 45 from both sides

x^2 - 15x + 36 = 0                       Factor

(x - 12)(x - 3) =0

The answers are

x = 12

x = 3

Now the question asks which is extraneous. The answer will be which ever number won't solve the original equation. Looking at it right now, both look OK.

(45 - 3*12)^1/2 = 12 - 9

(45 - 36)^1/2 = 3

(9)^1/2 = 3

So 12 is a proper solution.

What about 3?

(45 - 3*3)^1/2 = 12 - 3

(45 - 9)^1/2 = 9

36^1/2 = 9

6 does not = 9

The extraneous solution is x = 3

A college with a graduating class of 4000 students in the year 2010 predicts that its graduating class will grow 5% per year.
Using an exponential function to model the number of students y in the graduating class t years after 2010 to predict the number

Answers

Hello,

[tex]u_0=4000\\u_1=4000*1.05 (for\ year\ 2011)\\\\u_n=4000*1.05^n\\So:\\year\ 2017: u_7=4000*1.05^7=5628,401690625\ \approx{5628}[/tex]

Using an exponential function, the number of students y in the graduating class 7 years after 2010 i.e. in 2017 will be 5628.4

What is an exponential function?

y = abˣ, where a is the initial population, b is the rate, and x is the time, is the standard exponential function.

How to solve this problem?

Here initial student population = 4000.

Rate = 5% = (100 + 5)/100 = 1.05

Time = 7 years.

Now, in 2017, the population will be y = 4000 * (1.05)⁷ = 5628.401691 ≅ 5628.4.

Therefore, using an exponential function, the number of students y in the graduating class 7 years after 2010 i.e. in 2017 will be 5628.4

Which of the following is the function for the graph shown?

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros from the graph, where it crosses the x- axis are

x = - 2 and x = 3 , then the corresponding factors are

(x + 2) and (x - 3) , then

y = a(x + 2)(x - 3) ( where a is a multiplier )

To find a substitute any point on the graph into the equation

Using (0, - 6 )

- 6 = a(0 + 2)(0 - 3) = a(2)(- 3) = - 6a ( divide both sides by - 6 )

1 = a

y = (x + 2)(x - 3) ← expand using FOIL

y = x² - x - 6 → D

Loss percent = 10%

[tex]S.P.=C.P.-10\%\text{ of }C.P[/tex]

The 9th term of an arithmetic progression is 3+3p and the sum of the first four terms is 2p-10, where p is constant. Given that the common difference is 2, find the value of p.​

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the first term in terms of p.

So an arithmetic sequence is a linear relation.

That means it will have the same slope no matter the pair of points used. We are given the slope, the common difference, is 2. We are going to use point (9, 3+3p) and (1, t(1)) along with m=2 to find t(1).

[t(1)-(3+3p)]/[1-9]=2

Simplify denominator

[t(1)-(3+3p)]/[-8]=2

Multiply both sides by -8

t(1)-(3+3p)=-16

Add (3+3p) on both sides

t(1)=-16+3+3p

Combine like terms

t(1)=-13+3p

This means we can find the next term by adding 2 this.

t(2)=-11+3p

Let's find the next term by adding 2 this.

t(3)=-9+3p

Finally we can find the 4th term by adding 2 to this

t(4)=-7+3p

We are given the sum of the first 4 terms is 2p-10. So we can write:

-13+3p+-11+3p+-9+3p+-7+3p=2p-10

Combine like terms on left

12p-40=2p-10

Subtract 2p on both sides

10p-40=-10

Add 40 on both sides

10p=30

Divide both sides by 10

p=3.

-----------------

Checking:

t(1)=-13+3p=-13+3(3)=-13+9=-4

t(2)=-11+3p=-11+3(3)=-11+9=-2

t(3)=-9+3p=-9+3(3)=-9+9=0

t(4)=-7+3p=-7+3(3)=-7+9=2

----sum of the first 4 is -4

And 2p-10 at p=3 gives 2(3)-10=6-10=-4

So this part checks out

In general, the pattern that those 4 terms I wrote out follow t(n)=(-13-2)+2n+3p. I know this because the 0th term would have been (-13-2)+3p and this part goes up by 2 each time. The plus 3p part doesn't change.

Anyways t(9)=(-13-2)+2(9)+3p=-15+18+3p=3+3p. And this part looks good too.

you have some marbles. when you make a shape of an equilateral triangle, you either have 5 extra, or you need 10 more to complete the shape, how many marbles do you have? how long is one side of your triangle?
I'm giving brainliest to correct answer!

Answers

Answer:

110 marbles

side 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw triangles using marbles as the sides.

If the side is 2 marbles long, the triangle uses 3 marbles. 1 + 2 = 3

If the side is 3 marbles long, the triangle uses 6 marbles. 1 + 2 + 3 = 6

If the side is 4 marbles long, the triangle uses 10 marbles. 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10

If the side is n marbles long, the triangle uses n(n + 1)/2 marbles.

These numbers are called triangular numbers.

We are looking for the side, n.

n(n + 1)/2 + 5 = (n + 1)(n + 2)/2 - 10

n^2 + n + 10 = n^2 + 3n + 2 - 20

n + 10 = 3n - 18

-n = -14

n = 14

For n = 14

n(n + 1)/2 =

= 14(15)/2

= 105

For n = 15

n(n + 1)/2 =

= 15(16)/2

= 120

105 + 5 = 120 - 10

You have 110 marbles. If you had 5 fewer, 105, you'd have a triangle with sides 14. If you had 10 more, 120, you'd have a triangle with sides 15. Since you have 110, you have 5 too many for side 14 and 10 too few for side 15.

The sides of the triangle is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage increase in price = 17%

New price = original price + Percentage increase in price

= x + 17% of x

= x + 0.17 * x

= x + 0.17x

= 1.17x

Shipping cost = $3

Total cost = $43

Total cost = New price + Shipping cost

43 = 1.17x + 3

43 - 3 = 1.17x

40 = 1.17x

x = 40 / 1.17
