what is the sum of the first 5 terms of a geometric series with a sub 1 = 10 and r = 1/5?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.496

Step-by-step explanation:

a=10 (first term)

r= 1/5 (common ratio)

sum of first five terms

[tex] s_{5} = \frac{a( 1 - {r}^{n} ) }{1- r} [/tex]

=10{1-⅕⁵} ÷ 1-⅕

=10{1 - 1/3125} ÷ 4/5

=10{3124/3125} ÷ 4/5

=9.9968÷0.8

=12.496.

OR

a+ar+ar²+ar³+ar⁴

=10+(10x⅕)+(10x⅕²)+(10x⅕³)+(10x⅕⁴)

=10+2+0.4+0.08+0.016

=12+0.48+0.016

=12.496

Solve by substitution:
y=x-12
8x+8y=-16

Answers

Answer:

[tex](x,y) = ( 5 , - 7)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to solve the following system of linear equation by substitution:

[tex] \displaystyle \begin{cases} y = x - 12\\ 8x + 8y = - 16\end{cases}[/tex]

notice that, we're already given the value of y therefore simply substitute it to the II equation

[tex]8x + 8(x - 12) = - 16[/tex]

distribute:

[tex]8x + 8x - 96= - 16[/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex]16 x- 96= - 16[/tex]

isolate -96 to left hand side and change its sign:

[tex]16 x= - 16 + 96[/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex]16 x= 80[/tex]

divide both sides by 16 and that yields:

[tex] \boxed{x= 5}[/tex]

now substitute the got value of x to the first equation:

[tex]y = 5- 12[/tex]

simplify subtraction:

[tex]y = - 7[/tex]

hence,

the solution is (x,y)=(5,-7)

G I V E N :

Solve by substitution :

y = x - 12

8x + 8y = -16

S O L U T I O N :

y = x - 12 ------- eq(1)

8x + 8y = -16 ------- eq(2)

Finding x

Putting y = x - 12 in eq(2) we get

8x + 8(x - 12) = -16

8x + 8x - 96 = -16

16x = 96 - 16

16x = 80

x = 80/16

x = 5

Finding y

Putting x = 5 in eq(1) we get

y = x - 12

y = 5 - 12

y = -7

Hence, x is 5 and y is -7

Answers

Answer:

9.) y=-2x-4

10.)y=2/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, different intercepts

9.) The slope is -2x

To find the parallel line

y-(-4)=-2(x-0)

y+4=-2x

y-4=-2x-4

y=-2x-4

10.) You must first put the equation in slope-intercept form.

-2x+2x+3y=2x+12

3y=2x+12

Divide by 3

3y/3=2x/3+12/3

Simplify

y=2/3x+4

Slope = 2/3x

Once upon a time, there was a former whose family raised pigs and chickens. One morning, the farmer's wife looked into the barnyard and told her husband that she counted 24 heads and 80 feet. How many chickens are in the yard? How many pigs are in the yard?

Answers

Using a system of equations, it is found that:

There are 8 chickens in the yard.There are 16 pigs in the yard.

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

This question is solved using a system of equations. I am going to say that:

x is the number of chickens.y is the number of pigs.

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

A chicken has 1 head, as do a pig.There are 24 heads.

Thus:

[tex]x + y = 24 \rightarrow y = 24 - x[/tex]

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

A chicken has 2 feet.A pig has 4 feet.In total, there are 80 feet.

Thus:

[tex]2x + 4y = 80[/tex]

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

Number of chicken:

Since [tex]y = 24 - x[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4y = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x + 4(24 - x) = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x + 96 - 4x = 80[/tex]

[tex]2x = 16[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{16}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 8[/tex]

There are 8 chickens in the yard.

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

Number of pigs:

[tex]y = 24 - x = 24 - 8 = 16[/tex]

There are 16 pigs in the yard.

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. 5 10 ​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.7}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the length of the third side in a triangle, given the other 2 sides.

Since this is a right triangle (note the small square in the corner of the triangle representing a 90 degree /right angle), we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

[tex]a^2 + b^2 =c^2[/tex]

In this theorem, a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

We know that the unknown side (we can say it is a) and the side measuring 5 are the legs because they form the right angle. The side measuring 10 is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle.

b= 5 c= 10

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]a^2 + (5)^2 = (10)^2[/tex]

Solve the exponents.

(5)²= 5*5 = 25 (10)²= 10*10= 100

[tex]a^2 + 25=100[/tex]

We are solving for a, so we must isolate the variable. 25 is being added to a. The inverse operation of addition is subtraction, so we subtract 25 from both sides.

[tex]a^2 +25-25=100-25[/tex]

[tex]a^2=100-25[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = 75[/tex]

a is being squared. The inverse of a square is the square root, so we take the square root of both sides.

[tex]\sqrt {a^2}= \sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]a= \sqrt{75}[/tex]

[tex]a= 8.660254038[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7 in the tenth place.

[tex]a \approx 8.7[/tex]

The length of the third side is approximately 8.7

The width of a rectangle is 9
inches less than the length. The
perimeter is 86 inches

Answers

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length is x then the width is x-9 inches.

Perimeter

= 2L + 2W = 86

2x + 2(x - 9) = 86

4x - 18 = 86

4x = 104

x = 26

So the length is 26 inches and the width is 17 inches.

What is fraction?

The fractional bar is a horizontal bar that divides the numerator and denominator of every fraction into these two halves.

The number of parts into which the whole has been divided is shown by the denominator. It is positioned in the fraction's lower portion, below the fractional bar.How many sections of the fraction are displayed or chosen is shown in the numerator. It is positioned above the fractional bar in the upper portion of the fraction.

Given:

1/j + 1/k= 1/3

Simplifying the fraction

(k+ j)/ kj= 1/3

3k + 3j = kj

k(3- j) = -3j

k = -3j/ (3- j)

k= 3j/ (j-3)

k = 3j + 9 - 9 / (j-3)

k = 3 + 9/ (j-3)

Since (j-3) must be divisor of 9.

j- 3 = 1---> j=4, k= 3 +9 = 12

j- 3 = 3---> j=6, k= 3 +9/3 = 6

j- 3 = 9---> j=12, k= 3 +9/9 = 4

So, The sum is = 12+ 6 + 4 = 22
