A linear sequence starts a+3b a+7b a+11b the 2nd term has value 19 the 5th term has value 67 work out the values of a and b

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a = -9[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sequence: a+3b, a+7b, a+11b

2nd term = 19

5th term = 67

Required

Find a and b

First, the 5th term needs to be calculated;

Using formula for Arithmetic Progression (AP), the formula goes thus

[tex]T_n = T_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]

Where n = 5

T_1 = a + 3b ------------ FIrst term

[tex]d = T_2 - T_1 or T_3 - T_2[/tex] --- Difference between two successive terms

[tex]d = a + 7b - (a + 3b)[/tex]

[tex]d = a + 7b -a - 3b[/tex]

[tex]d = a - a + 7b - 3b[/tex]

[tex]d = 4b[/tex]

So, [tex]T_n = T_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex] becomes

[tex]T_5 = a + 3b + (5 - 1)4b[/tex]

[tex]T_5 = a + 3b + (4)4b[/tex]

[tex]T_5 = a + 3b + 16b[/tex]

[tex]T_5 = a + 19b[/tex]

Now that we have values for 2nd and 5th term;

From the second, T2 = 19 and T5 = 67

This gives

[tex]a + 7b = 19[/tex] --- Equation 1

[tex]a + 19b = 67[/tex] ---- Equation 2

Make a the subject of formula in (1)

[tex]a = 19 - 7b[/tex]

Substitute these values in equation 1

[tex]a + 19b = 67[/tex] becomes

[tex]19 - 7b + 19b = 67[/tex]

[tex]19 + 12b = 67[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]12b= 67 - 19[/tex]

[tex]12b = 48[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12

[tex]\frac{12b}{12} = \frac{48}{12}[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Recall that b = 4

Substitute a = 19 - 7b and nothing will hire

[tex]a = 19 - 7(4)[/tex]

[tex]a = 19 - 28[/tex]

[tex]a = -9[/tex]

Hence, the values of a and b are -9 and 4 respectively.

Answer 2
Answer:
a= - 9
b= 4
Step-by-step explanation:

From +3b to 7b it's add 4 (so I used this rule to find the next 2 terms.)

4rd term is a + 15b
5 term is a + 19b = 67

create a simultaneous equation between the 2nd & 5th term - since, we know what it's equal to.
a + 19b = 67
a +7b = 19
(same signs/operation of + so subtract to cancel a)

a-a =0
19b - 7b = 12b
67 - 19 =48


0 + 12b = 48
÷12 both sides
b = 4

Substitute, b= 4 into one equation(either from the 2nd or 5th term equation):

a+ 7b=19
a + 7 x 4 = 19
a + 28 = 19
- 28
a= - 9

Hope this helps!

Ms Adams shares out 21 pencils between Niamah and Jack in the ratio 2:5 how many pencils does each child get

Answers

Answer:

niamah : jack

2 : 5

2×3 : 5×3

6 : 15

niamah gets 6 pencils

jack gets 15 pencils

*6+15 = 21

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of Niamah to Jack is 2:5, that means that for every 2 pencils that N gets, J gets 5. If there are a total of 21 pencils, then

2x + 5x = 21 and

7x = 21 so

x = 3.

That means that N gets 2(3) which is 6, and J gets 5(3) which is 15. Notice that 6:15 is the same ratio as 2:5 when it is reduced.

A farmer finds that if she plants 25 trees per acre, each tree will yield 41 bushels of fruit. She estimates that for each additional tree planted per acre, the yield of each tree will decrease by 1 bushel. How many trees should she plant per acre to maximize her harvest?

Answers

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let F be the number of fruit per acre  

F = (25 + x) × (41 - x)  

F=1025 -25x + 41x -x²

F=-x²+16x+1025

The maximum yield is at the maximum of that expression, which is at

[tex]x=-\frac{b}{2a} =>-\frac{16}{-2\times1}[/tex]

x=8

So apparently she currently has far too many trees per acre. To get the maximum yield, she needs to reduce the number of trees per acre by 8.

So the number of trees per acre for maximum yield is 25-8 = 17.

XYZ is a right-angled triangle. Calculate the length of XZ. Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places. PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTION

Answers

Answer:

3.52 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete.

Let us assume XY = 1.35 m and YZ = 3.25 m.

If XZ is the longest side of the right-angled triangle (that is the hypotenuse), we can calculate XZ using the Pythagoras theorem.

The Pythagoras theorem state that the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the square of the other two sides of the triangle.

That is for Triangle XYZ with XZ as hypotenuse:

XZ² = XY² + YZ²

Substituting:

XZ² = 1.35² + 3.25²

XZ² = 1.8225 + 10.5625

XZ² = 12.385

XZ = √12.385 = 3.5192

XZ = 3.52 m to 2 decimal places

Part 3. Identify the X intercepts for

y = (x+4)^2-9​

Answers

Answer:

x = -1 or x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x + 4)^2 - 9​

To find x-intercept, set y = 0

=>  (x + 4)^2 - 9​ = 0

=>  ( x + 1)( x + 7) = 0

=> x = -1 or x = -7

To find the x intercepts, plug in y = 0 and solve for x

y = (x+4)^2 - 9

0 = (x+4)^2 - 9 ... replace y with 0

9 = (x+4)^2

(x+4)^2 = 9

x+4 = plus/minus sqrt(9)

x+4 = sqrt(9)  or   x+4 = -sqrt(9)

x+4 = 3   or   x+4 = -3

x = 3-4    or   x = -3-4

x = -1     or     x = -7 You have the correct answers. Nice work.

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

Checking each answer:

Plug x = -1 into the original equation. You should get y = 0 as a result

y = (x+4)^2 - 9

y = (-1+4)^2 - 9

y = (3)^2 - 9

y = 9-9

y = 0 .... so this confirms x = -1 as a solution

The same should apply for the other potential solution x = -7

y = (x+4)^2 - 9

y = (-7+4)^2 - 9

y = (-3)^2 - 9

y = 9-9

y = 0 .... this confirms x = -7 as well

2 < 10

2 < 100​

Answers

Answer:

Correct option: third one -> X > 100

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the price of Richard's Rental Car is:

P1 = 55 + 0.25*X

The equation for the price of Freddy's Rental Car is:

P2 = 45 + 0.35*X

To find for how many miles will the total charge of Richard be less than Freddy, we have that P1 < P2, so:

55 + 0.25*X < 45 + 0.35*X

0.25*X - 0.35*X < 45 - 55

-0.1*X < -10

0.1*X > 10

X > 100
