The value of the first term of a G.P if its sum of three numbers is 7 and their
product is 8.* find the gp.

Answers

Answer 1
Given:

Sum of three terms in a GP = 7

Product of the numbers = 8

Find:

G.P

Solution:

Let the three numbers be a/r , a , ar where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

So,

⟹ a/r + a + ar = 7 -- equation (1)

And,

⟹ (a/r) * a * ar = 8

⟹ a³ = 8

⟹ a = ³√8

⟹ a = 2

Substitute the value a in equation (1).

⟹ 2/r + 2 + 2r = 7

⟹ (2 + 2r + 2r²)/r = 7

⟹ 2 + 2r + 2r² = 7r

⟹ 2r² + 2r - 7r + 2 = 0

⟹ 2r² - 5r + 2 = 0

⟹ 2r² - 4r - r + 2 = 0

⟹ 2r(r - 2) - 1 (r - 2) = 0

⟹ (2r - 1)(r - 2) = 0

★ 2r - 1 = 0

⟹ 2r = 1

⟹ r = 1/2

★ r - 2 = 0

⟹ r = 2

If r = 1/2 ;

a/r = 2/(1/2) = 2 * 2 = 4

a = 2

ar = 2 * 1/2 = 1

If r = 2 ;

a/r = 2/2 = 1

a = 2

ar = 2 * 2 = 4

∴ Required GP is 4 , 2 , 1 or 1 , 2 , 4.

I hope it will help you.

Regards.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the 4 terms are a/r, a , ar, ar2.

Product of first 3 terms = a3 =8

=> a=2

Sum of last 3 terms :

a(1 + r + r2) = 14

=> r2 + r - 6 = 0

Solving the above equation r= -3 or 2

So the terms are

-2/3, 2, -6, 18

Or

1, 2, 4, 8

Four years ago the average age of A,B and C was 25 years. Five years ago the average age of B and C was 20 years. A's present age is ​

Answers

Given:

Four years ago average age of A , B & C was 25 years.

Find:

A's present age

Solution:

Let the ages of A , B , C be A , B , C years.

Age of A before 4 years = (A - 4) years. Age of B before 4 years = (B - 4) years. Age of C before 4 years = (C - 4) years.

We know that,

Average = Sum of observations/Number of observations.

Here,

Sum of observations = A - 4 + B - 4 + C - 4 = (A + B + C - 12) years.

Number of observations = 3.

So, (A + B + C - 12)/3 = 25

⟹ A + B + C - 12 = 3 * 25

⟹ A + B + C = 75 + 12

⟹ A + B + C = 87 -- equation (1)

Also given that,

Average age of B & C before 5 years was 20 years.

⟹ (B - 5 + C - 5)/2 = 20

⟹ B + C - 10 = 2 * 20

⟹ B + C = 40 + 10

⟹ B + C = 50 -- equation (2)

Subtract equation (2) from equation (1).

⟹ A + B + C - (B + C) = 87 - 50

⟹ A + B + C - B - C = 37

⟹ A = 37 years

∴ A's present age is 37 years.

I hope it will help you.

→ 4md - 2nd = 2 * [ a + (n - 1)d ]

→ 2(2md - nd) = 2 * (a + nd - d)

→ 2md - nd - a + d = nd

→ 2md - nd - (md - 2nd) + d = nd

Answers

*See attachment for the given diagram.

Answer:

∆ABC and ∆FDE are congruent by the SSS criterion.

The value of x is 11 and the value of y is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the Side-Side-Side (SSS) Congruence Theorem, ∆ABC and ∆FDE are congruent to each other. The 3 sides of ∆ABC are congruent to the 3 given sides of ∆FDE.

Thus:

AB ≅ DF

BC ≅ DE

CA ≅ FE

Find x:

Since BC ≅ DE, therefore measure of BC = measure of DE.

BC = x + 3

DE = 14

Thus,

x + 3 = 14

Subtract 3 from each side

x = 14 - 3

x = 11

Find y:

Since AB ≅ DF, therefore the measure of both sides are equal.

AB = 3

DF = x - y

Thus,

x - y = 3

Substitute x = 11 into the equation

11 - y = 3

Subtract 11 from both sides

-y = 3 - 11

-y = -8

Divide both sides by -1

y = -8/-1

y = 8

∠A and \angle B∠B are supplementary angles. If m\angle A=(2x-14)^{\circ}∠A=(2x−14)

and m\angle B=(3x-6)^{\circ}∠B=(3x−6)

, then find the measure of \angle A∠A.

Answers

Answer:

∠ A = 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180° thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180 , substitute values

2x - 14 + 3x - 6 = 180 , that is

5x - 20 = 180 ( add 20 to both sides )

5x = 200 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 40

Thus

∠ A = 2x - 14 = 2(40) - 14 = 80 - 14 = 66°

d

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're solving for a, you'll want to isolate it on one side of the equals sign. When doing this, you have to add q to the left side so it equals zero; and whatever you do to the right, you do the left so (3/4a=k+q). After this, you want to use the same logic to get rid of of the 3/4 on the left side. Since the opposite of 3/4 is 4/3, multiply (3/4)x(4/3) instead of (3/4)/(3/4) to make it easier. Since you did that to the left side, you should do it to the right (a=4/3(k+q)). Sorry for my bad handwriting.

Ayden filled up his car with gas before embarking on a road trip across the country.

Write an equation for G,G, in terms of t,t, representing the number of gallons of gas remaining in Ayden's gas tank after tt hours of driving.

Answers

Answer:

G=-2t=12

Step-by-step explanation:

uh well i did delta thats was the answer they gave me...

Total capacity: 12 gallons

Equation: G = 12 - R*t

What is mathematical expression?

A mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Let R be rate of gas consumption by car = 2 gallons/hr

Let G be the gallons in the car left

let g be the gallons used by the car while driving

Driven time, t = 4 hrs

Remaining gas =4 gallons

according to the question,

consumption rate, R = g/t

After driving for 4 hours

2 = g/4

g = 2*4 = 8 gallons

remaining gas = 4 gallons

therefore, total capacity of the car = 8 + 4 = 12 gallons

equation in terms of gas left,

G = 12 - R*t

Answer:

1. 1.96 g/L

2. 1 g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is found by dividing mass by volume: d = m/v.

1.

We know that the mass is 0.196 grams, while the volume is 100 mL.

Converting the volume to liters, we get:

100 mL = 0.1 L

Then, applying our density formula:

d = m/v

d = 0.196 g / 0.1 L = 1.96 g/L

2.

Here, we know that the mass is 27 grams. However, we don't know the volume, which we need to find.

The block of wood is 3 cm on all sides, which means it's a cube. The volume of a cube is denoted by V = s³, where s is the side length. Here, s = 3, so V = s³ = 3³ = 27 cm³.

Applying our density formula gives:

d = m/v

d = 27 g / 27 cm³ = 1 g/cm³

150 + 6x

Monica led 134 adults, plus 8 student groups.

134 + 8x

Equate both equations

150 + 6x = 134 + 8x

Collect like terms

150 - 134 = 8x - 6x

16 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

x = 16 / 2

= 8

x = 8
