The population of a type of local dragonfly can be found using an infinite geometric series where a1 = 65 and the common ratio is 1/6. Find the sum of this infinite series that will be the upper limit of this population.

Answers

Answer 1
In mathematics, number sequencing of the same pattern are called progression. There are three types of progression: arithmetic, harmonic and geometric. The pattern in arithmetic is called common difference, while the pattern in geometric is called common ratio. Harmonic progression is just the reciprocal of the arithmetic sequence.

The common ratio is denoted as r. For values of r<1, the sum of the infinite series is equal to

S∞ = A₁/(1-r), where A1 is the first term of the sequence. Substituting A₁=65 and r=1/6:

S∞ = A₁/(1-r) = 65/(1-1/6)
S∞ = 78

14x-(6+7x)

(Simplify answer)

Answers

14x-(6+7x)
=14x-6-7x
=14x-7x-6
=(14x-7x)-6
=7x-6x
We can simplify an expression by distributing if needed and combing terms if needed.

In the expression 14x - 6 + 7x the terms 14x and 7x are like terms. Because they both have the same variable and are to the same power.

14x - 6 + 7x
21x - 6

So, 21x - 6 is the answer.

Sydney applied the steps below to find the product of (3.1)(–1.6).

Answers

(-1.6)(3)+(-1.6)(0.1)

Answer with explanation:

We have to find the product of

⇒(3.1)× (-1.6)

 Step 1:→ (3.1)(–1.6) = (–1.6)(3.1)  

Step 2: = -1.6×(3 + 0.1)=(-1.6) ×3 + (-1.6)×(0.1)→→We have used Distributive property of addition with respect to Multiplication, which is , a × (b + c)=a×b + a × c

Step 3: = (–4.8) + (–0.16)

Step 4: = –4.96

The expression which correctly fills the blank is:

  Option D: →→ (–1.6)(3) + (–1.6)(0.1)

C+1/c-2 = 4/7 please show how you got the answer which is 5

Answers

Assuming the equation is (c+1)/(c-2) = 4/7, the answer is actually c = -5

(c+1)/(c-2) = 4/7
7*(c+1) = 4*(c-2) ... cross multiply
7c+7 = 4c-8
7c+7-7 = 4c-8-7 ... subtract 7 from both sides
7c = 4c-15
7c-4c = 4c-15-4c ... subtract 4c from both sides
3c = -15
3c/3 = -15/3 ... divide both sides by 3
c = -5

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

Check:

(c+1)/(c-2) = 4/7
(-5+1)/(-5-2) = 4/7 ... replace every copy of 'c' with '-5'
(-4)/(-7) = 4/7
4/7 = 4/7 .. true equation; answer checks out

So the answer of c = -5 has been confirmed.

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 15x3 + 33x5 feet. What is the length of each side? x3 feet

Answers

In any case, divide by three: equilateral=same sides, triangle=3 sides
Let x represent one side of equilateral triangle.
Next, we know that the perimeter of the equilateral triangle= side+side+side,so
P=x+x+x with the P=15x^3+33x^5 feet
15x^3+33x^5=3x
Divided both side by 3
(15x^3+33x^5)/3=3x/3
x=5x^3+11x^5
x=x³(5+11x²) feet. As a result, the length of each side is x³(5+11x²) feet. Hope it help!

A man owned 5/8 of an interest in a house. He sold 1/5 of his interest, at a cost for $1000. What is the total value of the house? Explain how u solved it.

Answers

First you would have to find a common denominator with 1/5 and 5/8, which would be 40. So, they would now be 8/40 and 25/40. If 8/40 is $1,000, then you need to figure out how many 8/40 you need to get 40/40. You need 5 8/40, so you multiply $1,000 by 5 to get $5,000, which is the answer.

The weight of 10 identical samples of a substance is 0.01 pound what is the weight of 10,000 samples

Answers

We use ratios here.

For every 10 samples, the total weight is 0.01 lb.

We write 
10 / 0.01.

We want to find the weight of 10,000 samples.

We write
10,000/?

These two ratios must equal each other.

(10 / 0.01) = (10,000 / ?)

If you know how to cross-multiply, then we can do that here.
0.01 * 10000 = 10 * ?
100 = 10 * ?

The unknown value is 10, which is your answer.
Answer:

The weight of 10,000 samples is:

                    10 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

The weight of 10 identical samples of a substance is 0.01 pound.

i.e. 10 samples= 0.01 pound.

Now we are asked to find the weight of 10,000 samples.

Since,

10 samples= 0.01 pound.

1000×10 samples= 1000×0.01 pounds

i.e.

10000 samples= 10 pounds.

Hence, the answer is: 10 pounds.

-8 + 8 = 0
You are left with:
-x = 3
Now, we must divide both sides by -1 to solve for x.
-x / -1 = x

(0, –12), (–6, 0), (2, 0)

Answers

Answer:

x-intercepts are (-6,0 and (2,0)

First option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is [tex]y=x^2+4x-12[/tex]

For x-intercept, y=f(x)=0. Thus, we have

[tex]0=x^2+4x-12[/tex]

We can split the middle term as 4x = 6x-2x

Thus, the equation becomes

[tex]x^2+6x-2x-12=0[/tex]

Now, we make group

[tex](x^2+6x)+(-2x-12)=0[/tex]

Take GCF from each of the group

[tex]x(x+6)-2(x+6)=0[/tex]

Factored out the common term

[tex](x+6)(x-2)=0[/tex]

Apply the zero product property,

[tex]x+6=0,x-2=0[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x-6,x=2[/tex]

Thus, x-intercepts are (-6,0 and (2,0)

First option is correct.

an airplane is flying from montreal to vancouver. the wind is blowing from the west at 60km/h. the airplane flies at an airspeed of 750km/h and must stay on a heading of 65 degrees west of north. what heading should the pilot take to compensate for the wind? what is the speed of the airplane relative to the ground?

Answers

Refer to the diagram shown below.

In order for the airplane to maintain a heading of 65° west of north,  it actually heads at (65° +x) west of north at a speed of 750 km/h, to compensate for the wind blowing from west t east at 60 km/h.

The actual speed of the airplane relative to the ground is V km/h.

From geometry, obtain the triangle shown.
The speed of 750 km/h is opposite an angle of 155°, and the unknown angle x is opposite the wind speed of 60 km/h.

From the Law of Sines, obtain
[tex] \frac{sin(x)}{60}= \frac{sin(155^{o}}{750} \\ sin(x)= (\frac{60}{750})sin(155^{o})=0.0338[/tex]
[tex]x=sin^{-1}0.0338=1.937^{o}[/tex]

The heading that the pilot should take is 65 + 1.937 = 66.94° west of north.

The third angle of the triangle is 180 - (155 + 1.937) = 23.063°.
Use the Law of Sines to calculate V.
[tex] \frac{V}{sin(23.063^{o})}= \frac{750}{sin(155^{o})} [/tex]
[tex]V=( \frac{sin(23.063)}{sin(155)} )750=695.21\,km/h[/tex]

Answer:
The pilot heads approximately 67° (nearest integer) west of north.
The speed of the airplane relative to ground is 695.2 km/h (nearest tenth)
