This month the local power company charges $9.12 per kilowatt-hour for electricity. Write an equation that represents the total amount a customer will pay for their usage.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we find the ninth term, we need to find the common ratio. The common ratio in a geometric sequence is the number that every number after the first one is multiplied by. For example, in the sequence {2, 4, 8, 16, 32, ...}, the common ratio is 2.

Now, for our example, the numbers in the sequence alternate between negative and positive numbers. What does that tell us about the common ratio? Well, the common ratio has to be negative because the negative sign keeps alternating.

So we know the common ratio is negative. But what about the rest of the number? Well, we can see that the ratio has a 1 in the numerator because the numerator is the same throughout the sequence (aside from the alternating negative sign).

Now that we've narrowed down the possibilities to -1/x, let's figure out the denominator of the common ratio. The denominator changes from 3 to 9 to 27 to 81. Do you see a pattern there? Each denominator is 3 times the value of the previous denominator. The denominator of the common ratio, then, must be 3.

Ok. We have our common ratio, -1/3, but the question we still need to find the 9th term in the sequence. Well, we can write out the pattern until we get to the term we want. But what if you were trying to find the one hundredth or the one thousandth term? That would take a very long time to write out. Instead, we can take the first number in the sequence (1/3) and multiply it by the our common factor to the power of the remaining terms. As a formula, this looks like: [tex]a_{1} *f^{n-1} = a_{n}[/tex], where a is your first term, f is your common factor and n is the number of the term you are trying to find.

So, finally, we can solve the problem.

1/3 * (-1/3)⁸ = a₉

1/3 * 1/6561 = 1/19683

So the value of the ninth term of the given geometric sequence is 1/19683.

I hope you learned something and it wasn't too difficult to understand.

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation 18/6=108 is not the right representation.

According to the BODMAS rule, the brackets have to be solved first followed by powers or roots (i.e. of), then Division, Multiplication, Addition, and at the end Subtraction. Solving any expression is considered correct only if the BODMAS rule or the PEMDAS rule is followed to solve it.

Given here: One of the option as 18/6=108

But in the question Jenna buys 6 new shirts at $18

Thus the total cost of the shirts is 18*6=108

But 18/6=3

Thus this expression is not the right calculation.

Hence, The 18/6=108 is not the right representation.

 [tex]2. m\angle H+m\angle J +m\angle K =180^{\circ}[/tex]

Reason: the sum of all interior angles of any triangle is equal to 180º.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Organizing

Statement  1. m∠H = 30°, m∠J = 50°, m∠P = 50°, m∠N = 100° 1. Reason: given

2) Since the sum of all internal angles of any triangle is equal to 180º, just like the formula. N the number of sides of a triangle:

[tex]S_{i}=180^{\circ}(n-2)\rightarrow 180(3-2) \therefore S_{i}=180^{\circ}[/tex]

Answer:

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

 In the systems of equation it already gives you the solution for x  which is -2 so all you have to do is substitute -2 into the first equation and solve for y.

y= 2/3x + 3    

x= -2

Substitute x for -2

y = [tex]\frac{2}{3}* \frac{-2}1} + 3[/tex]  

y= [tex]\frac{-4}{3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{3}{1}[/tex]    

y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]  

so now you have the solution like this [tex](-2,\frac{5}{3})[/tex]

The side labeled "a" is made the longer side. These are the two congruent sides. So a > b.

We are told that the longer side is 6.3, so a = 6.3, meaning that

2a+b = 15.7

2(6.3)+b = 15.7

12.6+b = 15.7

b = 15.7-12.6

b = 3.1

The triangle has sides of: 6.3, 6.3, 3.1

The perimeter is 6.3+6.3+3.1 = 15.7

Going back to the question "which equation can be used to find the length of the base?", it sounds like either you were given a list of multiple choice answers, or you just fill in the blank. If multiple choice, then try to see which answer matches with what I wrote above. If fill in the blank, then I would just enter either 2(6.3)+b = 15.7 or 12.6+b = 15.7

2(6.3)+b = 15.7 or 12.6+b = 15.7

Answer: **Incomplete question**

Step-by-step explanation: Your question is incomplete, and missing very important details. However I would attempt to use assumed values in place of the omitted ones so that after explaining, it would be pretty much easy to figure out the solution.

If Rahul was given a total of 32 questions and he has worked out for example 25% of them on Monday and then 50% of them on Tuesday, to find the number  of problems left, we would need to find the number of questions represented by the percentage indicated.

If he has worked out 25% of them on Monday, then that means he had done the following

Percentage done = 25% (or 25/100 which equals 0.25)

Number of problems solved = 32 * 25%

Number of problems solved = 32 * 0.25

Number of problems solved = 8

Further he solved 50% of them on Tuesday

Percentage done = 50% (or 50/100 which equals 0.50)

Number of problems solved = 32 * 50%

Number of problems solved = 32 * 0.5

Number of problems solved = 16

This means he has now solved a total of

8 + 16 = 24

If therefore he has solved 24 problems, then the number of problems left is derived simply as

Unsolved problems = 32 - 24

Unsolved problems = 8

Please remember that the use of 25% and 50% are simply assumptions in order to make explaining the solution easier. Please insert the correct values  of the percentage as appropriate.

No because to be a function, each dot on the graph would need to be located at its own x value. Looking at the graph you see two dots located at x = 5 so it is not a function.

Answer:

First lets subtract 3 from both sides. That gives us 5x = 7x-4. Then lets move the -4 to the other side reversing the sign. 5x+4=7x. Now lets subtract 5x from both sides. That will give us 2x = 4. Now all we need to do as a last step is divide by 2. That will give us x = 2. That is how you solve it in a nutshell

Answer:

The total number of marbles in the set is 107 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Let the size of the marbles be 1 unit

The marbles are arranged to form the equilateral triangle as follows;

1st row = 1 marble

2nd row = 2 marbles and so on so that the total number of marbles for an arithmetic series as follows;

Total number of marbles, t = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n

Therefore;

[tex]t = \dfrac{1 + n}{2} \times n[/tex]

Since there are 2 marbles left in forming the first equilateral triangle, we have the total number of marbles in the set, t₁, is given as follows;

[tex]t_1 = \dfrac{1 + n}{2} \times n + 2[/tex]

When the same marble set are arranged into a triangle in which each side has one more marble than in the first arrangement, there where 13 marble shortage, hence, the total number of marbles is given as follows;

[tex]t_1 = \dfrac{1 + (n+1)}{2} \times (n+1) -13[/tex]

We therefore have;

[tex]t_1 = \dfrac{1 + n}{2} \times n + 2 = \dfrac{1 + (n+1)}{2} \times (n+1) -13[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\dfrac{n^{2}+n+4}{2}=\dfrac{n^{2}+3\cdot n-24}{2}[/tex]

Therefore;

n² + n + 4 = n² + 3·n - 24

2·n = 24 + 4 = 28

n = 14

From which we have;

[tex]t_1 = \dfrac{1 + 14}{2} \times 14 + 2 = 107[/tex]

Therefore, the total number of marbles in the set, t₁ = 107 marbles.

The number of marbles in the set would be as follows:

[tex]107[/tex] marbles

Arrangement

Given that,

After arranging the marbles in an equilateral Δ, 2 marbles would be left

The size of marble being 1 unit,

So,

The first row of the equilateral Δ will consist of 1 marble,

while

The second row comprises of 2 marbles.

The process goes so on and on.

Therefore,

Total marbles [tex]t = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]t = (1 + n)/2[/tex] × n

Because 2 marbles are extra,

[tex]t = (1 + n)/2[/tex] × n [tex]+ 2[/tex]

In case,

The same marble set are framed into a triangle, every side would contain 1 marble exceeding the previous one where 13 marbles would be felt short.

Thus,

Total marbles = [tex]\frac{1 + (n + 1)}{2}[/tex] × [tex](n + 1) - 13[/tex]

by putting the values, we get

[tex]n^2 + n + 4 = n^2 + 3n - 24\\2n = 24 + 4 = 28\\n = 14[/tex]

∵ Total marbles [tex]= (1+ 14)/2[/tex] × [tex]14 + 2[/tex]

[tex]= 107[/tex]

Thus, 107 marbles are the correct answer.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ]

where a₁ is the initial value and d the common difference

Given

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{2}[/tex] [ 10 + (n - 1)3 ]

Then by comparison

2a₁ = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a₁ = 4 ← initial value

and d = 3 ← common difference

Thus

[tex]S_{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{2}[/tex] [ 10 + (7 × 3) ]

   = 4(10 + 21)

   = 4 × 31

Answer:

The time it'd take for the element to have 15 g of mass is approximately 68 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

The radioactive decay of a substance is given by the following formula:

[tex]mass(t) = mass(0)*e^{-\lambda*t}[/tex]

Since the element has a half life of 12 minutes, this means that after this time the mass of the element will be half of it was originally, therefore:

[tex]\frac{mass(0)}{2} = mass(0)*e^{-\lambda*12}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2} = e^{-\lambda*12}[/tex]

[tex]ln(\frac{1}{2}) = -12*\lambda\\\lambda = -\frac{ln(0.5)}{12} =0.0577623[/tex]

Therefore the mass of the element is given by:

[tex]mass(t) = mass(0)*e^{-0.0577623*t}[/tex]

If the initial mass is 760 g and the final mass is 15 g, we have:

[tex]mass(t) = mass(0)*e^{-0.0577623*t}\\\\15 = 760*e^{-0.0577623*t}\\\\e^{-0.0577623*t} = \frac{15}{760}\\\\ln(e^{-0.0577623*t}) = ln(\frac{15}{760})\\\\-0.0577623*t = ln(\frac{15}{760})\\\\t = \frac{ln(\frac{15}{760})}{-0.0577623}\\\\t = 67.9555[/tex]

The time it'd take for the element to have 15 g of mass is approximately 68 min.
