12. The sum of four consecutive numbers in A.P. is 32 and the ratio of the product of the first and last terms to the product of two middle terms is 7:15. Find the number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2, 6, 10, 14

or

14, 10, 6, 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the four consecutive numbers in A.P. be a - 3d, a - d, a + d, a + 3d

According to the first condition:

a - 3d + a - d + a + d + a + 3d =32

4a = 32

a = 32/4

a = 8

According to the second condition:

[tex] \frac{(a - 3d)(a + 3d)}{(a - d)(a + d)} = \frac{7}{15} \\ \\ \frac{ {a}^{2} - (3d)^{2} }{ {a}^{2} - {d}^{2} } = \frac{7}{15} \\ \\ \frac{ {a}^{2} - 9d^{2} }{ {a}^{2} - {d}^{2} } = \frac{7}{15} \\ \\ \frac{ {8}^{2} - 9d^{2} }{ {8}^{2} - {d}^{2} } = \frac{7}{15} \\ \\ \frac{ 64 - 9d^{2} }{ 64 - {d}^{2} } = \frac{7}{15} \\ \\ 15(64 - 9 {d}^{2} ) = 7(64 - {d}^{2} ) \\ \\ 960 - 135 {d}^{2} = 448 - 7 {d}^{2} \\ \\ 960 - 448 = 135 {d}^{2} - 7 {d}^{2} \\ \\ 512 = 128 {d}^{2} \\ \\ {d}^{2} = \frac{512}{128} \\ \\ {d}^{2} = 4 \\ \\ d = \pm 2 \\ \\ when \: d = 2 \\ a - 3d = 8 - 3 \times 2 = 8 - 6 = 2 \\ a - d = 8 - 2 = 6 \\ a + d = 8 + 2 = 10 \\ a + 3d = 8 + 3 \times 2 = 8 + 6 = 14 \\\\ when \: d = - 2 \\ a - 3d = 8 - 3 \times ( -2 ) = 8 + 6 = 14 \\ a - d = 8 -( - 2 )= 8 + 2 = 10 \\ a + d = 8 + ( - 2 )= 8 - 2 = 6\\ a + 3d = 8 + 3 \times ( - 2 )= 8 - 6 = 2 \\[/tex]

Thus the four consecutive numbers of the A. P. are 2, 6, 10, 14 or 14, 10, 6, 2.

(-12a^3b^5)/(4a^2b^7)

state any restrictions on the variable(s) if they exist.

PLEASE HELP DUE TODAYY

Answers

Answer:  (-3a)/(b^2)

Restrictions are that 'a' and 'b' cannot be zero. We could write [tex]a \ne 0[/tex] and [tex]b \ne 0[/tex] as shorthand.

The restrictions are put in place to ensure that you can't divide by zero.

=========================================

Explanation:

The coefficients -12 and 4 divide to -12/4 = -3 which is the coefficient for the answer in the numerator.

The 'a' terms divide to (a^3)/(a^2) = a^(3-2) = a^1 = a. We subtract the exponents to simplify.

The b terms are handled in a similar manner to get (b^5)/(b^7) = b^(5-7) = b^(-2) = 1/(b^2)

Putting all three results together has us end up with (-3a)/(b^2) where neither 'a' nor b are zero to prevent a division by zero error. We cannot have 0 in the denominator.

describe a rule for each pattern. 35,70,105,140​

Answers

Answer:

A linear sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

In this sequence, the difference between the first two terms is  70−35=35 , we can check this is correct by finding the difference between the 2nd and 3rd terms, which is  105−70=35 . This means the first difference is 35.

The first difference gives us the number we multiply  n  by, or the quotient of n.

This means we get the nth term as  35n+c .

To get  c , we check the difference between the first term and the number we get when we multiply  n  by  35 , when  n=1 .

This gives us:

35n+c=35  

c=35−35n  

c=35−35(1)  

c=35−35  

c=0  

Once we have  c , we get the nth term of  35,70,105  to be  35n .

11m - (6m - 5) = 25 solve for m please

Answers

Answer:

m = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]11m - (6m - 5) = 25\\[/tex]

Use - to open the bracket

[tex]-(6m-5)= -6m+5[/tex]

[tex]11m-6m+5=25\\[/tex]

Collect like terms and simplify

[tex]11m-6m=25-5\\5m = 20[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

[tex]\frac{5m}{5} = \frac{20}{5} \\\\m = 4[/tex]

A pole that is 3.3 meters tall casts a shadow that is 1.36 meters long. At the same time, a nearby building casts a shadow that is 47.75 long. How tall is the building?

Answers

Answer:

Height of building is 115.86 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is problem of proportion.

a:b = c:d

____________________________________________________________

height of pole = 3.3 m

length of shadow of pole = 1.36 m

ratio

height of pole: length of shadow of pole = 3.3 : 1.36

________________________________________________

let the height of building= x m

length of shadow of building= 47.75 m

ratio

height of building: length of shadow of building= x: 47.75

ratio in both the cases will be same

thus,

x/47.75 = 3.3 / 1.36

=> x = 3.3 / 1.36 * 47.75 = 115.86

Thus, height of building is 115.86 m.

An investor has an account with stock from two different companies. Last year, her stock in Company A was worth $1700 and her stock in Company B was worth $500. The stock in Company A has increased 20% since last year and the stock in Company B has increased 12%. What was the total percentage increase in the investor's stock account? ​

Answers

Answer:

All together she had a 18.1818182% raise but 18% raise rounded.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find how much each stock increased.

So:

1700 to 2040

500 to 560

Add them.

1700 + 500 = 2200

2040 + 560 = 2600

Then find the raise. You can usally just find the amount for each percent or find the over all raise.

1% of 2200 is 22

400/22 = 18.18

We start with m < A + m < B = m < B + m < C as the given equation. We can rearrange the two terms on the right hand side to get m < A + m < B = m < C + m < B. From here, subtract m < B from both sides to end up with m < A = m < C. The angle B terms go away entirely. This rule I used was the subtraction property of equality. The next rule to use is the symmetric property to go from m < A = m < C to m < C = m < A. This rule is basically where we can flip the two sides of the equation and the equation is the same.

22. Find three consecutive odd numbers such that the sum of five times the smaller number and twice
the larger number is 33 more than six times the median number.

Answers

Answer:

The numbers are 37, 39 and 41.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest number be [tex]x\\[/tex].

Then the other numbers will be [tex]x+2, x+4[/tex] (as they are consecutive odd numbers, their difference will be 2).

As per the given statement:

LHS(Left Hand Side) : Sum of five times the smaller number and twice the larger number.

i.e. five times the smaller number = [tex]5\times x[/tex]

twice the larger number = [tex]2 \times (x+4)[/tex]

Their sum:

The Left Hand Side becomes:

[tex]5x+2(x+4)[/tex]

RHS(Right Hand Side):

33 more than six times the median number:

i.e. [tex]6\times(x+2) +33[/tex]

Equating LHS and RHS:

[tex]5x+2(x+4) = 6x+12 +33\\\Rightarrow 7x+8=6x+47\\\Rightarrow \bold{x =37}[/tex]

Therefore, the numbers are 37, 39 and 41.
