Answer:

In a geometric sequence, each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant value called the common ratio (r).

In this case, the first term (a₁) is 2, and the common ratio (r) can be found by dividing any term by its preceding term. Let's calculate it:

r = 6 / 2 = 3

Now, to find the 15th term (a₅₊₁₋₅), we can use the formula:

aₙ = a₁ * r^(n-1)

Substituting the values, we have:

a₁ = 2

r = 3

n = 15

a₁₅ = 2 * 3^(15-1)

Calculating the exponent first:

3^(15-1) = 3^14 = 4782969

Now, substituting this value back into the formula:

a₁₅ = 2 * 4782969

a₁₅ = 9565938

Therefore, the 15th term of the geometric sequence 2, 6, 18, ... is 9565938.

163. The distance between A(-5, 6) and B(5, -5) is: AB ≈ 14.9 units

164. Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we have: Diagonal ≈ 21.2 ft.

165. Marissa's final answer is wrong. It should be, c = √676 = 26 units.

166. Missing side = 29 ft.

The Pythagorean theorem states that c² = a² + b², given that a and b are shorter legs and c is the hypotenuse or longest leg of the right triangle.

163. The distance between A(-5, 6) and B(5, -5):

AB = √[(5−(−5))² + (−5−6)²]

AB = √221

AB ≈ 14.9 units

164. Apply the Pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal:

Diagonal = √(15² + 15²) ≈ 21.2 ft.

165. The answer Marissa got is wrong. The final answer which is the square root of 676 is:

c = √676 = 26 units.

166. Missing side = √(20² + 21²) = 29 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the common difference of an arithmetic sequence is easy peasy lemon squeezy. All you have to do is take any term and subtract it from the next one. For instance, if you take 1 and subtract it from 8, you get 7. If you take 8 and subtract it from 15, you get 7 again. You can do this for any pair of terms and you will always get 7. That's the common difference of the sequence 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36, 43. It means that you just add 7 to each term to get the next one. Isn't that neat?

The values of the constants m and c include the following:

m = -1.3

c = 7.1

In Mathematics and Geometry, the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given by this mathematical equation;

y = mx + c

Where:

Since the point P(-7, 2) is mapped onto P' (3, -11) by the reflection y = mx + c, we can write the following system of equations;

2 = -7m + c    ...equation 1.

-11 = 3m + c    ...equation 2.

By solving the system of equations simultaneously, we have:

2 = -7m - 3m - 11

11 + 2 = -10m

13 = -10m

m = -1.3

c = 7m + 2

c = 7(-1.3) + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a right triangle with hypotenuse = QS

The  base from the graph = 4 units
(or you can just subtract the x-coordinates 2 - (-2) = 4)

The height from the graph is 3 units
(Or you can subtract the y-coordinates: 1 - (-2) = 3)

Since this is a right triangle the square of the hypotenuse = sum of squares of the other two sides

QS² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25

QS, the hypotenuse = √25 = 5

The perimeter = sum of the sides = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

.

Peter left Town A around 10 a.m., traveling at an average speed of 84 km/h. William would reach Town B at 1:23 PM.

Firstly, we need to find the distance between Town A and Town B which can be calculated by calculating the distance travelled by Peter

Time taken by Peter = 2PM - 10AM

= 4 hrs

Speed of Peter = 84 km/h

Distance travelled by Peter = speed × time

= 84 × 4

= 336 km

So, the distance between Town A and Town B  = distance travelled by Peter = 336 km.

Now, we will calculate time taken by William.

Speed of William = 70 km / hr

Distance travelled by William = distance between Town A and town B = 336 km

Time taken by William = distance / speed

= 336 / 70 hr

= 4.8 hr

This can b converted into hrs and minutes

4.8 hr = 4 hr + 0.8 × 60

= 4 hr 48 mins

Time William took off = 10 AM - 1hr 25 mins

= 8:35 AM

Now, we will calculate the time William would reach town B.

Time = 8:35 + 4hr 48 mins

= 1:23 PM

The equation that represents the amount of money in Sara's piggy bank is y = 0.6x + 1 and the equation that represents the amount of money in Kim's piggy bank is y = 0.2x + 2.2.

The equation that represents the amount of money in Sara's piggy bank over time can be written as

Y = 0.6x + 1

Where Y represents the total amount of money in Sara's piggy bank and x represents the number of weeks.

Similarly, the equation that represents the amount of money in Kim's piggy bank over time can be written as

Y = 0.2x + 2.2

Where Y represents the total amount of money in Kim's piggy bank and x represents the number of weeks.

The correct answer is, A (aka 12)

Okay, here are the steps to solve this problem:

Fixed costs per month: $1121

Variable cost per gallon: $7.50

Selling price per gallon: $9.00

Monthly sales (gallons): 1494

Cost of goods sold = Variable cost per gallon * Monthly sales

= $7.50 * 1494 gallons

= $11,105

Gross margin = Revenue - Cost of goods sold

= $9 * 1494 gallons

= $13,446

- $11,105 (Cost of goods sold)

= $2,341

Margin of profit = Gross margin - Fixed costs

= $2,341 - $1121

= $1,220

So the margin of profit if 1494 gallons are produced and sold each month is $1,220.

The answer is:

Tommy and Ruth will meet at a coordinate that is 0.5x km away from Ruth's starting point.

In this problem, Tommy and Ruth are cycling towards each other. We are given that Tommy cycles twice as fast as Ruth and they both start cycling at the same time. Our goal is to determine at which coordinate they will meet.

To solve this problem, we need to use the concept of distance, speed, and time. Let's assume that Ruth cycles at a speed of "x" km/hr. Since Tommy cycles twice as fast as Ruth, his speed will be "2x" km/hr.

Let's say that Tommy and Ruth meet at a distance of "d" km from Ruth's starting point. Now, let's calculate the time taken by both Tommy and Ruth to reach this point.

Time taken by Ruth = Distance/Speed = d/x

Time taken by Tommy = Distance/Speed = d/2x

Since they both start cycling at the same time, we can set these two equations equal to each other:

d/x = d/2x

We can then simplify this equation by multiplying both sides by 2x:

2d/x = d

Now we can solve for "d" by multiplying both sides by "x":

2d = dx

d = 0.5x

This means that Tommy and Ruth will meet at a coordinate that is 0.5x km away from Ruth's starting point. To determine the exact coordinates, we need to know where Ruth started cycling from and in which direction they are cycling. If we assume that Ruth started cycling from the origin (0,0) and they are cycling towards each other on a straight path, then they will meet at the coordinate (0.5x, 0).

For the given linear equation y = (1/4)*x + 5/4.

Here we have the linear equation:

y = (1/4)*x + 5/4.

to check if (1, 1.5) is a solution we need to evaluate this in x = 1 and see if we get 1.5.

y = (1/4)*1 + 5/4

y = 6/4 = 3/2 = 1.5

Then (1, 1.5) is a solution.

For the second point we evaluate in x = 12.

y = (1/4)*12 + 5/4

y = 3 + 5/4 = 4.25

So (12, 4) is not a solution.

Finally, to find the x-intercept, we evaluate in y = 0.

0 = (1/4)*x + 5/4

The resultant displacement is approximately 13.071m north and 8m east.

To find the resultant displacement, we need to combine the given displacements in a vector-like manner.

Let's break down the displacements into their components and then add them up.

The first displacement is 6m north.

Since it is purely in the north direction, its components would be 6m in the north direction (along the y-axis) and 0m in the east direction (along the x-axis).

The second displacement is 8m east.

As it is purely in the east direction, its components would be 0m in the north direction and 8m in the east direction.

The third displacement is 10m northwest.

To find its components, we can split it into two perpendicular directions: north and west.

The northwest direction can be thought of as the combination of north and west, each with a magnitude of 10m.

Since they are perpendicular, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the components.

The north component would be 10m multiplied by the cosine of 45 degrees (45 degrees because northwest is halfway between north and west).

Similarly, the west component would be 10m multiplied by the sine of 45 degrees.

Calculating the components:

North component = 10m [tex]\times[/tex] cos(45°) = 10m [tex]\times[/tex] 0.7071 ≈ 7.071m

West component = 10m [tex]\times[/tex] sin(45°) = 10m [tex]\times[/tex] 0.7071 ≈ 7.071m

Now, let's add up the components:

North component: 6m (from the first displacement) + 7.071m (from the third displacement) = 13.071m north

East component: 8m (from the second displacement).

Let the first point be P ( 0 , 3 )

Let the second point be Q ( -3 , 0 )

Now , the slope of the line is m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

m = ( 3 - 0 ) / ( 0 + 3 )

m = 1

Now , equation of line is y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y - 0 = 1 ( x + 3 )

y = x + 3

And , the second equation is

Let the first point be R ( 0 , -4 )

Let the second point be S ( 2 , 2 )

Now , the slope of the line is m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

m = ( -4 - 2 ) / ( 0 - 2 )

m = -6/-2

m = 3

Now , equation of line is y - y₁ = m ( x - x₁ )

y - 2 = 3 ( x - 2 )

Adding 2 on both sides , we get
