Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Second term of a geometric series is 2, the limiting sum is 9.
Get the values of first term a and common ratio r.
Solution:
A geometric series is in the form:
a + ar + ar² + ar³ + . . . + arⁿ ⁻ ¹
Where a is the first term, n is the nth term and r is the second ratio.
Since the second term of the series is 2, hence:
ar⁽² ⁻ ¹⁾ = 2
ar = 2 (1)
Also, the limiting sum is 9, hence:
a/ (1 - r) = 9
a = 9 - 9r (2)
Substitute a = 9 - 9r in eqn 1:
(9 - 9r)r = 2
9r - 9r² = 2
9r² - 9r + 2 = 0
9r² - 6r - 3r + 2 = 0
3r(3r - 2) -1(3r - 2) = 0
(3r - 1)(3r - 2) = 0
r = 1/3 or r = 2/3
When r = 1/3; a = 9 - 9r = 9 - 9(1/3) = 6
When r = 2/3; a = 9 - 9r = 9 - 9(2/3) = 3

9514 1404 393
Answer:
65°
Step-by-step explanation:
Any sort of bisector divides a geometry into two congruent parts. Here, we have an angle bisector that divides the larger (130°) angle into two equal parts. The measure of each of the resulting smaller angles will be 130°/2 = 65°.
∠JAE = 65°

Help me I beg u! The pre-image coordinates of a triangle are J(-6,9), K(-6,4), and L(-3,4). The coordinates of the transformed triangle are J'(2,9), K'(2,4), and L'(5,4). What transformation has occurred? A. translation B. reflection C. dilation D. rotation Reset Next Question
Answer:
A. Translation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Preimage
[tex]J = (-6,9)[/tex]
[tex]K = (-6,4)[/tex]
[tex]L = (-3,4)[/tex]
Image
[tex]J' = (2,9)[/tex]
[tex]K' = (2,4)[/tex]
[tex]L' = (5,4)[/tex]
Required
Which transformation occurred
The transformation that occurs is translation because each of the preimage were translated or shifter right by 8 units.
The rule applied here is:
[tex](x,y)=>(x+8,y)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]J = (-6,9)[/tex] [tex]==> (-6+8,9) = (2,9)[/tex]
[tex]K = (-6,4)[/tex] [tex]==> (-6+8,4) = (2,4)[/tex]
[tex]L = (-3,4)[/tex] [tex]==> (-3+8,4) = (5,4)[/tex]
Hence, the transformation is (a) Translation

Gaelle Bosquet Nth Term of an Arithmetic Sequence Apr 10, 12:29:36 AM Find the 60th term of the arithmetic sequence 4,-1,-6, ... Answer: Submit Answer
Answer:
The nth term is [tex]a_n = 4 - 5(n-1)[/tex]
The 60th term of the sequence is -291.
Step-by-step explanation:
Arithmetic sequence:
In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and it is called common difference.
The nth term is given by:
[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]
In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and d is the common difference.
4,-1,-6
The common difference is:
[tex]d = -1 - 4 = -5[/tex]
First term [tex]a_1 = 4[/tex]
So
[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]
[tex]a_n = 4 - 5(n-1)[/tex]
60th term:
[tex]a_{60}[/tex]. Si
[tex]a_{60} = 4 - 5(60-1) = -291[/tex]
The 60th term of the sequence is -291.

0. Folded boxes a. Squares with sides of length x are cut out of each corner of a rectangular piece of cardboard measuring 5 ft by 8 ft. The resulting piece of cardboard is then folded into a box without a lid. Find the volume of the largest box that can be formed in this way. b. Squares with sides of length x are cut out of each corner of a square piece of cardboard with sides of length /. Find the volume of the largest open box that can be formed in this way.
Answer:
Box dimensions:
L = 3 ft
D = 6 ft
H = 1 ft
Volume V = 18 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Each side of the future box is
L = 5 - 2*x D = 8 - 2*x
height of the box is x
Then the volume of the box as function of x is:
V(x) = ( 5 - 2*x ) * ( 8 - 2*x ) * x
V(x) = ( 40 - 10*x - 16*x + 4*x² ) * x
V(x) = 40*x - 26*x² + 4*x³
Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation:
V´(x) = 40 - 52*x + 12x² or V´(x) = 20 - 26*x + 6*x²
If V´(x) = 0
6*x² - 26*x + 20 = 0
Solving for x
x₁,₂ = (-b ± √ b² - 4*a*c ] /2*a
x₁,₂ = ( 26 ± √ 676 - 480 ) / 12
x₁,₂ = (26 ± 14 )/ 12
x₁ = 1
x₂ = 3,33 ( we dismiss this solution since is not feasible according to cardboard dimensions )
Then the sides of the box are:
L = 5 -2*x L = 5 - 2*1 L = 3 ft
D = 8 - 2*x D = 8 - 2*1 D = 6 ft
H = x = 1 ft
And the volume is V = 6*3*1 = 18 ft³
