= 4 13/27
= 121/27
Answer 2

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Geometric series : 3 , 1 , [tex]\frac{1}{3}\:,\:\frac{1}{9}\:,\:\frac{1}{27}[/tex]

To find: Sum of the series.

First term of the geometric series, a = 3

Common ration of the Geometric series, r = [tex]\frac{second\:term}{first\:term}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Sum of the finite Geometric series , [tex]S_n=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}[/tex]

Sum of the given 5 term term of given series , [tex]S_5=\frac{3(1-(\frac{1}{3})^5)}{1-\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{3(\frac{3^5-1}{3^5})}{\frac{3-1}{3}}[/tex]

=  [tex]\frac{\frac{3^5-1}{3^3}}{2}=\frac{243-1}{2\times3^3}=\frac{121}{27}[/tex]

Therefore, Option B is correct.

Carolyn is building a pen for her dog. The perimeter of the pen is 52 ft
a) Explain how you can use a proportion to convert the perimeter into yards and feet.
b) The fencing material is sold by the yard. It costs 10.99 per yard. What is the cost of material before taxes

Answers

a) wouldn't you just divide it by 4?
b)52/3=17 1/3 17 1/3*10.99= 190.493333333...(you get the point)

Carolyn's dog pen with a 52 ft perimeter is approximately 17.33 yards in length. Fencing material costs $10.99 per yard, making the total cost before taxes around $190.44.

Carolyn is constructing a dog pen with a perimeter of 52 feet. To convert the perimeter from feet to yards, we can use the fact that 1 yard equals 3 feet. Since she is purchasing fencing material by the yard, Carolyn needs to know the total length of fencing in yards. This requires setting up a proportion:

1 yard / 3 feet = x yards / 52 feet

Multiplying both sides by 52 gives us x = 52 / 3 yards. Upon calculating, we find that the pen's perimeter is approximately 17.33 yards.

Since the fencing material costs $10.99 per yard, to find the total cost before taxes, we multiply the number of yards needed by the price per yard:
17.33 yards × $10.99/yard = $190.4367

The cost for the fencing materials before taxes is approximately $190.44.

There are 4000 grams in 40 hectograms.

To convert from hectograms to grams, you need to know that there are 100 grams in 1 hectogram.

Therefore, to find out how many grams are in 40 hectograms, you can use the conversion factor:

40 hectograms * 100 grams/hectogram = 4000 grams

So, there are 4000 grams in 40 hectograms.

The ratio of m∠PQR to m∠PQS is 5:9. What is m∠RQS?

80°

Answers

We Know, PQS = 90
Ratio of PQR / PQS = 5/9
PQR = 5/9 * 90 = 50

RQS = PQS - PQR
RQS = 90 - 50
RQS = 40

So, option B is your final answer

Hope this helps!
Let m<RQS be x, then 5/9 = (90 - x)/90
50 = 90 - x
x = 90 - 50 = 40
Therefore, m<RQS = 40°

A pack with 6 cans of juice costs 3.48. What it the unit price?
A.0.49 per can B.0.50 per can C.0.58 per can D.0.60 per can**my answer??**

Answers

The unit price of one can of juice, when a 6-pack costs $3.48, is $0.58 per can.

The question asks us to calculate the unit price of a juice can when a pack of 6 cans costs $3.48.

To find the unit price, we divide the total cost of the pack by the number of cans in a pack.

In this case, we divide $3.48 by 6, which gives us $0.58.

$3.48 / 6 = $0.58

Therefore, the unit price per can is $0.58.

Eric sells shirts. It costs him $100 to buy all the shirts and $10 to print designs on the shirts. Eric sells each shirt for $4. So far Eric has sold 20 shirts. Eric uses an equation to calculate his total profit.

What is the slope of the equation modeling this situation?

Answers

Y= 4(100+10) Because the slope is the total cost it is to make the shirts times what you made from the cost ($4)

To find the slope of the equation modeling Eric's situation, subtract the total cost from the selling price per shirt, resulting in a loss of $106 per shirt sold.

The slope of the equation modeling Eric's situation can be calculated as follows:

Profit per shirt = Selling price per shirt - Total cost per shirtProfit per shirt = $4 - ($100 + $10)Profit per shirt = $4 - $110 = -$106

The slope, which represents the profit per shirt, is -$106, indicating a loss of $106 for each shirt sold.

The area of a rectangle painiting is given by the trinomial x^2-9x-36. what are the possible dimensions of the painting ? use factoring

Answers

(x + 3) • (x - 12)

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .
The middle term is,  -9x  its coefficient is  -9 .
The last term, "the constant", is  -36 

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -36 = -36 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -36  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -9 .

     -36   +   1   =   -35     -18   +   2   =   -16     -12   +   3   =   -9   That's it


Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -12  and  3 
                     x2 - 12x + 3x - 36

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
                    x • (x-12)
              Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
                    3 • (x-12)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
                    (x+3)  •  (x-12)
             Which is the desired factorization

Final result : (x + 3) • (x - 12)

Final answer:

To rewrite expressions using only sin x and cos x, we can use trigonometric identities like [tex]cos 2x = 1 - 2sin^2 x[/tex] and sin 2x = 2sin x cos x. By applying these identities, we can simplify the given expressions.

Explanation:

To rewrite the given expressions using only sin x and cos x, we can use the following trigonometric identities:

[tex]cos 2x = 1 - 2sin^2 x[/tex]sin 2x = 2sin x cos x[tex]sin 3x = 3sin x - 4sin^3 x[/tex]

Using these identities, we can rewrite the expressions as follows:

cos 3x = [tex]4cos^3 x - 3cos x[/tex]cos x - 4cos x sin^2 x = cos x - 4sin x cos x sin x = [tex]cos x - 4sin^3 x cos x[/tex]-sin 3x + 2sin x cos x = [tex]-(4sin^3 x) + 2sin x cos x[/tex] = [tex]-4sin^3 x + 2sin x cos x[/tex]-sin 2x + 2sin x cos x = -2sin x cos x + 2sin x cos x = 0[tex]2sin^2 x cos x - 2sin x cos x[/tex] = 2sin x cos x (sin x - 1)

Answer:

The required inequality is [tex]11x + 8y \leq 600[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A donut shop is experimenting with two new types of cream-filled treats, one with raspberry filling, and the other with peach.

A batch of raspberry donuts cooks in 11 minutes while a batch of peach donuts cooks in only 8 minutes.  

Let x represent the number of raspberry-filled donuts and let y represent the number of peach-filled donuts.

To write : An inequality to represent how many batches of the new type of donuts can be produced in a 10 hour day.

Solution :

Time taken to cook the raspberry donuts = [tex]11x[/tex] minutes

Time taken to cook the peach donuts = [tex]8y[/tex] minutes

Donuts produced in 10 hours

1 hours = 60 minutes

10 hours = 60 × 10 = 600 minutes

Total time ≤ 600 minutes

Therefore, the required equation is

→ [tex]11x + 8y \leq 600[/tex]
