Answer:

HJ = 8  JE = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that H is the midpoint of GE and J is the midpoint of FE. According to the midpoint theorem the line segment connecting the midpoint of two sides is parallel to the three side and its length is half of the third side. since JH is connecting the midpoints.

HJ= 1/2 (GF)

x + 3 = 1/2 (4x - 4)

x + 3 = 2x - 2

x = 5

^ Thus meaning the value of x is 5.

Now you just fill into your equations:

HJ = x + 3 = (5)  + 3 = 8

JE = x - 1 = (5) - 1 = 4

Therefore, HJ = 8; JE = 4.

The first term of a finite geometric series is 6 and the last term is 4374. The sum of all the term os 6558. find the common rat
Oliga [24]

A geometric series is written as ar^n, where a is the first term of the series and r is the common ratio.

In other words, to compute the next term in the series you have to multiply the previous one by r.

Since we know that the first time is 6 (but we don't know the common ratio), the first terms are

6, 6r, 6r^2, 6r^3, 6r^4, 6r^5, \ldots.

Let's use the other information, since the last term is 4374 > 6, we know that r>1, otherwise the terms would be bigger and bigger.

The information about the sum tells us that

\displaystyle \sum_{i=0}^n 6r^i = 6\sum_{i=0}^n r^i = 6558

We have a formula to compute the sum of the powers of a certain variable, namely

\displaystyle \sum_{i=0}^n r^i = \cfrac{r^{n+1}-1}{r-1}

So, the equation becomes

6\cfrac{r^{n+1}-1}{r-1} = 6558

The only integer solution to this expression is n=6, r=3.

If you want to check the result, we have

6+6*3+6*3^2+6*3^3+6*3^4+6*3^5+6*3^6 = 6558

and the last term is

6*3^6 = 4374

During batting practice, two pop flies are hit from the same location, 2 s apart. The paths are modeled by the equations h = -16
jolli1 [7]
To find the time at which both balls are at the same height, set the equations equal to each other then solve for t.
h = -16t^2 + 56t
h = -16t^2 + 156t - 248
-16t^2 + 56t = -16t^2 + 156t - 248
You can cancel out the -16t^2's to get
56t = 156t - 248
=> 0 = 100t - 248
=> 248 = 100t
=> 2.48 = t
Using this time value, plug into either equation to find the height.
h = 16(2.48)^2 + 56(2.48)
Final answer:
h = 40.4736
Hope I helped :)
