A mouse climbs up a well of 86 meters. It advances 14 meters during the night, but during the day it retreats 2. The mouse will reach the surface on the day:
Step-by-step explanation:
we assume day and night are equally long.
and the mouse will start at night of day 1.
then, on day 2, it will first retreat 2 meters (during daylight) and then advance 14 meters (at night).
so, on every full day, the mouse will effectively advance 12 meters (-2 + 14 = 12).
with a starting value of 14 (the first night).
so, we are getting an arithmetic sequence
an = an-1 + c
c = 12 in our case.
a1 = 14
a2 = a1 + 12 = 14+12 = 26
a3 = a2 + 12 = a1 + 12 + 12 = 14 + 2×12 = 38
an = a1 + (n-1)×12 = 14 + 12(n-1)
at what n will it reach 86 ?
86 = 14 + 12(n-1) = 14 + 12n - 12 = 2 + 12n
84 = 12n
n = 7
so, on the 7th day the mouse will reach the surface (if we truly count the first starting night day 1 - this is up to your teacher, but I would).

Using two or more complete sentences, describe how to find the general rule for the geometric sequence with a4=3 and a6=3/16. In your final answer, include all of your calculations.
The steps for the geometry sequence with the help of two terms of the sequence, make a system of equation and solve them to find common ratio and first term.
What is geometric sequence?
Geometric sequence is the sequence in which the next term is obtained by multiplying the previous term with the same number for the whole series.
It can be given as,
[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]
Here, a₁ is the first term of the sequence and r is the common ratio.
The fourth term and sixth term given in for the geometric sequence are 3 and 3/16. For the fourth term,
[tex]a_4=a_1r^{4-1}\\3=a_1r^3[/tex] ...1
For the sixth term,
[tex]a_6=a_1r^{6-1}\\\dfrac{3}{16}=a_1r^5[/tex] ....2
On solving, we get, a₁=192 and r=1/4. Thus, the geometric sequence can be given as,
[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\\a_n=192\times\dfrac{1}{4}^{n-1}[/tex]
Hence, the steps for the geometry sequence with the help of two terms of the sequence, make a system of equation and solve them to find common ratio and first term.

A triangle has side lengths of 7 inches, 12 inches, and c inches. Enter values to write an inequality that describes the possible values for c, the length of the third side of the triangle.
Answer:
The inequality is: 5<c<19
Length of third side "c" can have values greater than 5 but less than 19
Solution:
Given that,
Length of two sides of triangle are 7 inches and 12 inches respectively
Let the length of third side be "c"
The Triangle Inequality Theorem, states that, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side
So we get a inequality as:
Case 1:
Sum of length of two sides of triangle > length of third side
Rewrite,
Case 2:
Let 12 inches be the length of third side
Sum of sides of length 7 and c > 12
Therefore from case 1 and case 2,
Which can be combined,
Therefore the possible values of "c" are:
"c" can have values greater than 5 but less than 19

A rhombus is a quadrilateral whose all sides are of equal length. The measure of the ∠QPR is 42°.
What is a Rhombus?A rhombus is a quadrilateral whose all sides are of equal length, and the opposite are parallel to each other.
The diagonals of a rhombus intersect each other at 90°. Therefore, the measure of ∠QTR can be written as,
∠QTR = 90°
(6y+6) = 90°
6y = 90 - 6
6y = 84
y = 14
Also, the diagonals of the rhombus divide the angle into two equal angles, therefore,
∠QPR = ∠SPR
∠QPR = 3y
∠QPR = 3(14)
∠QPR = 42°
Hence, the measure of the ∠QPR is 42°.

2. What is the new correction equation using the Equal Values Method for the following system below?
y=2x+1
y = 6-3x
Answer:
new equation: 2x +1 = 6 -3x
solution: (x, y) = (1, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Equal Values Method of solving a system of equations has you equate the two expressions that are equal to the same variable or expression. Here, we have two expressions that are equal to y.
equationThe next step is to set them equal to each other:
2x +1 = 6 -3x
__
solutionThis equation can be solved by adding 3x -1 to both sides to get ...
5x = 5
Then dividing both sides by 5 gives ...
x = 1
Substituting into either expression for y gives its value:
y = 2x +1 = 2(1) +1 = 3
The solution to the system is (x, y) = (1, 3).

What is the value of y on question 7
The value of y in the given question will be y = -2x + 26.
What is an equation?It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
The value of y will be calculated as:-
Given the equation :-
4y - 2x = 12
y = x / 2 + 12
Now for two perpendicular lines, the product of the intercepts is -1
m₁ x m₂ = -1
So the new intercept will be
m₂ = -1 / m₁ = -1 / 1 / 2 = -2
So new equation will be
y = -2x + c
2 = -2 x 12 + c
c = 26
So the equation will be:-
y = -2x + 26
Therefore the value of y in the given question will be y = -2x + 26.

in a class of 32 students there are 8 girls who played basket ball and 5 boys who did not
(a) 12 boys play basketball
(b) See figure 2 below
==========================================================
Explanation:
Part (a)
You are on the right track so far when you wrote the partial table.
There are 15 girls in the class, and 8 girls that play basketball. That must mean 15-8 = 7 girls do not play basketball.
Focusing on the first row only, we'll have 7 go in the second column and 15 go in the third column. The first row is filled out entirely.
There are 32 students and 15 girls. This means there are 32-15 = 17 boys. We'll write 17 at the end of the second row.
The other missing value of this row is 17-5 = 12 to represent the number of boys who play basketball. This is because of the 5 boys that don't play basketball.
To fill out the missing items in the third row, add the columns straight down.
We have 8+12 = 20 basketball players and 7+5 = 12 people who do not play basketball. Notice how 20+12 = 32 along the bottom row to help confirm the correct values.
Check out figure 1 to see the entire two-way frequency table.
We see that there are 12 boys that play basketball.
------------------------------------------------
Part (b)
The previous part detailed how to set up the two-way frequency table.
For this part, we'll be creating the two-way relative frequency table. The keyword "relative" means that we'll divide each item by the grand total 32.
For instance, in the first row & first column we have 8/32 = 0.25; do the same with the other values. Do not round. The reason for this is because each decimal item is a terminal decimal, meaning the digits stop at some point. If your teacher instructs you to round, then be sure to follow those instructions of course.
Check out figure 2 so you can see the two-way relative frequency table.
A result like 0.25 in the first row & first column tells us that 25% of the class is a girl and plays basketball.

If the first number is increased by 7 and the second number is reduced by 6 times, the sum of these numbers is 29.
If the first number is reduced by 5 and the second number is increased 2 times, the difference between the second and first number is 9.
Find these numbers.
Answer:
First number = 20
Second number = 12
Explanation:
Let the 1st number be x
Let the 2nd number be y
=====================
Condition 1
[tex]\sf \rightarrow x + 7 + \dfrac{y}{6} = 29[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow \sf x=-\dfrac{y}{6}+22[/tex]
=====================
Condition 2
[tex]\rightarrow \sf 2y - (x - 5) = 9[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow \sf x = 2y -4[/tex]
=====================
Substitute equations
[tex]\rightarrow \sf -\dfrac{y}{6}+22 = 2y-4[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow \sf y=12[/tex]
=====================
Find value of 1st number
[tex]\rightarrow \sf x = 2y - 4[/tex]
[tex]\sf \rightarrow x = 2(12) - 4[/tex]
[tex]\rightarrow \sf x = 20[/tex]
