Jilliyn is four years younger than Romeo. Romeo is five years older than Aeneas. Aeneas is ⅖ of Catherine’s age. The sum of their ages is 28. Write and solve an algebraic equation to find their ages.

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice

answer: x=3 and y=4

step-by-step explanation:

(a) common ratio in the given sequence is, 3

(b) push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week

step-by-step explanation:

geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers that follows a pattern were the next term is found by multiplying by a constant called the common ratio(r)

(a)

given the sequence: 6 , 18 , 54 , 162 ,

this sequence is geometric sequence where each term is 3 times the previous term.

therefore,

common ratio(r) = 3.

(b)

a formula for nth term of geometric sequence is given by;

,   where r is the common ratio between the successive terms and is the first term,

to find how many push ups will kendall do on the 20th week.

here. n = 20th term.

in the given sequence first term

then;

simplify:

therefore, push ups will do kendall do on the 20th week
