the sum of 2 positive integers is 10. the difference of their reciprocals is 3/8. find both positive integers

The 2 integers would be: 2 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 8 = 10

Reciprocal of 2: 1/2

Reciprocal of 8: 1/8

1 / 2 - 1 / 8 = 4/8 - 1/8 = 3/8

step-by-step explanation: s

(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
