help me understand this plzz, no file just answer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a(n)= a + (n - 1)d

a(n) = 17 - 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

14, 11, 8 , 5 , ...

The given sequence above is an Arithmetic sequence and the explicit formula is given as:

a(n) = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a = First term = 14

n = number of terms

d = common difference

The common difference =

Second term - First term or Third term - Second term

= 11 - 14 or 8 - 11 or 5 - 8

= -3

Therefore, the explicit formula for the nth term a(n) is written as:

a(n) = 14 + (n - 1)-3

a(n) = 14 -3n + 3

a(n) = 14 + 3 - 3n

a(n) = 17 - 3n

The explicit formula a(n) =

a(n) = 17 - 3n

a number times 12 is 72. which equation fits this statement?

Answers

Answer:

12x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

So, this is a standard variable equation, so a number (I did x because I'm basic) times, multiplied by, whatever 12 = 72

So a number times 12 is 72 = 12x = 17

Now, if you wanted to actually solve this equation, you just have to do inverse operations:

17 ÷ 12 = 1.4167 (rounded)

So x = 1.4167

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that [tex] \sqrt 3 - \sqrt 5[/tex] is a rational number.

So, it can be expressed in the form of [tex] \frac{p}{q} [/tex] where p and q are integers.

[tex]\therefore \sqrt 3 - \sqrt 5=\frac{p}{q}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore \sqrt 3 =\frac{p}{q}+ \sqrt 5[/tex]

[tex]\therefore \sqrt 3 =\frac{p+q\sqrt 5}{q}[/tex]

Squaring both sides:

[tex] (\sqrt 3) ^2 =\bigg(\frac{p+q\sqrt 5}{q}\bigg ) ^2 [/tex]

[tex]\therefore 3 =\frac{p^2 +5q^2 +2\sqrt 5 pq}{q^2 } [/tex]

[tex]\therefore 3q^2 ={p^2 +5q^2 +2\sqrt 5 pq}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore 0 = p^2 +5q^2 -3q^2 +2\sqrt 5 pq [/tex]

[tex]\therefore - 2\sqrt 5 pq=p^2 +2q^2 [/tex]

[tex]\therefore \sqrt 5 = \bigg (\frac{p^2 +2q^2}{-2pq} \bigg) [/tex]

[tex]\therefore \sqrt 5 = - \bigg(\frac{p^2 +2q^2}{2pq} \bigg) [/tex]

Since, p and q are integers so [tex] - \bigg(\frac{p^2 +2q^2}{2pq} \bigg) [/tex] is rational.

[tex]\therefore \sqrt 5 [/tex] is also rational.

But it contradicts the fact that [tex]\sqrt 5 [/tex] is irrational.

Hence, our assumption that [tex] \sqrt 3 - \sqrt 5[/tex] is rational is wrong.

[tex] \therefore \sqrt 3 - \sqrt 5[/tex] is irrational.

The area of the triangle on a coordinate plane is 3 square units option (B) 3 square units is correct.

What is the triangle?

In terms of geometry, the triangle is a three-sided polygon with three edges and three vertices. The triangle's interior angles add up to 180°.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We have a triangle on a coordinate plane shown in the picture.

Triangle ABC has vertices A, B, and C at  (0, 0), (3, 4), and (3, 2).

         

As we know, the area of the triangle is given by:

Area = (1/2)heightxbase length

Or

Area = (1/2)ADxBC

Area = (1/2)3x2

Area = (6/2)

Area = 3 square units

Thus, the area of the triangle on a coordinate plane is 3 square units option (B) 3 square units is correct.

It's a question of trigonometry.

You need to remember that tangent (tan) stands for Perpendicular / Base.

So, tan P = QR / PR

By Pythagoras Theorem,

34² = 30² + x²

x² = 34² - 30²

x² = 1156 - 900

x² = 256

x = 16

Now, placing the values,

tan P = 30 / 16

tan P = 1.875

A circle is centered on point B. Points A, C and D lie on its circumference.
If ZABC measures 40°, what does ZADC measure?

Answers

Given:

A circle is centered on point B.

Points A, C and D lie on its circumference.

If [tex]m\angle ABC[/tex] measures 40°.

To find:

The [tex]m\angle ADC[/tex].

Solution:

Central angle theorem: According to this theorem, the central angle is equal to the twice of inscribed angle on the same intercepted arc.

In the given figure [tex]\angle ABC[/tex] is the central angle and [tex]m\angle ADC[/tex] is the inscribed angle on the same arc AC.

Using central angle theorem, we get

[tex]m\angle ABC=2m\angle ADC[/tex]

[tex]40^\circ=2m\angle ADC[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{40^\circ}{2}=m\angle ADC[/tex]

[tex]20^\circ=m\angle ADC[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of angle ADC is 20°.
