A linear sequence starts a+3b a+7b a+11b the 2nd term has value 19 the 5th term has value 67 work out the values of a and b

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a = -9[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sequence: a+3b, a+7b, a+11b

2nd term = 19

5th term = 67

Required

Find a and b

First, the 5th term needs to be calculated;

Using formula for Arithmetic Progression (AP), the formula goes thus

[tex]T_n = T_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex]

Where n = 5

T_1 = a + 3b ------------ FIrst term

[tex]d = T_2 - T_1 or T_3 - T_2[/tex] --- Difference between two successive terms

[tex]d = a + 7b - (a + 3b)[/tex]

[tex]d = a + 7b -a - 3b[/tex]

[tex]d = a - a + 7b - 3b[/tex]

[tex]d = 4b[/tex]

So, [tex]T_n = T_1 + (n - 1)d[/tex] becomes

[tex]T_5 = a + 3b + (5 - 1)4b[/tex]

[tex]T_5 = a + 3b + (4)4b[/tex]

[tex]T_5 = a + 3b + 16b[/tex]

[tex]T_5 = a + 19b[/tex]

Now that we have values for 2nd and 5th term;

From the second, T2 = 19 and T5 = 67

This gives

[tex]a + 7b = 19[/tex] --- Equation 1

[tex]a + 19b = 67[/tex] ---- Equation 2

Make a the subject of formula in (1)

[tex]a = 19 - 7b[/tex]

Substitute these values in equation 1

[tex]a + 19b = 67[/tex] becomes

[tex]19 - 7b + 19b = 67[/tex]

[tex]19 + 12b = 67[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]12b= 67 - 19[/tex]

[tex]12b = 48[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12

[tex]\frac{12b}{12} = \frac{48}{12}[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

Recall that b = 4

Substitute a = 19 - 7b and nothing will hire

[tex]a = 19 - 7(4)[/tex]

[tex]a = 19 - 28[/tex]

[tex]a = -9[/tex]

Hence, the values of a and b are -9 and 4 respectively.

Answer 2
Answer:
a= - 9
b= 4
Step-by-step explanation:

From +3b to 7b it's add 4 (so I used this rule to find the next 2 terms.)

4rd term is a + 15b
5 term is a + 19b = 67

create a simultaneous equation between the 2nd & 5th term - since, we know what it's equal to.
a + 19b = 67
a +7b = 19
(same signs/operation of + so subtract to cancel a)

a-a =0
19b - 7b = 12b
67 - 19 =48


0 + 12b = 48
÷12 both sides
b = 4

Substitute, b= 4 into one equation(either from the 2nd or 5th term equation):

a+ 7b=19
a + 7 x 4 = 19
a + 28 = 19
- 28
a= - 9

Answer:

The answer is x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First you need to distribute the 3/4 * (x + 8). This looks like (3/4) * (x) + (3/4) * (8) = 9

2. Next you simplify the distributed equation, 3/4x + 6 = 9

3. Now subtract 6 from both sides, 3/4x = 3

4. Multiply both sides by 4/3, 4/x * 3/4x = 3 * 4/3

Answer:

Correct option: First one -> Hexagonal prism

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure we have two hexagons and six rectangles. If we fold each part correctly, we can use the two hexagons as horizontal bases of a prism, and the six rectangles would be the sides of the prism (each rectangle connected to one side of lower hexagon and one side of upper hexagon).

So the figure created would be a hexagonal prism.

Answers

Answer: A circle divided into 10 equal parts with 8 parts shaded

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, there are a lot of words here so lets write them down as fractions so its easier to compare.

A circle divided into 5 parts with 1 part shaded = 1/5

A circle divided into 10 parts with 5 parts shaded = 5/10

A circle divided into 6 parts with 2 parts shaded = 1/3

A circle divided into 10 parts with 8 parts shaded = 8/10

Okay so looking at this we can see that they don't have a common denominator so lets fix that

1/5 = 6/30

5/10 = 15/30

1/3 = 10/30

8/10 = 24/30

3/5 = 18/30

Now lets find which one is greater than 3/5

Only the 24/30 one is greater, and looking back that is the circle divided into 10 parts with 8 of them shaded.

Answer:

c. The graph has no​ x-intercepts.

There are three possible roots of a quadratic function

Complex rootsDistinct real rootsRepeated real roots

When [tex]\mathbf{b^2 - 4ac > 0}[/tex], it means that:

The function has distinct real roots

In other words, the function has 2 different values of x

This implies that,

The function crosses the x-axis two times

When the function cross the x-axis, it means that the function has an x-intercept

Hence, the conclusion is:

Answer:

Option (B).

Step-by-step explanation:

Option (a). {(1, 2), (3, 4), (4, 5), (6, 7)}

Since in every ordered pair value of x corresponds a distinct value of y.

The given ordered pairs represent one-to-one function.

Option (b). {(0, 3), (1, 5), (3, 9), (1, 13)}

In the ordered pairs (1, 5) and (1, 13) value of x correspond to the two different values of y.

Therefore, its not a function.

Option (c). {(-2, 2), (-3, 3), (-4, -4), (-5, -5)}

For every value of x there is distinct value of y.

Therefore, given set of ordered pairs represent a one to one function.

what is the slope of the equation y= 5/4c- 7/4

Answers

Answer:

5/4 is the slope

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 5/4c- 7/4

This is in the slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

5/4 is the slope and -7/4 is the y intercept

Answer:

5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation is in slope intercept form (y=mx=b) so when interpreting the information we see that the slope is 5/4.

y = y

m = slope

x = x or in this case they use c

b = y intercept

This equation represents a line that intercepts at -7/4 and has a slope of 5/4. This can be checked by plugging in any point on the line for x and y.

Which equation represents circle C?

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the circle is

(x + 4)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 162

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to give the correct equation of the circle.

The center of the circle is (-4,1)

Now the other parameter we need to show the equation of the circle is the radius of the circle and this can be obtained from the distance between the circle center and a point on the circumference.

We use the distance formula to calculate this.

So the distance we want to calculate is the distance between;

(-4,1) and (5,-8)

using the distance formula, we have

d = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2

Substituting these values, we have;

d = √(5 + 4)^2 + (-8-1)^2

d = √(9^2 + 9^2)

d = √(162)

d = 9 √2 units

The formula for the equation of a circle is

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

where (h,k) are coordinates of the center which is (-4,1) in this question

The way of the circle is thus,

(x-(-4)^2 + (y-1)^2 = {9√(2)}^2

(x + 4)^2 + (y-1)^2 = 162

Answers

Answer:

x ≈ 17.67 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² = 16² + 7.5² = 256 + 56.25 = 312.25 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = [tex]\sqrt{312.25}[/tex] ≈ 17.67 ( to 2 dec. places )

The measure of hypotenuse length x would be 17.67 cm

What is Pythagoras Theorem?

If ABC is a triangle with AC as the hypotenuse and angle B with 90 degrees then we have:

|AC|² = |AB|² + |BC|²  

where |AB| = length of line segment AB. (AB and BC are rest of the two sides of that triangle ABC, AC being the hypotenuse).

Using the Pythagoras' identity in the right angled triangle.

hypotenuse²  = perpendicular²  + base²

x² = 16² + 7.5²

x²= 256 + 56.25

x²= 312.25

Now take the square root of both sides

x = √312.25

x =  ≈ 17.67 ( to 2 dec. places )

Therefore, the measure of hypotenuse length x would be 17.67 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for m∠QSR.

Given:

m∠TSR (Total of the two angles) =  70

m∠QST = 2x

m∠QSR = 3x - 10

Set the two angles equal to the total measurement of angles:

2x + 3x - 10 = 70

Simplify. Combine like terms. Add 2x & 3x:

2x + 3x = 5x

5x - 10 = 70

Next, isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, add 10 to both sides:

5x - 10 = 70

5x - 10 (+10) = 70 (+10)

5x = 70 + 10

5x = 80

Next, divide 5 from both sides:

(5x)/5 = (80)/5

x = 80/5

x = 16

Then, plug in 16 for x in the expression given. Remember you are solving for m∠QSR.

m∠QSR = 3x - 10

m∠QSR = 3(16) - 10

m∠QSR = 48 - 10

m∠QSR = 38

C) 38 is your answer.

Also, if you observe the linear graph, you would see that the line represents a negative rate of change, because the line is going down (the function is decreasing). In other words, as x-variable increases, y-variable decreases.
