Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):
x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number. x+9 = 10, so x = 9.
Think of it this way: there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.
Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.
The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:
sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55 (answer)
Answer:
the answer is 9271
Step-by-step explanation:
if 7300 is 73%, then you need to add 27% to get 100% which is 9271
Distance = speed rate x time
Speed rate = 120 miles per hour
Time = 3 hours
Replacing:
D = 120 mph x 3 h = 360 miles
Trig ratios can only be used on right triangles with acute measures.
If given an angle and there are adjacent and opposite sides, then use tan(opposite/adjacent)
If given an angle and there is an adjacent side and a hypotenuse, then use cosine(adjacent/hypotenuse)
If given an angle and there is an opposite and adjacent side, then use sin(opposite/hypotenuse)
A common mnemonic device used to memorize the trig rules is SOH-CAH-TOA
