Answer:
a is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
1² + 3² + 4² + 4(n - 1)² = ¹/₃n(2n - 1)(2n + 1)
1² + 3² + 4² + (2n - 2)² = ¹/₃n(2n - 1)(2n + 1)
1 + 9 + 16 + (2n - 2)(2n - 2) = ¹/₃n(2n(2n + 1) - 1(2n + 1))
10 + 16 + (2n(2n - 2) - 2(2n - 2)) = ¹/₃n(2n(2n) + 2n(1) - 1(2n) - 1(1) 16 + (2n(2n) - 2n(2) - 2(2n) + 2(2)) = ¹/₃n(4n² + 2n - 2n - 1)
26 + (4n² - 4n - 4n + 4) = ¹/₃n(4n² - 1)
26 + (4n² - 8n + 4) = ¹/₃n(4n² - 1)
26 + 4n² - 8n + 4 = ¹/₃n(4n²) - ¹/₃n(1)
4n² - 8n + 4 + 26 = 1¹/₃n³ - ¹/₃n
4n² - 8n + 30 = 1¹/₃n³ - ¹/₃n
+ ¹/₃n + ¹/₃n
4n² - 7²/₃n + 30 = 1¹/₃n³
-1¹/₃n³ + 4n² - 7²/₃n + 30 = 0
-3(-1¹/₃n³ + 4n² - 7²/₃n + 30) = -3(0)
-3(-1¹/₃n³) - 3(4n²) - 3(-7²/₃n) - 3(30) = 0
4n³ - 12n² + 23n - 90 = 0
Because zero is neither positive nor negative, the term nonnegative is sometimes used to refer to a number that is either positive or zero, while nonpositive is used to refer to a number that is either negative or zero. Zero is a neutral number.
Answer:
Statements 2, 3 and 4 are true.
Step-by-step explanation:
2. < 1 and < 4 are alternate interior angles.
3. < 3 and < 6 are vertical angles.
4. There are 2 sets of alternate angles so the triangles are similar (< 1 and <4, and <2 and <5).
