Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a common ratio between consecutive terms , that is

9 ÷ - 3 = - 27 ÷ 9 = 81 ÷ - 27 = - 3

this indicates the sequence is geometric.

the recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by multiplying the previous term by the common ratio r , that is

f(n) = - 3f(n - 1) if n > 1 : f(1) = - 3

Find the sizes of unknow angles of this triangle

Volgvan

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

To determine to measure of the unknown angle, be sure to use the total sum of 180°. If two angles are given, add them together and then subtract from 180°. If two angles are the same and unknown, subtract the known angle from 180° and then divide by 2.

Answer:

Probability that the measure of a segment is greater than 3 = 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given attachment,

AB ≅ BC, AC ≅ CD and AD = 12

Therefore, AC ≅ CD = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{AD})$

= 6 units

Since AC ≅ CD

AB + BC ≅ CD

2(AB) = 6

AB = 3 units

Now we have measurements of the segments as,

AB = BC = 3 units

AC = CD = 6 units

AD = 12 units

Total number of segments = 5

Length of segments more than 3 = 3

Probability to pick a segment measuring greater than 3,

= $\frac{\text{Total number of segments measuring greater than 3}}{Total number of segments}$

= $\frac{3}{5}$

= 0.6

How to do question 5 and 6. Can you explain the first one which is A for 5 and 6?<br><br>Thank you

Illusion [34]

for 6

in a

given

slope(m)=1

point=(2,-4)=(x1,y1)

we know

equation of straight line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+4=1(x-2)

y+4=x-2

therefore x-y-6=0 is the required equation

substituting with ax+by+c=0 we get

a=1

b= -1

c= -6
