$t_{10} = -22 \ \text{ and } S_{10} = -85$

========================================================

Explanation:

$t_1 = \text{first term} = 5\\t_2 = \text{first term}-3 = t_1 - 3 = 5-3 = 2$

Note we subtract 3 off the previous term (t1) to get the next term (t2). Each new successive term is found this way

$t_3 = t_2 - 3 = 2-3 = -1\\t_4 = t_3 - 3 = -1-3 = -4$

and so on. This process may take a while to reach $t_{10}$

There's a shortcut. The nth term of any arithmetic sequence is

$t_n = t_1+d(n-1)$

We plug in $t_1 = 5 \text{ and } d = -3$ and simplify

$t_n = t_1+d(n-1)\\t_n = 5+(-3)(n-1)\\t_n = 5-3n+3\\t_n = -3n+8$

Then we can plug in various positive whole numbers for n to find the corresponding $t_n$ value. For example, plug in n = 2

$t_n = -3n+8\\t_2 = -3*2+8\\t_2 = -6+8\\t_2 = 2$

which matches with the second term we found earlier. And,

$tn = -3n+8\\t_{10} = -3*10+8\\t_{10} = -30+8\\t_{10} = \boldsymbol{-22} \ \textbf{ is the tenth term}$

---------------------

The notation $S_{10}$ refers to the sum of the first ten terms $t_1, t_2, \ldots, t_9, t_{10}$

We could use either the long way or the shortcut above to find all $t_1$ through $t_{10}$ . Then add those values up. Or we can take this shortcut below.

$Sn = \text{sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic sequence}\\S_n = (n/2)*(t_1+t_n)\\S_{10} = (10/2)*(t_1+t_{10})\\S_{10} = (10/2)*(5-22)\\S_{10} = 5*(-17)\\\boldsymbol{S_{10} = -85}$

The sum of the first ten terms is -85

-----------------------

As a check for $S_{10}$ , here are the first ten terms:

t1 = 5
t2 = 2
t3 = -1
t4 = -4
t5 = -7
t6 = -10
t7 = -13
t8 = -16
t9 = -19
t10 = -22

Then adding said terms gets us...

5 + 2 + (-1) + (-4) + (-7) + (-10) + (-13) + (-16) + (-19) + (-22) = -85

This confirms that $S_{10} = -85$ is correct.

What is x?<br><br> 3x - 4 + 1 = - 2x - 5 + 5x

ehidna [41]

3x - 4 + 1 = -2x - 5 + 5x

First, simplify 3x - 4 + 1 to 3x - 3. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 3 = -3x - 5 + 5x
Second, simplify -2x - 5 + 5x to 3x - 5. / Your problem should look like: 3x - 3 = 3x - 5
Third, cancel 3x on both sides. / Your problem should look like: -3 = -5
Fourth, since -3 = -5 is false, there is no solution.

Answer: No solution

A room with a length of 270 cm and width 150 cm is to be covered with square tiles .What is the largest size of tiles to be used

Damm [24]

Find the greatest common factor of both numbers:

Factors for 150:

150: 1, 2, 5 , 6, 10, 15, 25, 30, 50, 75, 150

Factors for 270:

1, 2, 3, 5, 6 , 9, 10, 15, 18, 27, 30, 45, 54, 90, 135, 270

The largest number they both have in common is 30, so the largest tile could be 30 cm^2.

6a-1÷7=4. . . . . . . . . . .. . .

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

a=29/42

Step-by-step explanation:

6a-1÷7=4

first write the division as a fraction

6a-1/7=4

add 1/7 to each side

6a=4+1/7

which is equal to

6a=29/7

divide both sides by 6

a=29/42

Find the missing side lengths leave your answer as a racials simplest form

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

m= $7\sqrt3$

n=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a right triangle (notice the 90°) angle, the measure of one of the acute angles as 60°, and the measure of the hypotenuse (the side OPPOSITE from the 90 degree angle) as 14

We need to find the lengths of m and n

Firstly, let's find the measure of the other acute angle

The acute angles in a right triangle are complementary, meaning they add up to 90 degrees

Let's make the measure of the unknown acute angle x

So x+60°=90°

Subtract 60 from both sides

x=30°

So the measure of the other acute angle is 30 degrees

This makes the right triangle a special kind of right triangle, a 30°-60°-90° triangle

In a 30°-60°-90° triangle, if the length of the hypotenuse is a, then the length of the leg (the side that makes up the right angle) opposite from the 30 degree angle is $\frac{a}{2}$ , and the leg opposite from the 60 degree angle is $\frac{a\sqrt3}{2}$

In this case, a=14, n= $\frac{a}{2}$ , and m= $\frac{a\sqrt3}{2}$

Now substitute the value of a into the formulas to find n and m to find the lengths of those sides

So that means that n= $\frac{14}{2}$ , which is equal to 7

And m= $\frac{14\sqrt3}{2}$ , which simplified, is equal to $7\sqrt3$

Hope this helps!
