Answer:

(5,0) and (-2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the x intercept, the y value has to be zero, this automatically eliminates several of the options. What you can do is plug in 0 for y and see what the answer is. If you get stuck, you can also guess and check.

Which of the following is the solution to 3/x + 2/(x+1) = 3/5x?

sergey [27]

Answer:

3/x + 2/(x+1) = 3/5x

[3 · 5(x + 1) + 2 · 5x] / 5x(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) / 5x(x + 1)

3 · 5(x + 1) + 2 · 5x = 3(x + 1)

15x + 15 + 10x = 3x + 3

15x + 10x - 3x = -15 + 3

22x = -12

x = -12/22 = -6/11

The sun shines at a 60∘ angle to the ground. A flagpole is 20 feet tall. If you are trying to find the length of the shadow cast

almond37 [142]

Answer: From the 60° angle, the flagpole is the opposite side and the shadow is the adjacent side of the triangle.

tangent 60° = opposite/adjacent

tan 60° = 20/x

multiply both sides by x and you have

x · tan60° = 20

divide both sides by tan 60° and you have

x = 20/tan60°

x = 11.5 ft.

PLEASE HELP!!<br><br> what is the explicit formula for this sequence -7, -4, -1, 2, 5

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The explicit formula for the given expression is $a_n=-10+3n$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

-7, -4, -1, 2, 5

The difference between two consecutive terms is same, therefore the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The first term of the given AP is -7 and the common difference is

$-4-(-7)=-4+7=3$

The explicit formula for an AP is

$a_n=a+(n-1)d$

Where, a is first term, d is common difference and n is number of terms.

Substitute a=-7 and d=3 in the above equation.

$a_n=-7+(n-1)3$

$a_n=-7+3n-3$

$a_n=-10+3n$

Therefore the explicit formula for the given expression is $a_n=-10+3n$ .
