Answer:

- 5, 2, 9, 16 and d = + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

to obtain the first four terms substitute n = 2, 3, 4 into the recursive formula

f(1) = - 5 ← given

f(2) = f(1) + 7 = - 5 + 7 = 2

f(3) = f(2) + 7 = 2 + 7 = 9

f(4) = f(3) + 7 = 9 + 7 = 16

common difference d = 16 - 9 = 9 - 2 = 2 - (- 5) = 7

Which of these cannot represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle?
Sholpan [36]
<h3>Answer: Choice D. 8m, 9m, 10m</h3>

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

Explanation:

If a = 8 and b = 9 are the two legs of a triangle and c = 10 is the hypotenuse, then

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

8^2 + 9^2 = 10^2

64 + 81 = 100

145 = 100

We get a false equation as 145 and 100 are two different values. So the original equation is false when (a,b,c) = (8,9,10)

By the converse of the pythagorean theorem, we have proven that this particular triangle is not a right triangle

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

Contrast this with something like choice A where we have a = 3, b = 4, c = 5 leading to

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

9 + 16 = 25

25 = 25

we get a true equation so a triangle with sides 3,4,5 is a right triangle. Choices B and C follow a similar path.

What is one tenth of two hundred
matrenka [14]
First you have to convert 1/10 into a decimal:
1/10= 0.1
Multiply 0.1 by 200:
0.1x200=20
So, 20 is 1/10 of 200.
