Answer:

15, 18, 21, 24, 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Five multiples of 3 means we have 5 terms we are adding together to = 105.

For the sake of having something to base each one of these terms on, let's say that the first term is 3.  It's not, but 3 is a multiple of 3 and we have to start somewhere.  These terms go up by the next number that is divisible by 3.  After 3, the next number that is divisible by 3 is 6.  The next one is 9, the next is 12, the last would be 15.

Let's then say that 3 is the first term, and we are going to say that is x.

To get from 3 to 6, we add 3.  Therefore, the second term is x + 3.

To get from 3 to 9, we add 6.  Therefore, the third term is x + 6.

To get from 3 to 12, we add 9.  Therefore, the fourth term is x + 9.

To get from 3 to 15, the last term, we add 12.  Therefore, the last term is x + 12.

The sum of these terms will then be set to equal 105:

x + (x + 3) + ( x + 6) + ( x + 9) + ( x + 12) = 105

We don't need the parenthesis to simplify so we add like terms to get

5x + 30 = 105.  Subtract 30 from both sides to get

5x = 75 so

x = 15

That means that 15 is the first multiple of 3.  

The next one is found by adding 3 to the first:  so 18

The next one is found by adding 6 to the first:  so 21

The next one is found by adding 9 to the first:  so 24

The last one is found by adding 12 to the first:  so 27

15 + 18 + 21 + 24 + 27 = 105

Notice that all the numbers are, in fact, consecutive multiples of 3 as the instructions stated.

Answer:

cos (theta) = √21/5

Step-by-step explanation:

sin (theta) = 2/5

(sin (theta))^2 = 4/25

4/25 + (cos (theta))^2 = 1

(cos (theta))^2 = 1 - 4/25 = 21/25

cos (theta) = √21/5

Mountains poem in nepali for class 7​
dalvyx [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

म नजन्मिदै विधवा भएकी हिमाल

खै! किन हो मेरा यी हेर्ने नयनले उनलाइ

अझै पनि दिन र रातमा

सेतै लुगा पहिरिएकी देख्छ

अचम्म लाग्छ मलाइ पहिरिएकी सेतो लुगा माथि

मुनालले पाइला टेके पनि विष्ठा गरे पनि कहिल्यै

मैलो हुदैन सेतो लुगाको वास्तविक रङ

उत्तिकै सेतो देख्छु म

निर्जीव वस्तु भएनी हिमाललाइ

सजीव मनुस्यको जस्तै चोटको कल्पना गरेको छु मैले

किनकी चोटै चोटले ग्रसित भएकी उनी आजभोली

अपाङ्गको सिकार बनिसकेकी छिन

उनलाइ अन्धो भन्छु म किनकी उनी आँखा देख्दैनन

आँखा नदेखे पनि अरु कसैलाइ सुम्सुम्याउन समेत सक्दैनन

तर पनि कस्तुरी, डाफे,मुनाल,घोरल,चितुवा आदि जनावरहरुको

सहारा दिने आश्रय स्थल भएर उभिएकी छिन, के कम छिन र?

जमिन भित्र उनको खुट्टा गाडिएर होला

खुट्टाको दृश्य मैले अझै पनि देख्न पाएको छैन

कस्तो होला है! हिमालको खुट्टा ? सोचिरहन्छु म

सायद खुट्टा नै छैन र पो कहिल्यै पनि हिड्डुल गर्न सक्दैनन कि?

जब कुनै समयमा चुचुरोमा हावा बहन थाल्यो

एकदिन सेतो कपाल धरतीमा हाम फालेर

नदिहरु बढ्न थाले तर उहीँ बहेको हावाले

हिमालको श्रवण गर्ने कानको जाली

नै फुटाइदिएछ त्यही भएर म भन्छु

हिमाललाइ बहिरो पनि हुनुहुन्छ तपाईं

सधै टोलाएर बसेकी देख्छु म

रोजगारी भन्ने कुरा त उहीँ हो हिमाललाइ

बिहानीपख देखि सन्ध्या काल सम्म

प्रकृतिले बसिबसी ऐना टल्काउने

पदभार ग्रहण गराइदिएको छ जब घाम

झुल्किन्छ उनी अस्ताउन्जेल सम्म ऐना टल्काइरहन्छिन्

त्यसैले म भन्छु हिमाललाइ बिधवा भएर के भो त

खान लाउनको लागि रोजगारी मिलेकै छ क्यारे !

Consider the recursively defined function below.
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

  -5.25, -3.5, -1.75, 0, 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive relation tells you this is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 1.75. Each term is 1.75 more than the one before.

To find the 2nd term, add 1.75 to the first term: -5.25 + 1.75 = -3.5

To find the 3rd term, add 1.75 to the second term: -3.5 + 1.75 = -1.75

To find the 4th term, add 1.75 to the third term: -1.75 + 1.75 = 0

and so on ...
