Triangular sequence = n(n + 1)/2

If 630 is a triangular number, then:

n(n + 1)/2  = 630

Then n should be a positive whole number if 630 is a triangular number.

n(n + 1)/2  = 630

n(n + 1)  = 2*630

n(n + 1)  = 1260

n² + n = 1260

n² + n - 1260 = 0

By trial an error note that 1260 = 35 * 36

n² + n - 1260 = 0

Replace n with 36n - 35n

n² + 36n - 35n - 1260 = 0

n(n + 36) - 35(n + 36) = 0

(n + 36)(n - 35) = 0

n + 36 = 0   or   n - 35 = 0

n = 0 - 36,   or  n = 0 + 35

n = -36, or 35

n can not be negative. 

n = 35 is valid.

Since n is a positive whole number, that means 630 is a triangular number.

So the answer is True.

Solve the equation below for the variable "x". *<br> - 2x + 10 = 8
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 10 from 8 to get -2. Then divide -2x by itself so it will cancel out. Whatever you do to one side of the equation, do to the other so divide -2 by -2 to get your answer of 1

We are given an isosceles triangle.

An isosceles triangle has corresponding angles of corresponding sides same.

<em>Therefore, other angle is also of (3x+7) degrees.</em>

(5x+13) and (3x+7) makes a linear pair.

Therefore,

(5x+13) + (3x+7)  = 180

5x +13 + 3x +7 = 180.

8x +20 = 180.

Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get

8x +20-20 = 180-20.

8x = 160

Dividing both sides by 8, we get

<h3>x = 20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 3rd option. </h3>
