Answer:

<h2>n = 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to be Tn = a+(n-1)d

a = first term of the sequence

n = number of terms

d = common difference.

Given the first element a = 2 and 22nd to be 14

T22 = a+(22-1)d = 14

a+21d = 14

Substtuting a = 2 into the equation to get d

2+21d = 14

21d = 12

d = 12/21

d = 4/7

The nth term of the sequence given a = 2 and d = 4/7 will be expressed as;

Tn = 2+(n-1)4/7

Given Tn = 6

6 = 2+(n-1)4/7

6 = 2+4/7 n - 4/7

6-2+4/7 = 4/7 n

32/7=4/7 n

32 = 4n

n = 32/4

n = 8

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

3x + 9 + 2x = x - 2x - 3              

Solution

Combine all the like terms.

3x+2x+9 =  x - 2x - 3

5x + 9 = -x - 3                            Add x to both sides of the equation

5x+x +9 = -x+x -3                      Combine

6x + 9 = - 3                                Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation

6x+9-9 = - 3-9                           Combine

6x = -12                                      Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = -12/6

x = - 2

Answer x = - 2

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

1.47 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

In week 1 there was 2.6 mm

In week 4 there was 4.07

You want to find the difference of week 1 and 4 meaning you have to subtract week 4's value from week 1's to find how much more rain there was in week 4 than week 1

You would do 4.07-2.6

This is equal to 1.47

THEREFORE there was 1.47 mm more rain in week 4 than week 1

In the diagram, point C represents the center of the sphere. Diego says that the part of the sphere labeled D is the radius. Gre
Katen [24]

Answer:

Gregoire is correct; the diameter is a chord that passes through the center of the sphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sphere is a geometrical shape formed from a circle. Some of its parts are: diameter, center, radius circumference, etc.

The center of a sphere is a point at its middle. The diameter is a straight line, e.g a chord, that is drawn from one point on the circumference of a sphere to another point and passes through its center. While radius is a line that is from the center of the sphere to a point on its circumference.

A diameter is twice of a radius, so that:

                            Radius = \frac{Diameter}{2}

⇒                        Diameter = 2 × Radius

Therefore with respect to the question, Gregoire is correct because a diameter is a chord that passes through the center of the sphere.
