Represent these consecutive numbers (assuming that they are all integers):
x
x+1
x+2
x+3
x+4
x+5
and so on
x+8
x+9 is the tenth number. x+9 = 10, so x = 9.
Think of it this way: there are 10 consecutive numbers, and the last one is 10.
Working backwards, we get the sequence 10, 9, ... 3, 2, 1.
The sum of such an arith sequence is equal to the count of the numbers times the average of the first and last terms:
sum here = 10(1+10)/2 = 5(11) = 55 (answer)
I think it is 9 - x because 81-x^2/9-x = 9-x
Answer:
Triangle #2
Step-by-step explanation:
Translation involves the movement of a triangle without changing its direction or shape. It basically involves the sliding of a triangle, so Triangle 2 satisfies the definition of translation.
Given:
First term of an arithmetic sequence = 5
Second term = 3
To find:
The explicit formula for the given arithmetic sequence.
Solution:
We have,
First term: 
Second term: 
Common difference is
Now, the explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is
where, a is first term and d is common difference.
Putting a=5 and d=-2, we get
It can also be written as
Here, n is an integer greater than or equal to 1.
Domain is the set of input values.
Therefore, the explicit equation is or and domain is all interest greater than or equal to 1.
