Answer:
when you have something like f(x)=... that means
f means function
and every time you see an x or the variable in the parenthesis you plug in for that so it's f(x) =3x+1 then f(2)= 3x+1 every time you see x you plug in 2
Answer:
-21
Step-by-step explanation:
3x7=21 and a negative x a positive is always negative
Write the first few terms of the sequence.
f₁ = 6
f₂ = f₁ + 5 = 11
f₃ = f₂ + 5 = 16
f₄ = f₃ + 5 = 21
and so on
The sequence is
6, 11, 16, 21, ...,
This is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 5.
In function notation, the sequence is
This represents the equation of a straight line with n as the independent variable and f as the dependent variable.
The slope is 5.
A graph of the line is shown below.

The sequence is
The slope is 5.
If you're only provided with the lengths of a triangle, and you're asked to determine whether or not the triangle is right or not, you'll need to rely on the Pythagorean Theorem to help you out. In case you're rusty on it, the Pythagorean Theorem defines a relationship between the <em>legs</em> of a right triangle and its <em>hypotenuse</em>, the side opposite its right angle. That relationship is a² + b² = c², where a and b are the legs of the triangle, and c is its hypotenuse. To see if our triangle fits that requirement, we'll have to substitute its lengths into the equation.
How do we determine which length is the hypotenuse, though? Knowledge that the hypotenuse is always the longest length of a right triangle helps here, as we can clearly observe that 8.6 is the longest we've been given for this problem. The order we pick the legs in doesn't matter, since addition is commutative, and we'll get the same result regardless of the order we're adding a and b.
So, substituting our values in, we have:
(2.6)² + (8.1)² = (8.6)²
Performing the necessary calculations, we have:
6.76 + 65.61 = 73.96
72.37 ≠ 73.96
Failing this, we know that our triangle cannot be right, but we <em>do </em>know that 72.37 < 73.96, which tells us something about what kind of triangle it is. Imagine taking a regular right triangle and stretching its hypotenuse, keeping the legs a and b the same length. This has the fact of <em>increasing the angle between a and b</em>. Since the angle was already 90°, and it's only increased since then, we know that the triangle has to be <em>obtuse</em>, which is to say: yes, there's an angle in it larger than 90°.
Answer:
distribute
Step-by-step explanation:
so multiply -1 with 5 and -3
this turns it to 2x(-5+3x)=4x+2
then you multiply 2x to -5 and 3x
so on...
