The formula for an arithmetic series is shown below, where n = 1, 2, 3 ...
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

4th term = 28

5th term =  37

6th term = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n + 1) = f(n) + 8

f(1) = 5

f(1 + 1) = f(1) + 8 = 5+8 = 13

f(2) = 13

f(2 + 1) = f(2) + 8 = 13+8 = 21

Thus, series is 5, 13, 21......

In arithmetic series

Nth term is given by

n th term = a + (n-1)d

where a is the first term

and d is the common difference.

common difference d = nth term - (n-1)th term

For this series

a = 5

lets take nth term as 2nd term and 1st term as (n-1)th term

d = 13-5 = 8

n th term = a + (n-1)d

using the formula for nth term

4th term = 5 + (4-1)8 = 29

5th term = 5 + (5-1) 8= 37

6th term = 5+ (6-1)8 = 45

Thus, 4th term = 28

5th term =  37

6th term = 45

Note this, problem can be solved using f(n + 1) = f(n) + 8 by putting n = 3,4,5 as well but for learning concept of arithmetic series, i have used above process. Hope it helps.

Angle measures and segment lengths. Algebra Find the value of each variable.
Katyanochek1 [597]

(9)

<em>x</em> ° = 1/2 (130° - 30°) = 50°

(due to a theorem about intersecting secants/tangents)

(11) The labeled angle subtends a minor arc of meaure 120°, which means the larger arc has a measure of 360° - 120° = 240°. Then

<em>x</em> ° = 1/2 (240° - 120°) = 60°

(due to the same theorem)

(13) The labeling here is a bit confusing. I'm not sure what the 70° is referring to. It occurs to me that it might be info from a different exercise, so that <em>y </em>° is the measure of the angle made by the tangent to the circle with a vertex of the pentagon, and <em>x</em> ° is the measure of each arc that passes over an edge of the pentagon.

Each arc makes up 1/5 of the circle's circumferece, so

<em>x</em> ° = 360°/5 = 72°

The pentagon is regular, so each of its interior angles have the same measure of 108°. (Why 108°? Each exterior angle measures 360°/5 = 72°, since the exterior angles sum to 360°. Interior and exterior angles are supplementary, so the interior angles measure 180° - 72° = 108° each.)

The angles formed by the tangent to the circle are supplementary, so that

<em>y</em> ° + 108° + <em>y</em> ° = 180°

2<em>y</em> ° = 72°

<em>y</em> ° = 36°
