Mathematics

svetlana [45]3 years ago

Let a be the first term and d be the common difference

t5 = 3 = a + 4d
t7 = 7 = a + 6d

a + 6d - a - 4d = 7 - 3
2d = 4
d = 2

Sub d = 2,
3 = a + 4(2)
a = -5

t2 = a + d
t2 = -5 + 2
t2 = -3

Simplify (6x2 + 11x − 3) + (2x2 − 17x − 4).
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

B. 8x^2-6x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is combine the like terms.

Like terms are the terms that have the same variable and same exponent.

The like terms in this equation are 6x^2 and 2x^2, 11x and -17x, and -3 and -4.

When you add 6x^2 and 2x^2, you get 8x^2

When you add 11x and -17x, you get -6x

When you add -3 and -4, you get -7.

Putting these all in order, your answer is

8x^2 - 6x - 7

let p be the number of primes less than 100, and let Q be the number of primes less than 90. What is the value of P-Q?
3241004551 [841]

The value of P - Q as described in the question above is; P -Q = 2.

According to the question;

  • P = number of primes less than 100
  • Q = number of primes less than 90

Since, we are required to determine what the value of P-Q is;

The value of P-Q is simply the number of primes between 90 and 100.

The prime numbers between 90 and 100 are; 91 and 97.

Therefore, P - Q = 2.
