<u>Answer:</u>

<u><em>41</em></u>

<u />

<u>Explanation:</u>

To solve this problem we must first understand what the pattern is in the arithmetic sequence. Once we understand the pattern, we can then apply it to the final known term to find the next term.

Take a look at the arithmetic sequence given:

<em>9, 17, 25, 33,...</em>

<em />

Let's start by figuring out how they got the second term in the sequence. To do that, subtract the second term by the first term. This will reveal the pattern.

<em>9 - first term</em>

<em>17 - second term</em>

<em />

<em>17 - 9 = 8</em>

<em />

So, this means they added eight to get the next term. Therefore, the pattern should be 'add eight' to get the next term. Just to be sure the pattern we found is correct, apply it to the given arithmetic sequence.

<em>9, 17, 25, 33,...</em>

<em>9 </em><em>+ 8 = </em><em>17</em>

<em>17  </em><em>+ 8 = </em><em>25</em>

<em>25 </em><em>+ 8 = </em><em>33</em>

<em />

So, since 'adding eight' every time gives us the next term, the pattern is correct.

Finally, let's continue the pattern to find the next term.

<em>9, 17, 25, 33,...</em>

<em />

<em>33 </em><em>+ 8 = </em><em>41</em>

<em />

<em>9, 17, 25, 33, 41,...</em>

<em />

Therefore, the next term in the arithmetic sequence is <u><em>41</em></u>.

How the transformations of the functions f(x)=15tanx and g(x)=tanx+15 differ?
Irina-Kira [14]
The transformation of <span>f(x)=15tanx would be achieved by dilating y</span>=tanx graph 15 times. This transformation will cause y'=15 y. This will increase the value of dilation become 15 times of the original

The transformation of g(x)=15tanx would be achieved by shifting y=tanx graph 15 right. This transformation will cause x'=x+15. This will change the value from tan x into tan(x+15)

The distance (d) in meters that an ant can travel varies directly with the amount of time (t) in hours it spends walking.assume
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

d = 3  meters

Step-by-step explanation:

d = rt where d is the distance t is the time and r is the constant of proportionality

d = 18t

Changing 10 minutes to hours

10 minutes * 1 hours / 60 minute = 1/6 hour

d = 18 * 1/6 hour

d = 3  meters
