What is the 21st term of an arithmetic sequence with terms a6=50 and a11=85?

1 answer:

8 0

B.)155

a1+d(n-1)
a1+d(6-1)=50
a1+5d=50
a1+d(11-1)=85
a1+10d=85
a1=50-5d
(50-5d)+10d=85
50-5d+10d=85
5d+50=85
5d=35
d=7
a1+7(6-1)=50
a1+35=50
a1=15
15+7(n-1)
15+7(21-1)
15+7(20)
15+140=155

The coat was $10 then was raised to $12 what was the percent increase

Colt1911 [192]

$\frac{12 - 10}{10}$
Thats what you would use, so now 2/10 is .2 When you divide so you move the decimal so 20%
The percent increase is 20%

The equation A = x(x - 7) describes the area, A, of a rectangular flower garden, where x is the width in feet.

mamaluj [8]

x(x-7)=8

x^2-7x-8=0

(x-8)(x+1)=0

so x=8 (and -1 but width can’t be negative)

So your answer is C. 8

Find the missing length of the triangle. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side

a^2 +b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the sides and c is the hypotenuse

x^2 + 40^2 = 50^2

x^2 +1600 = 2500

x^2 = 2500-1600

x^2 = 900

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(900)

x = 30
