Answer: 
</h3>
n starts at 1, and n is a positive whole number (1,2,3,...)
======================================================
Explanation:
The sequence is arithmetic with first term 40 and common difference 10. Meaning we add 10 to each term to get the next one.
--------
a1 = 40 = first term
d = 10 = common difference

is the general nth term of this arithmetic sequence
Plug in n = 1 and you should get 
Plug in n = 2 and you should get 
and so on
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the standard quadratic equation is ax^2+bx+c=0
Let's compare all the given equation to it and , find discriminant.
1. a=2, b= -7, c=-9
So it has 2 real number solutions.
2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

So it has only 1 real number solution.
3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

So it has 2 real number solutions.
4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8
So it has 2 real number solutions.
5. a=3, b=5, c=3

Thus it does not has real solutions.
Answer:
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Please use " ^ " to denote exponentation:
x^2 - 10x = -8
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
x^2 - 10x + 25 = -8
x^2 - 10x - 25 = -33
Begin with x^2 - 10x = -8. Here's the process for completing the square:
1. Take half of the coefficient of x and square the result:
(1/2)(-10) = -5, and then (-5)^2 = + 25
2. Add this 25 to the first two terms of x^2 - 10x = -8 and also to the constant -8: x^2 - 10x + 25 = -8 + 25, or x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
3. Match this result to one of the given possible answers. Turns out that the given possible answer matching our result is the first one:
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 17
