Th<br> Write an<br> explicit formula for<br> ans<br> then<br> term of the sequence 40,50,60, ....
kenny6666 [7]
<h3>Answer:   a_n = 10n+30</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

a_n = a_1 + d(n-1)\\\\a_n = 40 + 10(n-1)\\\\a_n = 40 + 10n-10\\\\a_n = 10n + 30\\\\

is the general nth term of this arithmetic sequence

Plug in n = 1 and you should get a_1 = 40

Plug in n = 2 and you should get a_2 = 50

and so on

Substitute the values for a, b, and c into b2 – 4ac to determine the discriminant. Which quadratic equations will have two real
hoa [83]

Answer: 0=2x^2-7x-9\\0=4x^2-3x-1\\0=x^2-2x-8


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

b^2-4ac=(-7)^2-4(2)(-9)=49+72>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

2. a=1, b=-4, c=4

b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4(1)(4)=16-16=0

So it has only 1 real number solution.

3. a=4, b=-3, c=-1

b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(4)(-1)=9+16=25>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

4. a=1, b=-2, c=-8

b^2-4ac=(-2)^2-4(1)(-8)=4+32=36>0

So it has 2 real number solutions.

5. a=3, b=5, c=3

b^2-4ac=(5)^2-4(3)(3)=25-36=-9

Thus it does not has real solutions.

Use completing the square to solve the equation x2 - 10x = -8.
Kay [80]

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
