The answer is 29 

let n be the first of the consecutive odd numbers
⇒ n, n+2, n+4 n+6, n+5
represent 5 consecutive odd numbers
sum = n+ (n+2) + (n+4) + (n+6) + (n+8) = 5n+20
⇒ 5n +20=145 
Solve for n = 25

25, 27, 29, 31, 33

25+27+29+31+33=145

Find the solution of the differential equation that satisfies the given initial condition. (du)/(dt) = (2t + sec^2 t)/(2u), u(0)
Delicious77 [7]
Ah okay so in differential equations you usually want the top variable isolated. To do this, multiply by dt and 2u and you get
2udu = 2t + { \sec(t) }^{2} dt
Now just integrate both sides. The integral of 2u with respect to u is u². The integral of (2t + sec²(t) with respect to t is t² + ∫sec²(t)dt. The last part is just tan(x) because d/dt(tan(t)) is sec²(t) so just integrating gets us back. Now we have
{u}^{2}   + c =  {t}^{2}  +  \tan(t)  + k
Where c and k are arbitrary constants. Subtracting c from k and you get
{u}^{2}  =  {t}^{2}  +  \tan(t)  + b
Where b is another constant. To find b, just plug in u(0) = -1 where u is -1 and t is 0. This becomes
1 =  \tan(0)  + b
tan(0) is 0 so b = 1. Take the plus or minus square root on both sides and you finally get
u =  \: { {t}^{2} }  +  \tan(t)  + 1
But Brainly didn't let me do but juat remember there is a plus or minus square root on the left.

At a local grocery store, apples cost $0.50 each and bananas cost $0.30 each. The expression 0.50x + 0.30y can be used to find t
JulsSmile [24]

(1) x represents the number of apples bought, y represents the number of bananas.

(2) each term represents the total costs of a given fruit, so 0.50x is the total cost of apples and 0.30y is total cost of bananas.

(3) The coefficients are unit prices: coefficient 0.50 is the price of 1 apple, 0.30 is the price of 1 banana.

Find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola with the following equation.
frosja888 [35]
You are given the equation 36 = 9x² + 4y². You are asked to find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola. A hyperbola has the following general equation x²/a² + y²/b² = 1. the goal here is to find the slopes of the hyperbolic equation. So divide both sides by 36

36 = 9x² + 4y²
(1/36)[36 = 9x² + 4y²]
1 = x²/4 + y²/9
a² = 4
a = 2
and
b² = 9
b = 3

To find the slope, divide a/b and you will get 2/3.
