Let the first number of the five we are looking for equal n.
Because the numbers are consecutive, the next four can be expressed as (n+1), (n+2), (n+3) and (n+4).
Our series of 5 numbers is therefore n,(n+1),(n+2),(n+3),(n+4).
We are told the sum of the squares of the first 3 is equal to the sum of the squares of the last 2 therefore:
n² + (n+1)² + (n+2)² = (n+3)² + (n+4)²
expand all the brackets to give
n² + n² + 2n + 1 + n² + 4n + 4 = n² + 6n + 9 + n² + 8n + 16
3n²+6n+5 = 2n²+14n+25
n²-8n-20=0
factorising this gives us
(n+2)(n-10) = 0 so the solutions are n=10 and n=-2
That means that n,(n+1),(n+2),(n+3),(n+4) could be [-2, -1, 0, 1 and 2] or [10, 11, 12, 13 and 14].
Since the question asks for whole numbers, and negative numbers are not classed as whole numbers, the numbers we want must be 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.
You can check this on a calculator by doing 10² + 11² + 12² (=365) and 13² + 14² (=365).
Answer:
Product means to multiply.
No more than 30 is basically it can be 30 OR less nothing more.
k(-5) ≤ 30
Thats your inequality.
Solution is easy.
-5k ≤ 30
Divide -5
k ≥ 6
k ≥ 6 since when you divide or multiply by a negative number the inequality is flipped.
k≥ 6 is your solution .
The given angles are
M = 64
N = 48
where P is unknown. While we don't know P at first, we can solve for it. Recall that for any triangle, the three angles always add to 180 degrees
M+N+P = 180
64+48+P = 180
112+P = 180
112+P-112 = 180-112
P = 68
-------------------------------------------
So in summary so far
M = 64
N = 48
P = 68
The shortest side is opposite the smallest angle. The side MP is opposite the smallest angle N = 48
The longest side is going to be opposite the largest angle. In this case, side MN is opposite the largest angle P = 68
The medium side is opposite the medium angle. So NP is the medium side length
-------------------------------------------------------
Final Answers:
Shortest Side = MP
Medium Side = NP
Longest Side = MN
See the attached image for a visual summary
The ascending order would be: MP, NP, MN
Note: Something like MP is the same as PM. The order of endpoints for any given individual segment doesn't matter
2 1/3=7/3=14/6
4 1/2=9/2=27/6
14/6 : 27/6
Simplified: 14 :27
That's your answer.
The answer for the function F(4) = 5/81
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
The given function is F(x) = 5 * (1/3) ^ x
<u>step 1</u> :
The x value is given as the input to get the output from F(x)
<u>step 2</u> :
Here, F(4) means that the x value is x=4
<u>step 3</u> :
Now, substitute x=4 in the given function F(x)
F(4) = 5 (1/3)^4
=5 (1/81)
F(4) = 5/81
