Y-x =17
y = -x + 17
substitute this into the second equation
y = 4x + 2
-x + 17 = 4x + 2
0= 5x -15
15/5 = 5x/5
3 = x
The longest side
Think about it. The widest angle would leave a resulting long side to reach the ends of the angle
If you look at the picture, the side across from the widest angle has the longest length
Ratio and proportion
height:shadow=1.5:2
for the building, shadow=24
1.5:2=h:24
1.5/2=h/24
multiply both sides by 24
36/2=h
18=h
the building is 18 meters
The correct answer is 3.25
The general term for the arithmetic sequence; -13, -11, -9, -7 is Tn = -15 - 2n.
<h3>Arithmetic progression</h3>
-13, -11, -9, -7
- First term, a = -13
- Second term = -11
Common difference, d = Second term - first term
= -11 - (-13)
= -11 + 13
= 2
Therefore,
Tn = a + (n - 1)d
Where,
Tn = a + (n - 1)d
= -13 + (n - 1)2
= -13 - 2n - 2
Tn = -15 - 2n
So therefore, the general term for the arithmetic sequence; -13, -11, -9, -7 is Tn = -15 - 2n.
