Answer:

The number is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the positive number is x then:

x^2 = 5x + 24

x^2 - 5x - 24 = 0

(x - 8)(x + 3) = 0

x =8, -3 .

x is positive so the answer is 8.

Find the length of the altitude to the hypotenuse. round the answer to the nearest tenth, if needed.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 56.8

Step-by-step explanation :

Right Triangle Altitude Theorem:

The measure of altitude drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right angled triangle to its hypotenuse is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

We are drawing a line from vertex to hypotenuse side.

As per theorem:

\frac{BD}{AB}=\frac{CB}{AC}

\frac{BD}{60}=\frac{175}{185}

BD=\frac{175\times 60}{185}

BD=56.8

Therefore, the length of the altitude to the hypotenuse is 56.8

The explicit formula for a certain geometric sequence is f(n)=1250(11)^n-1. What is the exponential function for the sequence? W
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

f(n) = \frac{1250}{11}(11)^n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(n) = 1250(11)^{n-1}

Required

Write as exponential function

An exponential function is represented as:

f(n) = ab^n

f(n) = 1250(11)^{n-1}

Apply law of indices

f(n) = \frac{1250(11)^n}{11}

f(n) = \frac{1250}{11}(11)^n

<em>The above represents the exponential function</em>
