Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding angles in similar triangles are congruent. The similarity statement tells you angle B corresponds to angle Y, so those angles are congruent. The sines of congruent angles are identical.
sin(B) > sin(Y) . . . . FALSE
sin(B) = sin(Y) . . . . true
In
order to solve for a nth term in an arithmetic sequence, we use the formula
written as:<span>
an = a1 + (n-1)d
where an is the nth term, a1 is the first value
in the sequence, n is the term position and d is the common difference.
First, we need to calculate for d from the given
values above.
<span>a3 = 20.5 and a8 = 13
</span>
an = a1 + (n-1)d
20.5 = a1 + (3-1)d
</span>an = a1 + (n-1)d
13 = a1 + (8-1)d
<span>
a1 = 23.5
d = -1.5
The 11th term is calculated as follows:
a11 = a1 + (n-1)d
a11= 23.5 + (11-1)(-1.5)
a11 =
8.5</span>
Solve simultaneously.
4x - y = 8
6x + y = 2
Multiply top equation by 6, and bottom equation by 4, to eliminate x, so that we can find y.
~
24x - 6y = 48
24x - 4y = 8
Subtract top from bottom to form one equation.
~
-2y = 40
Therefore y is 20.
Put y back in to an equation, such as 4x - y = 8.
~
4x - 20 = 8
4x = 28
x = 7
