Answer:

So the formula for the sequence is

Second term =first term + (a+nd)

Third term = second term + (a+nd)

And so on

Where n start with zero

Step-by-step explanation:

3 8 17 30 47

First term = 3

Second term = 8

Third term = 17

Fourth term = 30

Fifth term = 47

Second term - first term = 8-3=5

Third term - second term = 17-8= 9

Fourth term - third term = 30-17=13

Fifth term - fourth term = 47-30=17

So the AP is 5 9 13 17

We find out that the common difference is 9-5 = 4

The formula for nth term of the AP is

= a + nd

So the formula fir the sequence is

Second term =first term + (a+nd)

Third term = second term + (a+nd)

And so on

Where n start with zero

Lola and Brandon had a running race. They ran 3/10 of a mile. Lola was in the lead for 4/5 of the distance. For what fraction of

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Lola was in lead for $\frac{6}{25}$ of a mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Lola and Brandon had a running race. They ran 3/10 of a mile. Lola was in the lead for 4/5 of the distance.

To find the fraction of a mile for which Lola was in the lead, we need to find 4/5 of 3/10 as:

$\text{Fraction for which Lola was in lead}=\frac{3}{10}\times\frac{4}{5}$

$\text{Fraction for which Lola was in lead}=\frac{3}{5}\times\frac{2}{5}$

$\text{Fraction for which Lola was in lead}=\frac{3\times2}{5\times5}$

$\text{Fraction for which Lola was in lead}=\frac{6}{25}$

Therefore, Lola was in lead for $\frac{6}{25}$ of a mile.

Una recta que pasa por los puntos A (2,1) y B (6,3) y otra recta pasa por A y por el punto (0,y) ¿Cuánto vale y, si ambas rectas

ASHA 777 [7]

The translation of the question given is

A line that passes through the points A (2,1) and B (6,3) and another line passes through A and through the point (0, y). What is y worth, if both lines are perpendicular?

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Line 1 that passes through A (2,1) and B (6,3)

Slope (m1) = 3-1/6-2 = 2/4 = 1/2

y - 1 = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( x -2)

2y - 2 = x- 2

y = $\frac{x}{2}$

Line 2 passes through A (2,1) and (0,y)

slope (m2) = $\frac{y-1}{-2}$

Line 1 and Line 2 are perpendicular

m1*m2 = -1

$\frac{1}{2}$ * $\frac{y-1}{-2}$ = -1

y-1 = 4

y = 5

slope = -2

Equation of Line 2

Y-1 = -2(x-2)

y -1 = -2x +4

2x +y = 5
