Answer:

5. x = -1

6. x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5. AB = 5

BC = 2x + 6

AC = x + 10

AB + BC = AC (segment addition postulate)

5 + 2x + 6 = x + 10 (substitution)

Collect like terms

5 + 6 + 2x = x + 10

11 + 2x = x + 10

2x - x = - 11 + 10

x = -1

6. AB = 9x + 7

BC = -3x + 20

AC = 39

AB + BC = AC (segment addition postulate)

(9x + 7) + (-3x + 20) = 39 (substitution)

Solve for x

9x + 7 - 3x + 20 = 39

Collect like terms

9x - 3x + 7 + 20 = 39

6x + 27 = 39

Subtract 27 from both sides

6x + 27 - 27 = 39 - 27

6x = 12

Divided both sides by 6

6x/6 = 12/6

x = 2

Calculate a_57 for the sequence {a_n}={-6,-9/2,-3,-3/2,0}
Archy [21]

Answer:the 57th term is 78

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is an arithmetic sequence. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = - 6

d =3/2

n = 57

We want to determine the value if the 57th term, T57. Therefore,

T57 = - 6 + (57 - 1) ×3/2

T57 = - 6 + 56 × 3/2 = - 6 + 84

T57 = 78
