Answer:

C. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, set each parenthesis equal to the opposite side (0 in this case).

(x - 4)(x - 4) = 0

x - 4 = 0

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 4 to both sides:

x - 4 (+4) = 0 (+4)

x = 0 + 4

x = 4

Do the same for the other parenthesis:

x - 4 = 0

x - 4 (+4) = 0 (+4)

x = 0 + 4

x = 4

C. 4 is your answer.

If the 50th and 51st terms of an arithmetic sequence are 140 and 142, find the 1st term
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The first term is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference is 142  - 140 = 2 so we have

50th term = a1 + 2(50 -1) = 140    where a1 is the first term

a1 + 98 = 140

a1 = 140 - 98 =  42.

Express 78 billion in scientific notation
ryzh [129]

Answer:

7.8 * 10^{10} is scientific notation of 78 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

For scientific notation , follow the following notation:

a * 10^{b} -------->(equation 1)

Let,  a^{'} = 78 billion

a^{'} = 78000000000

a^{'} = 78000000000.0

In standard form

a = 7.8000000000

or

a = 7.8

As decimal point move 10 places from right to left, therefore

b = 10

Put the value of 'a' and 'b' in (equation 1)

7.8 * 10^{10} is scientific notation of 78 billion

How do you work this out? need help asap
Svetlanka [38]
Hello,

Line 1 is passing through (-4,3), (-2,7) has a slope of (3-7)/(-4+2)=2

Line 2 is passing through (2,9), (4,1) has a slope of (9-1)/(2-4)=-4

One other way:

y=9-1/2 x²
y'=-x

gradient 1=-(-2)=2 for point (-2,7)

gradient 2=-(4)=-4 for point(4,1)

i think it will make it smaller due to the base being longer which stretches out the two sides and makes less space inside of the triangle
