ΔACD is similar to ΔBCD by AA similarity theorem
AD/AC = BD/BC
x/5 = 4.2/6
6x = 21
x = 3.5
Hope this helps! ;)
Answer:
Explicit tn = 52 + (n - 1)*(-12)
Recursive = tn = t(n - 1) - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between term n and term n - 1 is can be found by taking the difference between and 2 consecutive terms.
t3 = 28
t2 = 40
d = t3 - t2
d = 28 - 40
d = - 12
Explicit
tn = a1 + (n - 1)*d
a1 = 52
d = - 12
tn = 52 + (n - 1)*(-12)
<em><u>Example</u></em>
Find t5
t5 = 52 + (5 - 1)*(-12)
t5 = 52 + 4 * - 12
t5 = 52 - 48
t5 = 4
Recursive
tn = t(n - 1) - 12
<em><u>Example</u></em>
t5 = t4 - 12
t5 = 16 - 12
t5 = 4 just as it did before.
Exact Form:
x = 34/7
Decimal Form:
x= 4. 857142
Mixed Number Form:
x= 4 6/7
45(v - 7) = 2...divide both sides by 45
v - 7 = 2/45...add 7 to both sides
v = 2/45 + 7
v = 2/45 + 315/45
v = 317/45 or 7 2/45
