Answer: The area of the sector will be about 141.3 square inches.
First, we need to find the area of the entire circle. The formula is pi(r^2). Inputting 18 for the radius makes the area of the circle about 1017.36 square inches.
Now, we multiply by the area by the size of the sector. It is 50 degree out of the entire 360 degrees. That is about 13.9%.
Multiply 13.9% by 1017.36 to get an area of about 141.3 square inches for the sector.
Check the forward differences of the sequence.
If 
, then let 
be the sequence of first-order differences of 
. That is, for n ≥ 1,
so that 
.
Let 
be the sequence of differences of ,
and we see that this is a constant sequence, 
. In other words, is an arithmetic sequence with common difference between terms of 2. That is,
and we can solve for 
in terms of 
:
and so on down to
We solve for 
in the same way.
Then
and so on down to
Answer:
b (1/15)
Step-by-step explanation:
A polynomial with roots a and b is (x - a)(x - b).
(x - 2)(x - (-1))(x - 4) = 0
(x - 2)(x + 1)(x - 4) = 0
has roots 2, -1, and 4.
