To calculate this you can use the Pythagorean Theorem, so if one pole is the height, the distance from top of one to bottom of other is hypotenuse, you can solve for the base by taking the square root of (20^2 - 12^2) or 16 which is the answer.

What is the explicit formula for this sequence?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is b.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sequence  -7, -4, -1, 2, 5.......  => a₁ = -7, a₂ = -4, a₃ = -1, a₄ = 2 and a₅ = 5

We conclude that this sequence is arithmetic series.

First we must find difference d:

d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ = -4 - (-7) = -1 - (-4) = -4 + 7 = -1 + 4 = 3

d = 3

The formula for n-th term of the arithmetic series is:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1) d

aₙ = -7 + (n-1) 3

God with you!!!
