Answer:

= - 1.5n - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the sequence is arithmetic with n th term ( explicit formula

= a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 7.5 and d = - 9 - (- 7.5) = - 9 + 7.5 = - 1.5

= - 7.5 - 1.5(n - 1) = - 7.5 - 1.5n + 1.5 = - 1.5n - 6

angle A and angle B are complementary angles. If m angle A = (x-16)degrees and m angle B = (3x+28)degrees, then find the measure

Ahat [919]

Answer:

$4x \times 448$

Step-by-step explanation:

$a = (x - 16)$

$b = (3x + 28)$

So you add :

$x \: and3x$

To get

$4x$

Then you do :

$16 \times 28$

To get :

$448$

Answer is :

$4x \times 448$

Change to Slope-Intercept form (Y=MX+B) Show all your work!!!! 2x-y=2

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

y=2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-y=2

+y +y 1)add y to both sides

2x=y+2

-2 -2 2) Substract 2 from both sides

2x-2=y

y=2x-2 3) Use the Refelxive POE to flip the sides

An airplane descends 1.5 miles to an elevation of 6.05.Find the elevation of the plane befor its descent the intial elevation of

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

7.55 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance of descent = 1.5 miles

New elevation point after descent = 6.05 miles

The initial elevation of the plane before descent will be :

New elevation point after descent + Distance of descent

(6.05 miles + 1.5 miles)

= 7.55 miles
