Answer:

158

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is 3, 8, 13, ..., 253.

Going backwards, it's 253, 248, 243, ..., 3.

First term is 253, common difference is -5.

The nth term is:

a = 253 − 5(n − 1)

The 20th term is:

a = 253 − 5(20 − 1)

a = 158

Find the slope of the line in simplest form.

N76 [4]

Answer:

$-\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the given line, slope is the rise divided by the run of a line.

Slope = $\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }$

Picking points (4, 18) and (8, 12)

Now;

x₁ = 4

y₁ = 18

x₂ = 8

y₂ = 12

Slope = $\frac{12 - 18}{8-4}$ = $-\frac{6}{4}$ = $-\frac{3}{2}$

Given: AB ∥ DC

RSB [31]

Answer:

$A=1,720.16\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the trapezoid is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}(DC+AB)DE$

step 1

Find the measure of angle DAE

m∠ADC+m∠DAE=180° -----> by consecutive interior angles

we have

m∠ADC = 134°

substitute

134°+m∠DAE=180°

m∠DAE=180°-134°=46°

step 2

In the right triangle ADE

Find the length side AE

cos(∠DAE)=AE/AD

$AE=cos(46\°)(40)\\AE=27.79\ units$

step 3

In the right triangle ADE

Find the length side DE

sin(∠DAE)=DE/AD

$DE=sin(46\°)(40)\\DE=28.77\ units$

step 4

Find the area of ABCD

$A=\frac{1}{2}(DC+AB)DE$

we have

$DC=32\ units\\AB=DC+2(AE)=32+2(27.79)=87.58\ units\\DE=28.77\ units$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{2}(32+87.58)28.77$

$A=1,720.16\ units^2$

A car rental company charges $29 per day to rent a car and $0.15 per mile driven.

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

A) C = 29*d + 0.15*m

B) C = $88.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let the cost of the rental = C

Let the most of the daily rental = d

Let the cost of the mileage driven = m

Equation

Cost = 29*d + 0.15*m

C = 29*d + 0.15m

Part B

d = 2

m = 205

C = ?

C = 29*2 + 205*0.15

C = 58 + 30.75

C = $88.75

Answer:

H^-1=2/5x-8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

interchange the variables

x=5/2y+4

so 5/2y=x-4

y=2/5x-8/5

H^-1=2/5x-8/5
