Let the second score = x
⇒ second score = x

<span>the first is 14 points more than the second
</span>⇒ first score = x + 14

<span>the sum of the first two is 6 more than twice the third
</span>⇒ third score = 1/2 (x + x + 14 - 6) = x + 4

<span>The sum of a student's three score is 246
</span>⇒ x + (x + 14) + (x + 4) = 246
<span>
Solve x:
</span>x + x + 14 + x + 4 = 246
3x + 18 = 246
3x = 228
x = 76

second score = x = 76
first score = x + 14 = 76 + 14 = 90

Answer: 90

Find the missing length
jasenka [17]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you will have to use pythagoras’ theorem.

The formula for the shorter side of this triangle is u²=c²-b² (or in this case u²=17²-8²).

17²=289

8²=64

The formula becomes u²=289-64 or u²=225

Then to find u on its own you have to square root 225.

The square root of 225 is 15.

The sequence can be written as ...

  4/2, 5/3, 6/4, 7/5, 8/6, ...

where the first numerator is n+3 and the first denominator is n+1. Each numerator and denominator increase by 1 from term to term, so the explicit formula can be written
