Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is  

24, 30, 36, 42, 48, ...

It is an AP. Here,  

First term = 24

Common difference = 30-24 = 6

The given explicit formula for nth term is

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

where, a_1 is first term, d is common difference.

Substitute a_1=24, d=6 \text{ and }n=500 in the above formula.

a_{500}=24+(500-1)(6)

a_{500}=24+(499)(6)

a_{500}=24+2994

a_{500}=3018

The 500th term of the sequence is 3018.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

The measures of two sides of a triangle are 4in and 13in. Find all possible values that the third side of this triangle can be?
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

9 < x < 17 is the possible length of the third side of a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Triangle Inequality theorem defines that if we are given two sides of a triangle, the sum of any two given sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the 3rd side.

Given the two sides of the triangle

  • 4 in
  • 13 in

Let 'x' be the length of 3rd size.

According to the Triangle Inequality theorem,

The difference of two sides < x < The sum of two sides

13 - 4 < x < 13+4

9 < x < 17

Therefore, 9 < x < 17 is the possible length of the third side of a triangle.

Which is irrational?
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

  (b)  √5

Step-by-step explanation:

The square root of an integer is rational if the integer is a perfect square. You probably know the first few perfect square integers are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, ...

The integer 5 is not on that list, so its square root will be irrational.

  √5 is irrational

Karen is making a set of costumes for the school play using a piece of cloth. She reduces the length of the cloth she intends to
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The new length is 13.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the new length of the cloth she wants to use

What we know from the question is that she is making a reduction of 10% from an initial of 15 meters

Thus, the length she is to use can be calculated by first getting what 10% of 15 meters is

Mathematically, that would be ;

10/100 * 15 = 1.5 meters

We now subtract this from the total of 15 meters

= 15 meters - 1.5 meters = 13.5 meters
