Hey there :)

\frac{7}{2},  \frac{9}{4},1, -\frac{1}{4} , -\frac{3}{2} ,  \frac{?}{?}

We can find the common difference here as it is an arithmetic sequence.

The common difference between each term is: \frac{5}{4}

\frac{7}{2} - \frac{5}{4} = \frac{9}{4}

We can find the unknown term by:
-\frac{3}{2}- \frac{5}{4}= -\frac{11}{4} {easier way in this example}

OR

by the formula for finding the nth term

a₆ = \frac{7}{2} +(6-1)( -\frac{5}{4} ) 
{a₆ because it is the 6th term to be found, (6-1) the nth term minus 1}

a₆ = - \frac{11}{4}
However this way is not essential here as the previous term is given.

zaharov [31]

Answer:

506

Step-by-step explanation:

:. t6 = 46 ... [ Given ]

tn = a+(n-1) d ... [ Formula ]

:. t6 = a+(6-1) d

:. 46 = a+5d ... [1]

Sn = n/2 [2a+(n-1)d] ... [ Formula ]

:. S11 = 11/2 [2a+(11-1) d]

:. S11 = 11/2 [2a+10d]

:. S11 = 11/2x2 [a+5d]

:. S11 = 11[46] ... [ From (1)]

:. S11 = 506

2x + 19 and x + 23 are alternate exterior angles. What is the value of x? *
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+19=x+23

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

2x+19=x+23

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+2x-1x=+23-19

We simplify the left and right sides of the equation.

+1x=+4

We divide both sides of the equation by 1 to get x.

x=4
