Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

t_{n} = t_{1} + (n - 1)d

given t_{1} = 3 and t_{2} = 10, then

t_{2} = 3 + d = 10 ⇒ d = 10 - 3 = 7

t_{n} = 3 + 7(n - 1) = 3 + 7n - 7 = 7n - 4

the sum to n terms of an arithmetic sequence is

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2}[2t_{1} + (n - 1)d ]

                        = \frac{n}{2}[(2 × 3) + 7(n - 1) ]

                        = \frac{n}{2}(6 + 7n - 7 )

                        = \frac{n}{2}(7n - 1)

                        = \frac{7}{2} n² - \frac{1}{2} n

Phillip watched a beach volleyball game from 1:45pm to 2:00pm.how many degrees did the minutes hand turn?
VikaD [51]
For this case, the first thing to do is to calculate the time you were watching the game.
 We have then:
 2:00 - 1:45 = 15 minutes
 Then, the amount of degrees is given by:
 (15/60) * (360) = 90 degrees
 Answer:
 
the minutes hand did turn about:
 
90 degrees

X=70, y=55

The triangle is an isosceles triangles. In an isosceles triangle, the base angles are congruent.

Then use the triangle angle sum theorem and set the equation to 180.

55+55+x=180
110+x=180
x=70

The angle with 55 degrees and the angle with the variable y are alternate angles. Meaning they are congruent.

Why does a radical function with an even index only appear on one sode of the x-axis while a radical woth an odd index appears o
Vladimir79 [104]

Consider the equation y = x^2. No matter what x happens to be, the result y will never be negative even if x is negative. Example: x = -3 leads to y = x^2 = (-3)^2 = 9 which is positive.

Since y is never negative, this means the inverse x = sqrt(y) has the right hand side never be negative. The entire curve of sqrt(x) is above the x axis except for the x intercept of course. Put another way, we cannot plug in a negative input into the square root function for this reason. This similar idea applies to any even index such as fourth roots or sixth roots.

Meanwhile, odd roots such as a cube root has its range extend from negative infinity to positive infinity. Why? Because y = x^3 can have a negative output. Going back to x = -3 we get y = x^3 = (-3)^3 = -27. So we can plug a negative value into the cube root to get some negative output. We can get any output we want, negative or positive. So the range of any radical with an odd index is effectively the set of all real numbers. Visually this produces graphs that have parts on both sides of the x axis.
