H^2=x^2+y^2
35^2=29^2+y^2
y^2=35^2-29^2
y^2=384
y=√384
y≈19.60 m (to the nearest hundredth of a meter, or nearest centimeter)
B. I'm terrible at explaining but I'm sure that's right.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We observe that the difference of terms is 4, 7 and 15 and next level difference is 4. It means the sequence is quadratic.
<u>We can compare this with simple quadratic sequence </u>
<u>and find out that doubling each term gives us </u>
This is close to our sequence, write the terms as follows to find exact rule
<u>The first term: </u>
- a₁ = 4 = 2*1² + 2 = 2*1² + 1 + 1
<u>The second term</u>
- a₂ = 11 = 2*2² + 3 = 2*2² + 2 + 1
<u>The third term:</u>
- a₃ = 22 = 2*3² + 4 = 2*3² + 3 + 1
<u>The fourth term:</u>
- a₄ = 37 = 2*4² + 5 = 2*4² + 4 + 1
<u>The nth term as per observation above is:</u>
For this problem, we use the approach of ratio and proportion. Assuming that the given ratio of 444 days per 230 km is constant all throughout, we can determine the number of days or distance as long as one of the two is given. In this case, the solution is as follows:
444 days/230 km = 161616 days/distance
Distance = 83,720 km
