Ulleksa [173]

I am going to graph the situation on an external graphing utility and show you the answer, it will take a

minute, stay with me.

$m\text{ = }\frac{rise\text{ }}{\text{run}}=\frac{change\text{ in y}}{\text{change in x}}=\frac{3}{1}=3$ $y\text{ = mx+b}\rightarrow\text{ b =-1}$

So the equation of the line is.

$y\text{ =3x -1}$ $y\text{ -1 = m(3-0)}$

At the same time a 32-foot water tower casts a 14-foot shadow , a nearby light posts a casts a 7-foot shadow. How tall is the li

Serhud [2]

To solve this problem you can use proportions. The shadow of the water tower and light post are a match, and the height of the water tower and light post are a match. Since we are finding the height of the light post we can replace it with x. The proportion can be set up like this: x/32=7/14. First, multiply 32 and 7 which equals 224. Then take 224 and divide it by the leftover number, 14, and you get 16. So, the answer is c).

The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic series is n/2(3n-5). If the second and fourth terms of the arithmetic series are t

sergiy2304 [10]

Let a be the first term in the arithmetic sequence. Since it's arithmetic, consecutive terms in the sequence differ by a constant d, so the sequence is

a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, …

with the n-th term, a + (n - 1)d.

The sum of the first n terms of this sequence is given:

$a + (a+d) + (a+2d) + \cdots + (a+(n-1)d) = \dfrac{n(3n-5)}2$
