True I think cause it’s divided by 5
Answer:
-2n²
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the image attached:
We see that the second differences (blue ones) are all equal so we conclude that this is a quadratic sequence.
The quadratic sequence has the form:

To find the value of a we just divide second difference ( -4 ) by 2:
Now we have:
Substitute
and
into the equation above:
Since
= -2 and
= -8 , after simplification we have:
The solution of this system is:
The general term is :

Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
consecutive even numbers are 2,4, 6...
Let the smallest of the 3 numbers be x.
2nd number= x+2
3rd number
=x+2+2
= x+4
sum of the 3 numbers= x +x+2 +x+4
114= 3x+6
3x= 114 -6 (-3 on both sides)
3x= 108 (simplify)
x= 108 ÷3
x= 36
Thus, the smallest number is 36.
Let's check!
36+38+40= 114 ✓
In this instance the distance will be the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle.
x = 300/sin30 = 600
They are 600 ft away from each other
