$2.50+3x=$9.25, if you need to work it out, then you do $9.25-$2.50. You take your answer and divide by three... whatever your solution is, equals X. There you go!
The answer is D.
Y=2x Y=x(2)-3
2=2(1) 2=3(2)-3
2=2 2=6-3
2=2
<u>Finding x:</u>
We know that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect its angles
So, since US is a diagonal of the given rhombus:
∠RUS = ∠TUS
10x - 23 = 3x + 19 [replacing the given values of the angles]
7x - 23 = 19 [subtracting 3x from both sides]
7x = 42 [adding 23 on both sides]
x = 6 [dividing both sides by 7]
<u>Finding ∠RUT:</u>
We can see that:
∠RUT = ∠RUS + ∠TUS
<em>Since we are given the values of ∠RUS and ∠TUS:</em>
∠RUT = (10x - 23) + (3x + 19)
∠RUT = 13x - 4
<em>We know that x = 6:</em>
∠RUT = 13(6)- 4
∠RUT = 74°
We are given the first term and the common ratio, this means they belong to a geometric series.
For the given series:

Each term of the geometric series is obtained by multiplying the previous term by common ratio.
So the next terms will be:
-4.5, -6.75, -10.125, -15.1875, -22.78125
The general formula for the G.P would be:

On plotting the series, the result will be like this:
