Just plug in 3 for n and then 5 for n to see if an turns out to be 10 and 26.
n=3:
A) an = 8*3+10 = 34
B) an = 8*3 - 14 = 10 OK
C) an = 16*3+10 = 58
D) an = 16*3 - 38 = 10 OK
n=5:
B) an = 8*5-14 = 26 OK
D) an = 16*5 - 38 = 42
So the answer is B
Answer:
20 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ S is the centroid of ΔNLM
∴ S divides NG at ratio 1 : 2 from the base
∴SQ = 1/2 NS
∴3x - 5 = 1/2 (4x)
∴3x - 5 = 2x
∴3x - 2x = 5
∴x = 5
∴ NS = 4 × 5 = 20 cm
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose number is x
Following equation can be written from question statement

Simplifying it further




2. an=20+an−1 and a1=145
she starts with 145 so a1=145 and then adds 20 every month: an=20+an−1
Answer:
vertex = (- 1, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a parabola in standard form
y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
x = - 
y = x² + 2x + 2 ← is in standard form
with a = 1 and b = 2 , then
x = -
= - 1
substitute x = - 1 into the equation for y- coordinate of vertex
y = (- 1)² + 2(- 1) + 2 = 1 - 2 + 2 = 1
vertex = (- 1, 1 )
