Mario earns $8.250. Solution:
Elena = x
MArio = 3x

Equation:
x + 3x = 11,000
4x = 11,000
x = 2,750

Mario = 3x ; 3(2,750) = 8,250

The 4th term of an arithmetic sequence is 24 and the 12th term is 56, what is the first term?

spin [16.1K]

First term = 12
Solution:
A4 = 24
A12 = 56
An = A1 + (n-1)d; this defines the formula of an arithmetic series
A4 = 24 = A1 + (4-1)d
A4 = 24 = A1 + 3d
A12 = 56 = A1 + (12-1)d
A12 = 56 = A1 + 11d
Subtract A4 from A12 to get d (distance)
(56 = A1 + 11d) - (24 = A1 +3d)
32 = 8d
d = 4
Substitute d = 4 into A4
A4 = 24 = A1 + 3(d)
24 = A1 + 3(4)
24 = A1 + 12
24 - 12 = A1
12 = A1

Natalija [7]

Answer:

A) $\frac{15}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

remember Soh Cah Toa!!

$sin=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\ cos=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} \\tan=\frac{opposite}{adjacent} \\\\cos=\frac{8}{17}\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\8^2+b^2=17^2\\64+b^2=289\\b^2=225\\\sqrt{b^2} =\sqrt{225}\\b=15=opposite\\\\tan=\frac{15}{8}$
