Answer:

x = 2, or x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2x - 3 is inside the parenthesis (), then the value of x is 2.

If 2x - 3 is inside the absolute value sign, then the value of x will probably be -1.

Solution 1

(10x-15) + 4 = 9

10x -11 = 9

10x = 20 -> x = 2

Solution 2 (Not 100% sure)

|10x -15| +4 = 9

10x + 15 +4 = 9

10x + 19 = 9

10x = -10 -> x = -1

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The recursive formula for an arithmetic sequence is an = an - 1 + d.

LekaFEV [45]

If an is a5
and
an-1 is a4

then using your recursive formula for an arithmetic sequence
an=an-1 +d
then
a5=a4+d

now, a4 =6 and common difference "d" is d=-11
hence
a5=6 -11
6-11= -5

any questions?

The area of the given diagram is 29.817 square centimeters. The given diagram is combination of rectangle and semi circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

Given diagram is combination of Rectangle and Semi circle.

Step:1

Res the attachment,

Area of given diagram = Area of A + Area of B..............(1)

Step:2

For A,

The A section in the given diagram is semi circle,

Diameter of semi circle = Total distance - ( 2+3)

( ∵ 2, 3 are top distance in the given diagram)

$= 10 - 5$

Diameter, d = 5 cm

Radius, $r = \frac{d}{2}$

$r = \frac{5}{2}$

r = 2.5 cm

Area, $A_{A} = \frac {\pi r^{2} }{2}$ ........................(2)

$A_{A} = \frac {\pi (2.5)^{2} }{2}$

$= \frac {\pi ( 6.25) }{2}$

$= \frac{19.63}{2}$

$A_{A} = 9.8174 cm^{2}$

Step:3

For B,

Area of rectangle is,

$A_{B} =lb$ .....................(3)

Where, l - Length = 10 cm

b - Width = 2 cm

Equation (3) become,

$= (10)(2)$

$= 20$

Area of B, $A_{B}$ = 20 $cm^{2}$

Step:4

From the equation (1),

Area of given diagram = 20+ 9.81747

Area = 29.817 square centimeters

Result:

The area of the given diagram is 29.817 square centimeters. The given diagram is combination of rectangle and semi circle.
