The answer is X=19/2 y=10
Find rates of change until you find a constant.
dy/dx=1,2,3,4,5,6
d2y/dx2=1,1,1,1,1
So the acceleration, d2y/d2x, is constant. This means that this is a quadratic sequence of the form a(n)=an^2+bn+c. So we can set up a system of equations to solve for the values of a,b, and c. Using the first three points, (1,1), (2,2), and (3,4) we have:
9a+3b+c=4, 4a+2b+c=2, and a+b+c=1 getting the differences...
5a+b=2 and 3a+b=1 and getting this difference...
2a=1, so a=1/2 making 5a+b=2 become:
2.5+b=2, so b=-1/2, making a+b+c=1 become:
1/2-1/2+c=1, so c=1 so the rule is:
a(n)=0.5x^2-0.5x+1 or if you prefer to not have decimals
a(n)=(x^2-x+2)/2
175 students walk to school. 7+5=12 and 420 divided by 12 is 35. I checked how I did it was correct because of 5*35+7*35=420. Then I found the product of 5*35 which is 175.
Answer: 12.37ft
<h2 />
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find the missing side of a triangle is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
so all you have to do is put 3 and 12
3^2 + 12^2 = c^2
9 + 144 = c^2
153 = c^2
√153 = 12.37
