Answer:

$XZ=13\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the right triangle of the figure XYZ

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$XZ^2=XY^2+YZ^2$

substitute the given values

$XZ^2=12^2+5^2$

$XZ^2=144+25$

$XZ^2=169$

square root both sides

$XZ=13\ units$

2. Find the common difference and the recursive formula. a. 22, 19, 16, 13, …

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The common difference d is d = -3

The recursive formula is: $\mathbf{a_n=a_{n-1}-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the common difference and the recursive formula.

a. 22, 19, 16, 13, …

First we will find common difference

The formula of arithmetic sequence is: $a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

where a_n is nth term, a_1 is 1st term and d is the difference

Looking at the sequence we get: a_1=22, a_2=19

Using these values we can find d, the common difference

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\put\:n=2, a_2=19, a_1=22\\19=22+(2-1)d\\19=22+d\\d=19-22\\d=-3$

So, the common difference d is d = -3

Now, we will find the recursive formula:

The recursive formula is of type: $a_n=a_{n-1}+d$

We have found common difference d = -3

So, the recursive formula will be:

$a_n=a_{n-1}+d\\a_n=a_{n-1}+(-3)\\a_n=a_{n-1}-3$

The recursive formula is: $\mathbf{a_n=a_{n-1}-3}$

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

$\%Change = 8.8\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Initial = 51\ cents$

$Final = 55.5\ cents$

Required

Determine the percentage change

Percentage change is calculated as;

$\%Change = \frac{Final - Initial}{Initial} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{55.5 - 51 }{51 } * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{4.5}{51} * 100\%$

$\%Change = \frac{4.5* 100\%}{51}$

$\%Change = \frac{450\%}{51}$

$\%Change = 8.8\%$

<em>Hence, the percentage change is approximately 8.8%</em>
