Their total points for the first 10 games were
(10) x (35) = 350 total .
Their total points after 11 games were
(11) x (33) = 363 total .
They must have scored (363 - 350) = 13 points in that 11th game.
I hate to say it, but these kids and their coach are in the wrong game.
Answer:5
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the question in reverse you can backtrack your way through. Take 10 and instead of dividing, multiply it by 10, which is 60, add 6 instead of subtracting, which is 66, divide by 6 instead of multiplying, which is 11 and finally subtract 6 instead of adding, which is 5. Use five and try the question over to make sure you calculated correct.
In a geometric sequence each number after the first is found by multiplying the previous number by a fixed number called the common ratio.
In an arithmetic sequence, each term is equal to the previous term plus or minus a constant called the common difference.
In your problem we have a sequence of numbers that appears to be decreasing in value, but on the surface it doesn't appear to be by any constant number... but if you look closely, the denominator 34 is exactly twice the other denominator 17. This would lead me to look at a common denominator to see if anything takes shape...
9/17 = 18/34
15/34
6/17 = 12/34
9/34
Now we see that each number is the previous number minus 3/34, so we have a common difference of 3/34.
This would match the definition of an arithmetic sequence and NOT a geometric sequence.
Remark
You must use the sin law to find this.
Multiply through by 12
12 * *12
0.5269 = sin(x)
Now you have to use the inverse of the sine function.
Use your calculator for that
2nd F
sin-1
(0.5269)
= 31.79 degrees. <<<<<< Answer.
There sometimes is a second answer. I don't think there is in this case.
