Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for an arithmetic sequence is
where n is the position of the number in the sequence, a1 is the first number in the sequence, and d is the difference between the numbers in the sequence.
Our first number is 2, so a1 = 2; to get from 2 to 5 we add 3, to get from 5 to 8 we add 3. That means that d = 3. Filling in the standard form of the equation:
which simplifies to
and a bit more to
(which should tell you that arithmetic sequences are lines!)
Finding the 13th number simply requires that we replace n with 13 and solve:
so
For this case what you should do is use the following trigonometric relationship:
sin (x) = C.O / h
Where
x: angle
C.O: opposite leg
h: hypotenuse
Substituting the values we have:
sen (60) = long / h
sen (60) = 3 / h
h = 3 / sin (60)
h = 3.46
Answer:
h = 3.46
50=3x+b. you never specify the variable that replaces b
