Mathematics

Vanyuwa [196]2 years ago

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic progression is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a_{6} = 12 and a_{8} = 22, then

a₁ + 5d = 12 → (1)

a₁ + 7d = 22 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁

2d = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

d = 5

Substitute d = 5 into (1) to find a₁

a₁ + 5(5) = 12

a₁ + 25 = 12 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

a₁ = - 13

Thus

a_{2} = - 13 + 5 = - 8

a_{n} = - 13 + 5(n - 1) = - 13 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 18 ← n th term

Answer:

43.82 mph

266.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

S = √30fl

S = speed of car

f = drag Coefficient

l = Length of skid mark

If f = 0.8 ; l = 80 feets

s = √30fl

s = √(30*0.8*80)

s = √1920

s = 43.817

s = 43.82 mph

B.)

s = 80 mph

f = 0.8

s = √30fl

80 = √30*0.8*l

80 = √24l

Square both sides

80² = 24l

6400 = 24l

l = 6400/24

l = 266.67 feets

Given: (3.2 x 103) + (5.78 x 105) Solve the problem. Show and explain all of your work. ??????
qaws [65]
Simple....

you have: (3.2*103)+(5.78*105)

You want to simplify it..but first remember your order of operations...

1.) Remove the parentheses-->>

(3.2*103)=329.6

and

(5.78*105)=606.9

Which leaves you with...

329.6+606.9=

=936.5

Thus, your answer.

The sum of two adjacent sides is 11 inches, so the long sides are 9 inches. The "unknown number" must be 12.
