Which one is a rule for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence with a8 = 56 and d = 5?

1 answer:

7 0

An for arithmetic sequence, an = a + (n - 1)d
a8 = a + (8 - 1) x 5 = a + 7 x 5 = a + 35 = 56
a = 56 - 35 = 21

Therefore, an = 21 + (n - 1) x 5 = 21 + 5n - 5 = 16 + 5n
an = 16 + 5n

What are the potential solutions of log4x+log4(x+6)=2?

lions [1.4K]

The potential solutions of $log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2$ are 2 and -8.

<h3>Properties of Logarithms</h3>

From the properties of logarithms, you can rewrite logarithmic expressions.

The main properties are:

Product Rule for Logarithms - $log_{b}(a*c)=log_{b}a+log_{b}c$
Quotient Rule for Logarithms - $log_{b}(\frac{a}{c} )=log_{b}a-log_{b}c$
Power Rule for Logarithms - $log_{b}(a^c)=c*log_{b}a$

The exercise asks the potential solutions for $log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2$ . In this expression you can apply the Product Rule for Logarithms.

$log_4x+log_4(x+6)=2\\ \\ x*(x+6)=4^2\\ \\ x^2+6x=16\\ \\ x^2+6x-16=0$

Now you should solve the quadratic equation.

Δ= $b^2-4ac=36-4*1*(-16)=36+64=100$ . Thus, x will be $x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-6\pm \:\sqrt{100} }{2\cdot \:1}=\frac{-6\pm \:10}{2}$ . Then:

$x_1=\frac{-6+10}{2}=\frac{4}{2} =2\\ \\ \:x_2=\frac{-6-10}{2}=\frac{-16}{2} =-8$

The potential solutions are 2 and -8.

Two angles are said to be complementary, if the sum of the measures of the to angles is equal to 90 degrees.

Thus, given that HFG is complementary to ACB, them mHFG + mACB = 90 degrees.

From the figure, given that the line from point F meats line CE at point P, then HFG = CFP.
But mCFE = 90 degrees and mCFE = mCFP + mPFE
Also PFE = DFH

Thus, mCFE = mCFP + mPFE = mHFG + mDFH = 90 degrees

Recall that mHFG + mACB = 90 degrees

Thus, mHFG + mACB = mHFG + mDFH

Therefore, mACB = mDFH.
