Mathematics

Answer:

a_{n} = - 3n

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is

- 6 - (- 3) = - 9 - (- 6) = - 12 - (- 9) = - 3

This indicate the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 3 and d = - 3 , thus

a_{n} = - 3 - 3(n - 1) = - 3 - 3n + 3 = - 3n

The n th term is - 3n

Use the quadratic formula to determine the exact solutions to the equation. 6x2+4x−3=0 Enter your answers in the boxes. x = or x

The quadratic formula is x= -b +/- √b²-4ac / 2a

In this problem,

a=6
b=4
c=-3

Now, we can plug this into the formula:

x= -4 +/- √4²-(4)(6)(-3) / (2)(6)
x= -4 +/- √16+72 / 12
x= -4 +/- √88 /12
x= -4 +/- 2√22 /12
x= -2 +/- √22 / 6

So,

x= -2 + √22 / 6
x= -2 - √22 / 6

43 5/12 x 11 Please help
zzz [600]
The perimeter is the sum of side lengths. Opposite sides of a rectangle are the same length, so the perimeter is
  P = 11 +43 5/12 +11 +43 5/12
    = 2(11 +43 5/12)
    = 2(54 5/12)
  P = 108 5/6 . . . . feet

The area is the product of length and width. It doesn't matter which of the given dimensions you consider length or width, since you multiply them either way.
  A = 11 * 43 5/12
    = 473 +55/12
  A = 477 7/12 . . . . square feet

KE = 0 (because velocity is 0)  

PE = mgh = 2kg*9.8m/s^2*40m= 784 joule

<u>Explanation:</u>

KE stands for kinetic energy. In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity.

Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. Since in this case, the building is still and therefore it does not have any kind of kinetic energy because there is not acceleration.
