Answer:

UN = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

(4x - 3)² = (3x + 3)² + x² ← distribute both sides

16x² - 24x + 9 = 9x² + 18x + 9 + x² ← simplify

16x² - 24x + 9 = 10x² + 18x + 9 ( subtract 10x² + 18x + 9 from both sides )

6x² - 42x = 0 ← factor out 6x from each term

6x(x - 7) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

6x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 7

Hence UN = x = 7 and SU = 4x - 3 = (4 × 7) - 3 = 28 - 3 = 25

Find the perimeter of the window to the nearest hundredth.<br><br> also how do you do it?
k0ka [10]

  • <em>I am assuming the picture is of a stained glass window in the shape of a semicircle</em>.

Answer: 7.71 feet.

Step-by-step explanation: <em>The formula for finding the circumference of a circle is \frac{1}{2} π × d + d.</em>

The diameter is 3 feet. Substitute this into the equation:

\frac{1}{2} π × 3 + 3.

Solve -

3.14 × 3 = 9.42

\frac{1}{2} of 9.42 = 4.71

4.71+3 = 7.71

Round -

The answer is already rounded.

Hope this helped!~

Consider the recursively defined function below. f(1)=-5.25 f(n)=f(n-1)+1.75, for n=2,3,4,.... Create the first five terms of th
andrezito [222]
N=1→f(n)=f(1)=-5.25 (First term)
f(n)=f(n-1)+1.75, for n=2, 3, 4, ...

Second term:
n=2→f(2)=f(2-1)+1.75=f(1)+1.75=-5.25+1.75→f(2)=-3.5

Third term:
n=3→f(3)=f(3-1)+1.75=f(2)+1.75=-3.5+1.75→f(3)=-1.75

Fourth term:
n=4→f(4)=f(4-1)+1.75=f(3)+1.75=-1.75+1.75→f(4)=0

Fifth term:
n=5→f(5)=f(5-1)+1.75=f(4)+1.75=0+1.75→f(5)=1.75

Answer:
Sequence of the terms:
First, second, third, fourth, fifth:
-5.25, -3.5, -1.75, 0, 1.75
