What is a35 for the arithmetic sequence presented in the table below?

Answer: choice B) a35 = -118

=====================================================

Explanation:

When n = 5, an = 32 as shown in the first column of the table. This means the fifth term is 32. Plug in those values to get

an = a1+d(n-1)

32 = a1+d(5-1)

32 = a1+4d

Solve for a1 by subtracting 4d from both sides

a1 = 32-4d

We'll plug this in later

Turn to the second column of the table. We have n = 10 and an = 7. Plug those values into the formula

an = a1+d(n-1)

7 = a1 + d(10-1)

7 = a1+9d

Now substitute in the equation in which we solved for a1

7 = a1+9d

7 = 32-4d+9d ... replace a1 with 32-4d

7 = 32+5d

5d = 7-32

5d = -25

d = -25/5

d = -5

This tells us that we subtract 5 from each term to get the next term.

Use this d value to find a1

a1 = 32-4d

a1 = 32-4*(-5)

a1 = 32+20

a1 = 52

The first term is 52

--------------

The nth term formula is therefore

an = 52 + (-5)(n-1)

which simplifies to

an = -5n + 57

To check this result, plug in n = 5 to find that a5 = 32. Similarly, you'll find that a10 = 7 after plugging in n = 10. I'll let you do these checks.

--------------

Replace n with 35 to find the 35th term

an = -5n + 57

a35 = -5(35) + 57

a35 = -175 + 57

a35 = -118

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The value of x is 10º.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Euclidean Geometry we remember that the sum of internal angles within a triangle equals to 180º. We present the resulting triangle after applying some geometric handling in the image attached below. Then, the triangle satisfies the following equation:

100^{\circ} + (80^{\circ}-5\cdot x)+(4\cdot x +10^{\circ}) = 180^{\circ} (1)

190^{\circ} - x = 180^{\circ}

x = 10^{\circ}

The value of x is 10º.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:3 3/4 hour

If 1/5 takes 3/4 hours, then to travel the whole distance, which is one, it will take 3/4 * 5 hours because 1/5 * 5 =  1

In the figure below what is the value of x?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The value of x is 106

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

In the given figure

∵ The triangle in the given figure has two sides equal

→ That means the triangle is an isosceles triangle

∴ The triangle is isosceles

∵ In the isosceles triangle, the base angles are equal in measures

∵ The measure of one base angle is 37°

∴ The measure of other base angle is 37°

→ The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a Δ is 180°

∵ 37° + 37° + x = 180°

→ Add the like terms

∴ 74° + x = 180°

→ Subtract 74 from both sides

∵ 74 - 74 + x = 180 - 74

∴ x = 106

∴ The value of x is 106
