Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
The first figure has 1 square. The second figure has a column of 2 squares added to the left. The third figure has a column of 3 squares added to the left. Each new figure has a column of squares added to the left containing the same number of squares as the number of the figure.
b.
Figure 10 has 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55 squares.
c.
The formula for adding n positive integers starting at 1 is:
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n = n(n + 1)/2
For figure 55, n = 55.
n(n + 1)/2 = 55(56)/2 = 1540
d.
Let's use the formula set equal to 190 and solve for n. If n is an integer, then we can.
n(n + 1)/2 = 190
n(n + 1) = 380
We know that 380 = 19 * 20, so n = 19.
Answer: yes
e.
Use the formula above,
S = n(n + 1)/2, where S is the sum.
f.
n(n + 1) = 1478
38 * 39 = 1482
37 * 38 = 1406
Find the equation of the first line using the two given points: (1,-1) (-1,-5)
Slope = change in Y over change in x:
Slope = (-5-(-1)) / (-1-(1) = -4/-2 = 2
Now find y intercept: y - y1 = m(x-x1) = y -(-1) = 2(x-1)
Simplify to get y = 2x-3
Now a perpendicular line has a opposite reciprocal slope.
The perpendicular line would be y = -1/2x - 3
You are told the y intercept is -4 units greater, so add -4 to -3 to get -7
The answer would be A. y = -1/2x-7
Answer:
4x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x+3)=4x+12.
You use the distributive property by multiplying both numbers in the parentheses by 4
