B because the distance between p to b is 1/4 of the line and the distance between p to a is 3/4 of the line

What is the sum of all of the perfect squares between

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

(-138) is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect square numbers between 15 and 25 inclusive are 16 and 25.

Sum of perfect square numbers 16 and 25 = 16 + 25 = 41

Sum of the remaining numbers between 15 and 25 inclusive means sum of the numbers from 17 to 24 plus 15.

Since sum of an arithmetic progression is defined by the expression

$S_{n}=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]$

Where n = number of terms

a = first term of the sequence

d = common difference

$S_{8}=\frac{8}{2} [2\times 17+(8-1)\times 1]$

= 4(34 + 7)

= 164

Sum of 15 + $S_{8}$ = 15 + 164 = 179

Now the difference between 41 and sum of perfect squares between 15 and 25 inclusive = $41-179$

= -138

Therefore, answer is (-138).

The length of a rectangular box is less than 2 inches more than the width. if the length is 7 inches, what is the area of the bo

kifflom [539]

They tell you that the length is 7 inches and that it is 2 inches more than the width therefore you can conclude that: length = 7 and the width = 5
you can plug the values given into the formula listed below:

A = lw
A = 7 x 5
A = 35

hope this helps :)

Which statement is true?

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

$y=log_{1} x$ is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A logarithmic function is of the form: $y=log_{b}x$

For a logarithmic function to exist, we must fulfill certain conditions. The conditions are

i. The base, $b$ , is greater than 0. ${b>0)$

ii. The base, $b$ , is not equal to 1. $(b\ne 1)$

iii. $x$ must be greater than 0. $(x>0)$

Now, if we observe all the choices given, we conclude that the third choice is correct as the base there is 1. If base is equal to 1, then it violates the definition of logarithmic functions. So, the correct choice is:

$y=log_{1} x$ is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.
