Answer:
A. The description represents an arithmetic sequence because the successive y-values have a common difference of 600
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that this situation is describing would be
This would mean that this equation would be an arithmetic series
diagonal = sqrt(l^ + w^2)
17 = sqrt(10^2 + x^2)
17^2 = 10^2 + x^2
289 = 100 + x^2
189 = x^2
x = sqrt(189) = 13.747
X = 13.75
width is 13.75 inches
Hello.
To find the slope, use the formula:
m= (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
Note: The 2s and 1s are NOT exponents or constants. They are simply markers.
So:
m= (5-(-4)) / (2-0)
m= (5+4) / 2
m = 9/2
Note: The order of the coordinates don't matter as long as y2 is aligned with x2 etc.
Example: (okay)
m= ((-4)-5) / (0-2)
m= -9/ -2
m= 9/2 because a negative multiplied or divided by a negative makes a positive.
Now, let's see what's not okay:
(2,5)(0,-4)
m= (5-(-4)) / (0-2)
NOT. OKAY. since the 1s and 2s aren't aligned.
Hope that helped.
