The first term of an arithmetic sequence is -5, and the tenth term is 13. Find the common difference.

Well, this is absolute value, so as a mixed fraction you would have to times the denominator to the whole number, and then add the answer of that to the numerator (2 x 2 x 1). After that, you should get a whole number as an answer, but make it as a fraction. (put the whole number you got on top of the denominator before (2) to make it a fraction). Then, again, since it's absolute value, then it into a negative. Hope this helps and hope it not confusing!!

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation

x+74+37+x+73=180

184+2x=180

-184 -184

2x=-4

x=-2

The isosceles trapezoid is part of an isosceles triangle with a 36° vertex angle. What is the measure of an acute base angle of

alexandr402 [8]

The answer is D) 72, 108

First you have to find out the measure of the two other angles in the triangle. Those two angles will be equivalent.

Because the sum of all three angles in a triangle is 180, you subtract 36 from it (180 - 36 = 144) then divide by 2 (144/2 = 72).

So, the two angles at the bottom of the triangle are each 72. Because those angles are supplementary to the angles at the top of the trapezoid, you subtract 72 from 180 (180 - 72 = 108).

108 + 108 = 216

The sum of all the angles in a trapezoid is 360, so subtract 216 from 360 (360 - 216 = 144) then divide by 2 (144/2 = 72)

Answer:

y intercept = -5 

slope= 4 

equation: y = 4x - 5

EXPLANATION:

FIRST, you must write the formula for a linear graph , which is y = m(x) + c

where y is any y component and x is it's corresponding x component , m is the gradient or slope and c is the constant or y intercept.

SOLUTION:

y = mx + c

finding the gradient (m)

m = y2 - y1

x2 - x1

=( (-1)-(-5) ) ÷ (1-0)

= -1+5 ÷ 1

= 4

Therefore, the slope is 4

finding the y intercept.

y = 4x + c

in the above equation, I substituted the value I had for the slope or the gradient or m.

SO NOW IM ABOUT TO FIND C

TO FIND C, YOU MUST FIRST PICK A CORRESPONDING Y AND X COMPONENT.

I CHOOSE MY Y = 3 and X = 2

Now I'm going to substitute those values into the formula.

(3) = 4(2) + C

since it's an equation with one variable, no need for simultaneous equations.

3 = 8 + c

3-8 = c

-5 = c

 

SO THATS HOW WE ARRIVED AT -5 AND 4.

 WITH THAT, the equation of the line is y = 4x - 5.

I HOPE IT WAS HELPFUL.
