Mathematics
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

For an nth term U(n) = a + (n - 1)d

n = number of terms

a = first term

d = common difference

a = 5

d = 2 - 5 = - 3

U(n) = 5 + (n -1)-3

= 5 - 3n + 3

= 8 - 3n

The formula for the sequence is 8 - 3n

Hope this helps

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

  Rocket B reaches a maximum height that is greater than the maximum height of Rocket A.

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph quickly shows the answer to this question.

__

In vertex form, the equation for Rocket A is ...

  y = -6(x² -16x +8²) +6(8²)

  y = -6(x -8)² +384 . . . . . . . . . maximum height is 384 feet

__

The corresponding equation for Rocket B is ...

  y = -4(x² -20x +10²) +4(10²)

  y = -4(x -10)² +400 . . . . . . . . maximum height is 400 feet

Rocket B reaches a maximum height greater than that of Rocket A.

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.<br><br> cm
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

50.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve.  Put the smaller triangle side over the larger triangle side.

x               46.2-14   (This is the length of the short side of the triangle)

--------- = -------------

72.6            46.2

Using cross products

46.2 *x = (46.2-14)  *72.6

46.2 *x = (32.2)  *72.6

46.2 *x = (32.2)  *72.6

46.2x =2337.72

Divide each side by 46.2

46.2/46.2 *x = 2337.72/46.2

x = 50.6
