Answer:
7) BC = 10
8) BD = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
7) The segment addition theorem tells you ...
AB +BC +CD = AD
(3x+2) +(2x+4) +(3x-2) = 28
8x +4 = 28 . . . . collect terms
8x = 24 . . . . . . . subtract 4
x = 3 . . . . . . . . . divide by 8
BC = 2x+4 = 2(3) +4
BC = 10
__
8) AB +BD = AC +CD
(2x -14) +(-7 +3x) = (2x -3) +(9)
5x -21 = 2x +6
3x = 27
x = 9
BD = -7 +3x = -7 +3(9)
BD = 20
Answer:
= 5n
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference d between consecutive terms
d = 10 - 5 = 15 - 10 = 20 - 15 = 25 - 20 = 30 - 25 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with explicit formula
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 5 and d = 5 , then
= 5 + 5(n - 1) = 5 + 5n - 5 = 5n
ANSWER
Find out the how long will the Yellow balloon be higher than the orange balloon.
To proof
Now the diagram is given below
As given
A yellow hot-air balloon is 100 feet off the ground and rising at rate of 8 feet per second.
i.e height of the yellow baloon off the ground = 100 feet
rising at rate = 8 feet per second.
.An orange hot-air balloon is 160 feet off the ground and rising at a rate of 5 feet per second.
i.e height of the orange baloon off the ground = 160 feet
rising at rate = 5feet per second.
Formula

Relative velocity = rising rate of yellow balloon - rising rate of orange balloon
= 8 -5
= 3 feet per second
Relative distance = height of the yellow baloon off the ground - height of the orange baloon off the ground
= 160 -100
= 60 feet
put in the formula

= 20 second
after 20 second Yellow balloon will be higher than the orange balloon.
Hence proved
