Answer:

The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$a(1) = -13$

$a(n) = a(n-1) + 4$

Find the 2nd term in the sequence.

This is a(2). So

$a(2) = a(2-1) + 4$

$a(2) = a(1) + 4$

Since a(1) = -13.

$a(2) = -13 + 4 = -9$

The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Answer:

The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

fa(1) = -13

a(n) = a(n-1)+4

Find the 2nd term in the sequence.

The sequence is an Arithmetic sequence.

Here the 1st term = -13

An = A(n-1) + 4

Therefore, the common difference (d) = 4

2nd term = first term + common difference

2nd term = -13 + 4 = -9

The answer is -9.

THEREFORE, The 2nd term in the sequence is -9.

Combining like terms in the given expression makes it simplify to ...

(2x -18x) +(14y) +(9 -10) = -16x +14y -1

We are to compare this expression with the offered expressions to see if they simplify to the same thing. We'll examine those left-to-right starting with the top row:

2x -18x +14y -19 = -16x +14y -19 . . . not the same
-2xy -1 . . . not the same
16x +14y -1 . . . not the same
9 -16x +14y -10 = -16x +14y -1 . . . equivalent
-16x +14y -1 . . . equivalent and simplified
2x -18x +14y -1 = -16x +14y -1 . . . equivalent

Find the length of diagonal AC in the rectangle at the right show you’re work plss

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 10 be a, and 24 be b, and the undefined hypotenuse be c.

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

$10^2 + 24^2 = c^2$

100 + 576 = c

c = 676

$\sqrt{100} + \sqrt{576} = \sqrt{676}$

$10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2$

c = 26

The value of the undefined line is 26.

4. Sqrt 45

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing side of a right triangle, use the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem is $a^2+b^2=c^2$ where a and b are the legs with a being the smallest and c is the hypotenuse.
