199 is the answer because the equation you use is an=a1+d(n-1). Where an (the n is actually supposed to be smaller than the a) is the nth term (a40), a1 (1 smaller than a) is the first term (4), d is the difference (5), and n is the number of the term you're looking for (40)
<em>BD</em> = 56
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: In rectangle, the diagonals are congruent and bisect each other.
So, <em>AC</em> = <em>BD</em>
⇒<em>AG</em> + <em>GC</em> = <em>BG</em> + <em>GD</em>
⇒<em>AG</em> + <em>AG</em> = <em>GD</em> + <em>GD</em>
⇒ 2<em>AG</em> = 2<em>GD</em>
⇒<em>AG</em> = <em>GD</em>
⇒ –7<em>j </em>+ 7 = 5<em>j</em> + 43
⇒–7<em>j</em> – 5<em>j</em> = 43 – 7
⇒–12<em>j</em> = 36
⇒<em>j</em> = –3
Step 2: <em>BD</em> = 2<em>DG</em>
<em>BD</em> = 2(5<em>j</em> + 43)
= 2(5 (–3) + 43)
= 2(–15 + 43)
= 2 × 28
= 56
Hence, <em>BD</em> = 56.
Answer:
All three.
Step-by-step explanation:
All three of these ratios are equivalent to 15:5. Here's how:
Let's look at the first ratio, 9:3. Did you notice something common? 3 x 3 = 9. 9/3 = 3. 5 x 3 = 15. 15/3 = 5. Both of these numbers are divisible by 3, so these ratios are equivalent.
Second. 6:2. 2 x 3 = 6. 6/3 = 2. 5 x 3 = 15. 15/3 = 5. See the similarity? The same applies to the next problem, number three, although it does slightly differentiate.
Third, 3:1. See, here, since the ratio is smaller than the problem, we can't multiply, since this ratio is smaller than the original number. But, it's still the same thing. A ratio is a number that compares a value to another value. This means that 3:1 is 3 compared to one. Now, let me clarify. 15:5. 3:1. These are the exact same values, except they are just written in a different form, and simplified. Since 5 x 3 = 15, we know that we can divide 15 evenly by 5, which makes it 3, and divide 5 evenly by 5, which equals one. So here we have our answer for the third problem. 5:1.
Ratios are basically division, except simplified. Every single ratio problem works this way. Once you get the hang of it, it's immensely easy. Hope this helped!
Usually, quadratic equations equal 0, and to find the solution you need to make x equal the value that, when added or subtracted to the rest of its bracket, makes 0. This means that your answer is (x + 5)(x - 2) = 0, because 5 - 5 = 0 and 2 - 2 = 0. I hope this helps! Let me know if you would like me to explain further :)
