Answer:

$a_{7}$ = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the next term in the sequence add the common difference to the previous term, thus

a₇ = a₆ + 4 = - 6 + 4 = - 2

Tammy and Wyatt are sales associates at the same used car dealership. Their supervisor is planning to promote the employee with

lisov135 [29]

I think the answer is D. The other answers are unreasonable. Wyatt would not get the promotion and just because Tammy's lowest value is bigger than Wyatt's doesn't mean that Tammy gets the promotion. The only reasonable answer is D.

Un triángulo rectángulo tiene un área de 84 pies2 y una hipotenusa de 25 pies de largo. ¿Cuáles son las longitudes de sus otros

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

7 feet and 24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the right triangle, the hypotenuse is 25 feet long. The area of this triangle is 84 square feet.

Let x feet and y feet be the lengths of triangle's legs.

By the Pythagorean theorem,

$x^2+y^2=25^2\\ \\x^2+y^2=625$

The area of the right triangle is half the product of its legs, thus

$84=\dfrac{1}{2}xy\\ \\xy=168$

Solve the system of two equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x^2+y^2=625\\ \\xy=168\end{array}\right.$

From the second equation:

$x=\dfrac{168}{y}$

Substitute it into the first equation:

$\left(\dfrac{168}{y}\right)^2+y^2=625\\ \\168^2+y^4=625y^2\\ \\y^4-625y^2+168^2=0\\ \\D=(-625)^2-4\cdot 168^2=(625-2\cdot 168)(625+2\cdot 168)=289\cdot 961=17^2\cdot 31\\ \\\sqrt{D}=17\cdot 31=527\\ \\y^2_{1,2}=\dfrac{-(-625)\pm 527}{2}=49,\ 576\\ \\y_1=7,\ y_2=-7,\ y_3=24,\ y_4=-24$
