Answer:

a₂ = -3

a₃  = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to  insert two arithmetic means between -5 and 1

Let a₁ and b₂ be the two arithmetic means between -5 and 1

-5, a₂, a₃, 1

Here,

  • a₄ = 1
  • a₁ = -5

We know that the nth term of an Arithmetic sequence

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d

a₄ = -5 + (4-1)d

1 = -5 + 3d    

1  + 5 = 3d

3d = 6

Dividing both sides by 2

d = 2

Also

a₂ = a₁ + (2-1)d

a₂ = -5 + d

a₂ = -5 + 2          ∵ d = 2

a₂  = -3

a₃ = a₁ + (3-1)d

a₃  = -5 + 2d

a₃  = -5 + 2(2)   ∵ d = 2

a₃  = -5 + 4

a₃  = -1

Thus,

a₂ = -3

a₃  = -1

Thus, the sequence becomes:

-5, -3, -3, 1

What is the weight of a square if a triangle weighs 4 grams? Explain your reasoning
stellarik [79]

Answer:

8 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance is in equilibrium, so the weights of the two sides are equal.

Let the weight of a square be s.

Left side: 2s + 4

Right side: s + 3(4) = s + 12

The weights are equal, so we set the two expressions equal.

2s + 4 = s + 12

s = 8

Answer: The weight of a square is 8 grams.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the leg in the triangle shown below 12 15
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

9 = x (assuming 15 is the hypotenuse)

Step-by-step explanation:

15^2 = 12^2 + x^2

225 = 144 + x^2

subtract 144 from both sides

81 = x^2

square root both sides

9 = x
