When solving this equation: −16 + x = −15 we start with adding 16 to both sides. Why do we use addition?

Mathematics

noname [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

We use addition because -16 is negative, and we need to cancel out its value so we add 16 to both sides, leaving 0+x, or x, on the left and combining like terms on the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Parallelogram ABCD is similar to
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The length of GH is 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

Parallelogram ABCD ~ Parallelogram EFGH

Segment BC of parallelogram ABCD corresponds to segment FG of parallelogram EFGH

Similarly

Segment CD of parallelogram ABCD corresponds to segment GH of parallelogram EFGH

In parallelogram ABCD, we have;

Segment BC = 21 in.

Segment CD = 6 in.

In parallelogram ABCD, we have;

Segment FG = 7 in.

Given that parallelogram ABCD is similar to parallelogram EFGH, we have;

\dfrac{\overline{BC}}{\overline{FG}} = \dfrac{\overline{CD}}{\overline{GH}}

Which by substitution, gives;

\dfrac{21}{7} = 3 = \dfrac{6}{\overline{GH}}

\therefore \overline{GH} = \dfrac{6}{3}  = 2

\overline{GH}= 2 inches

To write the explicit rule, we need some information about the following series:
Maslowich

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the common ratio r between consecutive terms of the sequence

r = 6 ÷ 3 = 12 ÷ 6 = 24 ÷ 12 = 48 ÷ 24 = 2

The explicit rule for a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a₁(r)^{n-1}

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Here a₁ = 3 and r = 2, thus

a_{n} = 3(2)^{n-1} ← explicit rule
