The 14th term is equal to -44.
y = 12 - 5x
The sequence can be represented by this function.
Each term is being subtracted by 5.
Using this function we can find the 14th time.
y = 12 - 5(14)
y = 12 - 56
y = -44
1. There were 11 yards mowed. Each yard is represented by an x on the line plot.
2. The most amount of gas used on any one yard was 5/8 of a gallon. The least amount of gas used was 1/8 of a gallon. The difference is (5/8)-(1/8)= (4/8)= 1/2 gallon
Pythagoras Theorem:
hipotenuse²=leg₁²+leg₂²
First posible triangle:
hypotenuse=13 (13²=169)
leg₁=12 ( 12²=144)
leg₂=5 (5²=25)
13³=144 + 25
Answer:can be side lengths of a triangle
Second triangle:
hypotenuse=12.6 (12.6²=158.76)
leg₁=6.7 ( 6.7²=44.89)
leg₂=6.5 (6.5²=42.25)
leg₁²+leg₂²=44.89+42.25=87.14≠158.76
Answer: cannot be side lenghts of a triangle.
third triangle:
hypotenuse=13 (13²=169)
leg₁=12 ( 12²=144)
leg₂=11 (11²=121)
leg₁²+leg₂²=144+121=265≠169
Answer: cannot be side lenghts of a triangle.
fourth triangle:
hypotenuse=13 (13²=169)
leg₁=6 ( 6²=36)
leg₂=4 (4²=16)
leg₁²+leg₁²=36+16=52≠169
Answer: cannot be side lenghts of a triangle.
<span>First we have to find the sum and the difference of those polynomials- The sum is: ( 3 x^5y - 2 x^3y^4 - 7 xy^3 ) + ( - 8 x^5y + 2 x^3y^4 + xy^3 ) = 3 x^5 - 2 x^3y^4 - 7xy^3 - 8 x^5y + 2 x^3y^4 + xy^3 = - 5 x^5y - 6 xy^3. And the difference: ( 3 x^5y - 2 x^3y^4 - 7 xy^3 ) - ( - 8 x^5y + 2 x^3y^4 + xy^3 ) = 3 x^5y - 2 x^3y^4 - 7 xy^3 + 8 xy^5 - 2 x^3y^4 - xy^3 = 11 xy^5 - 4 x^3y^4 - 8xy^3. The highest exponent in both polynomials is 5. Answer: The degree of the polynomials is 5.</span>
