Answer:

aₙ = a₁ - 6* (n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ = 13 = 13 - 6* (1-1)

a₂ = 7 = 13 - 6 * 1 = 13- 6*(2-1)

a₃ = 1 = 7 - 1 = 13 - 6 * 2 = 13 - 6 * (3-1)

........

aₙ = a₁ - 6* (n-1)

check: a₅ = 13 - 6*4 = -11

a triangle pyramid with an equilateral base has a side length of 10 centimeters and a surface area of 214.5 square meters. find

sweet [91]

Area of the base = 1/2 * 10 * 5sqrt3 = 25 sqrt3

Total surface area = 25 sqrt3 + 3 * 1/2 * 10 * slant height = 214.5

25 sqrt3 + 15h = 214.5
15h = 214.5 - 25 sqrt3

h = (214.5 - 25sqrt3() / 15

= 11.41 cm to nearest hundredth

Given :-

a² - 2a - b² = 0
2b + 2ab = 0

To find :-

Value of a and b .

Solution :-

Taking second equation:-

2b + 2ab = 0
2b ( 1 + a ) = 0
2b = 0 or (1+a) = 0
b = 0 , a = -1

Substitute in first equation :-

a² - 2a - b² = 0

When b = 0 ,

a² - 2a - 0² = 0
a² - a = 0
a( a -1) =0
a = 0 , 1

When a = -1 ,

(-1)² - 2*(-1) - b² = 0
1 + 2 - b² = 0
b² = 3
b = ±√3

Answer :-

a = 0,1 ; b = 0
a = -1 , b = ±√3

Diagram shows a section of a bridge between the points A and K. The length of line segment is 640 meters. ∆ABC, ∆CDF, and ∆FJK a

Marta_Voda [28]

AK = 640
Δ ABC and ΔFJK are similar. They are small triangles.
ΔCDF is the big triangle.

640 / 2 = 320 m= CF
AC & FK= 320/2 = 160 m each

2AC = CF = 2FK
2(160) = 320 = 2(160)

BG = 20 m

20/160 = x / 320
20*320 = 160x
6400 = 160x
6400/160 = x
40 = x

Area of CDF = (40 m * 320 m)/2 = 12,800 / 2= 6,400 m²
