Find the exact area of the circle with the given radius. r = 4.5 m
Alexus [3.1K]
The area of a circle is Pi * R^2 (or R * R).
Since we have our radius, R, we can solve.
With our given answer choices, we do not need to multiply R by Pi, instead we will square R, as that's our only option.
4.5 x 4.5 = 20.25.
Our area is now 20.25Pi.
Your answer is C.) 20.25Pi.
I hope this helps!

Find the 13th term of the arithmetic sequence -3x – 1,42 + 4,112 + 9, ...
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The 13th term is 81<em>x</em> + 59.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the arithmetic sequence:

\displaystle -3x -1, \, 4x +4, \, 11x  + 9 \dots

And we want to find the 13th term.

Recall that for an arithmetic sequence, each subsequent term only differ by a common difference <em>d</em>. In other words:

\displaystyle \underbrace{-3x - 1}_{x_1} + d = \underbrace{4x + 4} _ {x_2}

Find the common difference by subtracting the first term from the second:

d = (4x+4) - (-3x - 1)

Distribute:

d = (4x + 4) + (3x + 1)

Combine like terms. Hence:

d = 7x + 5

The common difference is (7<em>x</em> + 5).

To find the 13th term, we can write a direct formula. The direct formula for an arithmetic sequence has the form:

\displaystyle x_n = a + d(n-1)

Where <em>a</em> is the initial term and <em>d</em> is the common difference.

The initial term is (-3<em>x</em> - 1) and the common difference is (7<em>x</em> + 5). Hence:

\displaystyle x_n = (-3x - 1) + (7x+5)(n-1)

To find the 13th term, let <em>n</em> = 13. Hence:

\displaystyle x_{13} = (-3x - 1) + (7x + 5)((13)-1)

Simplify:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}x_{13} &= (-3x-1) + (7x+5)(12) \\ &= (-3x - 1) +(84x + 60) \\ &= 81x + 59 \end{aligned}

The 13th term is 81<em>x</em> + 59.
