Mathematics
1 answer:
Contact [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

an = 3n - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic progression is expressed as;

an = a + (n-1)d

a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

a8 = a + (8-1)d

a8 = a + 7d = 21 ....1

a10 = a+9d = 27 ....2

Subtract 1 from 2

7d  - 9d = 21 - 27

-2d = -6

d = -6/-2

d = 3

Since a + 7d = 21

a + 7(3) = 31

a + 21 = 21

a = 21 - 21

a = 0

Get the nth term

Recall that an = a + (n-1)d

an = 0 + (n-1)*3

an = 3n - 3

Hence the nth term of the sequence is 3n - 3

What do you know about distance? math
serg [7]

Answer: Mathematical distance is defined as the amount of space between two points. This distance can be calculated using the distance formula, which is just a derivation of the Pythagorean theorem, which is used to find the length of any one side of a right triangle when you know the other two sides

A line segment with endpoints A = (3, 0) and B = (7,0). Then, plot all points
eduard

Answer:

C(0,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) find the length of the base of the triangle

AB = 7-3 = 4

2) find the the height of the triangle

A = (base x height)/2

A x 2 = base x height

height = (A x 2)/base

height = (12 x 2)/4 = 6

3) find the equation of the line that passes threw the points AB

the two points have the same y so the equation of the line is

y = 0

4) use the formula of the distance between a point and a line to find C

|ax+by+c|/√a^2 + b^2 = distance

x = 0  

y = 6

C (0,6)
