The explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence shown in the graph is a↓n=9.5+2(n-1)
Virty [35]

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit form for an arithmetic sequence is:

a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

where a_1 is the first term and d is the common difference.

The common difference here is 2 because the y's are going up by 2 while the x's are going up by 1.

Yes, the common difference is the slope.

So we have d=2.

The first term is 9.5 because that is what happens when x=1.

x is n.

y is a_n.

So the answer is true.

----

You can also verify by plugging in numbers for n and see if you get the outputs mentioned in the pairs given:

Let n=1:

a_1=9.5+2(1-1)

a_1=9.5+2(0)

a_1=9.5+0

a_1=9.5

Let n=2:

a_2=9.5+2(2-1)

a_2=9.5+2(1)

a_2=9.5+2

a_2=11.5

Let n=3:

a_3=9.5+2(3-1)

a_3=9.5+2(2)

a_3=9.5+4

a_3=13.5

Let n=4:

a_4=9.5+2(4-1)

a_4=9.5+2(3)

a_4=9.5+6

a_4=15.5

Let n=5:

a_5=9.5+2(5-1)

a_5=9.5+2(4)

a_5=9.5+8

a_5=17.5

Let n=6:

a_6=9.5+2(6-1)

a_6=9.5+2(5)

a_6=9.5+10

a_6=19.5

We have confirmed that we get all 6 of the mentioned points using the equation they gave.

Select the correct answer. Consider the following system of equations. Use this graph of the system to approximate its solution.
vesna_86 [32]

The approximate solution to the given system of equations, considering the graph, is given as follows:

D. \left(-\frac{13}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right).

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

On a graph, the solution of a system of equations is given by the intersection between the curves. In this graph, the intersection of the two curves happen close to x = -3.25, y = 2.5, hence the solution is approximated by:

D. \left(-\frac{13}{4}, \frac{5}{2}\right)

Tell me what each angle is in the following triangle: angle 1 is 8x, angle 2 is 2x+3, angle 3: 30 degrees. give me the two answe
9966 [12]
Answer:  117.6° ;  32.4° .
_________________________
Explanation:
_______________________________________________________
Note: ALL triangles, by definition, have exactly 3 (THREE) sides and exactly 3 (THREE) angles.   
_____________________
We are given the following:
_______________________
We have a triangle.

Angle 1:  m∡1 = (8x) ;

Angle 2:  m∡2 = (2x + 3) ;

Angle 3:  m∡3 = 30.
______________________________________
We are asked to find:  "m∡1"  and " m∡2" .
______________________________________
Note: In ALL TRIANGLES, the measurements of all THREE (3) angles ALWAYS add up to 180 degrees.
________________________________________
   So, " m∡1 + m∡2 + m∡3 = 180 " . 
________________________________________
Let us substitute our given values for the measurements in EACH of
the THREE (3) angles — on the left-hand side of the equation;  then solve for "x" ;  then substitute that solved value for "x" into the given expressions for BOTH  "m∡1" AND "m∡2" ; to find the values for " m∡1" AND " m∡2 " ; which are the values asked for in this very question ; 
___________________________________________
 
                m∡1 + m∡2 + m∡3 = 180  ; 
___________________________________________
             8x + (2x + 3) + 30 = 180 ;
___________________________________________
             8x + 2x + 3 + 30 = 180 ;
___________________________________________
  Combine the "like terms" on the 'left-hand side" of the equation; to simplify:
____________________________________________________________
            +8x + 2x = +10x ;
___________________________________________
              +3 + 30 = +33 ; 
___________________________________________
  Rewrite the entire equation, as:
___________________________________________
         10x + 33 = 180 ; 
___________________________________________
 Now, subtract "33" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
___________________________________________
         10x + 33 − 33 = 180 −<span> 33 ;
___________________________________________
 to get:
___________________________________________
         10x    =   147 ;  
____________________________________________
   Now, divide EACH side of the equation by "10" ; to isolate "x" on ONE SIDE of the equation; and to solve for "x" : 
____________________________________________
         10x / 10 = 147 / 10 ; 
____________________________________________
   to get: 
____________________________________________
              x = 14.7 ;
___________________________________________
    Now, given the following, we plug in our solved value, "14.7", for "x", into the expression given for "m</span>∡1" and "m∡2";  as follows:
________________________________________________

Angle 1:  "(8x)" = 8*(14.7) =  117.6° ; 
________________________________________________
Angle 2:  "2x + 3" = 2*(14.7) + 3 = 29.4 + 3 = 32.4° ;
________________________________________________
These are the two answers; that is the 2 (TWO) values asked for in the question:   117.6° ;  32.4° .
<span>____________________________________</span><span>
 Do they make sense? That is, do the measurements of ALL 3 (THREE) angles; that is, our two solved measurements added together, and then added to the value of the third angle (given: "m</span>∡3 = 30°); all add up to 180° ?
___________________________________________
Let us check:
_______________________________
   m∡1  +  m∡2  +  m∡3 = 180 ; 
_______________________________
Plugging in our solved values for "m∡1" and "m∡2" ; and our given value: "30" — for "m∡3 — does the equation hold true?
______________________________________________
   → 117.6 + 32.4 + 30 = ? 180 ??
______________________________________________
   → 117.6 + 32.4 = 150  ;   → 150 + 30 =? 180 ?  Yes!

I dont understand this question.Help?
Maurinko [17]

the first step Andre made was

2x+6=3x-8

or, -x+6=-8

And the first step Diego made was

2x+6=3x-8

or, +6=3x-2x

or, 6=x-8
