Answer:

a2=12 (the second term of the sequence is 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

a5=324

If the term to term rule is multiply by any number, we deal with geometrical sequence

The formula you should use is an= a1*r^(n-1) where n is the number of the term which we know. In our case we know

a5, so use 5 instead of n

Then you have a5=a1*r^4 where r is the number 3 (because each next term is greater than previous in 3 times)

a5=324

324= a1*3^4

324=a1*81

a1=4 (We find the first term of sequence, because having it you can easily search for every term )

Return to the formula an= a1*r^n-1

Now search for the second term using 2 instead of n in the formula

a2= a1*r^1

a2=a1*r, a1=4, r=3

a2=4*3=12

To answer this question you would set this up as an equation with all the information about Al on one side being equal to all the information for Matthew on the other side. This is what it would look like: $25 + $9h= $14h. h represents the number of hours they work. It they each worked 5 hours a week, they would make the same amount of money. I determined this by solving the equation for h. I subtracted 9h on both sides leaving you with $25=5h. H would equal 5 hours.

Find the cosine of angle p

zlopas [31]

Answer: last option

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the identity:

$cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

You need to find the cosine of angle P, then, you can identify in the figure that:

$adjacent=PR=21\\hypotenuse=PQ=29\\\alpha=P$

Therefore, the next step is substitute these values into $cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ , then you get:

$cos(P)=\frac{21}{29}$

You can observe that this matches with the last option.
