MULTIPLE CHOICE 9th grade math: help me find the formula to the nth term:

Mathematics
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a_{n} = - 5n - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference between consecutive terms, that is

- 12 - (- 7) = - 17 - (- 12) = - 5

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 7 and d = - 5, then

a_{n} = - 7 - 5(n - 1) = - 7 - 5n + 5 = - 5n - 2

The midpoint of MN is point P at (–4, 6). If point M is at (8, –2), what are the coordinates of point N?
tester [92]
The midpoint of a line segment is the average of the endpoint's coordinates, mathematically:

mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)

In this case:

(-4,6)=((8+x)/2, (-2+y)/2)

(-8,12)=((8+x),(y-2))

(-16, 14)=(x,y)

The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2 left-bracket (12 + 2 x) + (15 + 2 x) right-bracket = 74. What is t
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

2 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do the step by step calculation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(12+2x+15+2x)=74

(2)(12)+(2)(2x)+(2)(15)+(2)(2x)=74(Distribute)

24+4x+30+4x=74

(4x+4x)+(24+30)=74(Combine Like Terms)

8x+54=74

8x+54=74

Step 2: Subtract 54 from both sides.

8x+54−54=74−54

8x=20

Step 3: Divide both sides by 8.

8x divide by 8 and that is 20 divided by 8

leaves you with the answer 5/2.

If you then turn the improper fraction into a mixed fraction you get 2 and one half.

Answer= 2 1/2 or "a" <u>DEPENDS ON WHAT QUIZ YOU HAVE</u>
