Answer:

a) the common difference is 20

b) x_8=115 , x_{12}=195

c) the common difference is -13

d) a_{12}=52, a_{15}=13

Step-by-step explanation:

a) what is the common difference of the sequence xn

Looking at the table, we get x_3=16, x_4=36 and x_5= 56

Deterring the common difference by subtracting x_4 from x_3 we get

36-16 =20

So, the common difference is 20

b) what is x_8? what is x_12

The formula used is: x_n=x_1+(n-1)d

We know common difference d= 20, we need to find x_1

Using x_3=16 we can find x_1

x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_3=x_1+(3-1)d\\15=x_1+2(20)\\15=x_1+40\\x_1=15-40\\x_1=-25

So, We have x_1 = -25

Now finding x_8

x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_8=x_1+(8-1)d\\x_8=-25+7(20)\\x_8=-25+140\\x_8=115

So, \mathbf{x_8=115}

Now finding x_{12}

x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_{12}=x_1+(12-1)d\\x_{12}=-25+11(20)\\x_{12}=-25+220\\x_{12}=195

So, \mathbf{x_{12}=195}

c) what is the common difference of the sequence a_m

Looking at the table, we get a_7=104, a_8=91 and a_9= 78

Deterring the common difference by subtracting a_7 from a_8 we get

91-104 =-13

So, the common difference is -13

d) what is a_12? what is a_15?

The formula used is: a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

We know common difference d= -13, we need to find a_1

Using a_7=104 we can find x_1

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_7=a_1+(7-1)d\\104=a_1+7(-13)\\104=a_1-91\\a_1=104+91\\a_1=195

So, We have a_1 = 195

Now finding a_{12} , put n=12

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{12}=a_1+(12-1)d\\a_{12}=195+11(-13)\\a_{12}=195-143\\a_{12}=52

So, \mathbf{a_{12}=52}

Now finding a_{15} , put n=15

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{15}=a_1+(15-1)d\\a_{15}=195+14(-13)\\a_{15}=195-182\\a_{15}=13

So, \mathbf{a_{15}=13}

Alex is 1.6 m tall and Noah is 1.5 times as tall as Alex. How much tall is Noah in centimeters?
Yanka [14]
D= difference in height

A= Alex's height (1.6m) N= Noah's height (1.5A)

Step 1:

D=N-A

substitute N= 1.5 A in for N

D= 1.5(1.6) - 1.6

D= 2.4 - 1.6

D= 0.8 m difference in height

Step 2:

Convert meters to centimeters 1 m = 100 centimeters

0.8 x 100-80cm

Noah is 80cm taller than Alex.

Hope this helps! :)

16. Construct 3 equations starting with x = 5.
strojnjashka [21]

<em><u>T</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>F</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>N</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u>:</u></em><em><u> </u></em> construct 3 equation starting with x=5?

<em><u>S</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>L</u></em><em><u>U</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>N</u></em><em><u>:</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

The equation is in the form of variable and constant equating.

Let the equation be x=5.

<em><u>T</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>C</u></em><em><u>R</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u>A</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>A</u></em><em><u>N</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u>Q</u></em><em><u>U</u></em><em><u>A</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>N</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>F</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>R</u></em><em><u>S</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>W</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>A</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>5</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>B</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>H</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>S</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u>e</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

x + 5=5+5

=x + 5=10

<em><u>S</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u>C</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>N</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>W</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>S</u></em><em><u>U</u></em><em><u>B</u></em><em><u>R</u></em><em><u>A</u></em><em><u>C</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>5</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>B</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>H</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>S</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

x — 5=5—5

=x—5=0

<em><u>T</u></em><em><u>H</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>R</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>W</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>M</u></em><em><u>U</u></em><em><u>L</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>P</u></em><em><u>L</u></em><em><u>Y</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>5</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>B</u></em><em><u>O</u></em><em><u>T</u></em><em><u>H</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>S</u></em><em><u>I</u></em><em><u>D</u></em><em><u>E</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>
