In an arithmetic sequence d represent the common difference.
The formula to find the general term of an arithmetic sequence is,

Where
= nth term and
= First term.
Given,
. Therefore,


Next step is to subtract the above equations so that we can eliminate a1 and get the value of d. Hence,
4d - 8d = 24 - 40
-4d = - 16
Divide each sides by - 16.
d = 4
So, d = 4.
Hope this helps yoi!.

Distance between the top and bottom of the bridge is 76 feet
Solution:
The image of the question is attached below.
Ratio of the triangles is 1 : 1.
AC = 2x + 10 and EC = 4x − 18.
Since the two triangles ACB and DCE are in the ratio 1 : 1, so their corresponding sides are also in the ratio 1 : 1.
Therefore sides AC and EC are corresponding to each other.
AC : EC = 1 : 1



Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

Subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.

Divide by -2 on both sides, we get
⇒ x = 14
Distance between the top and bottom of the bridge is EA.
EA = AC + EC
= 2x + 10 + 4x - 18
= 6x - 8
= 6(14) - 8
= 84 - 8
EA = 76 feet
Distance between the top and bottom of the bridge is 76 feet.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=x³-2x²
f(i)=(i)³-2(i)²=i²×i-2(-1)
=-1×i+2
=2-i
Number of dog food packages bought by Byron is 300
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given number of bird food packages = b. Find the number of packages for the other animal foods.
Number of hamster food packages = b.
Number of dog food packages = 4b
Number of cat food packages = 1/2 of 4b = 2b
Total food packages = 600
⇒ b + b + 4b + 2b = 600
⇒ 8b = 600
⇒ b = 600/8 = 75
- Step 2: Calculate the amount of dog food
∴ 4b = 4 × 75 = 300
