 x = longer section
y = shorter section

x + y = 109
x = 2y + 10

so we sub in eq 2 into eq 1
2y + 10 + y = 109
3y + 10 = 109
3y = 109 - 10
3y = 99
y = 99/3
y = 33 <=== shorter section is 33 cm

x = 2y + 10
x = 2(33) + 10
x = 66 + 10
x = 76 <=== longer section is 76 cm

What is the nth term rule of the quadratic sequence below?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

3n² + 5n - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given sequence</u>:

6, 20, 40, 66, 98, 136, ...

Calculate the <u>first differences</u> between the terms:

6 \underset{+14}{\longrightarrow} 20 \underset{+20}{\longrightarrow} 40 \underset{+26}{\longrightarrow} 66 \underset{+32}{\longrightarrow} 98 \underset{+38}{\longrightarrow} 136

As the first differences are not the same, calculate the <u>second differences:</u>

14 \underset{+6}{\longrightarrow} 20 \underset{+6}{\longrightarrow} 26 \underset{+6}{\longrightarrow} 32 \underset{+6}{\longrightarrow} 38

As the <u>second differences are the same</u>, the sequence is quadratic and will contain an n² term.

The <u>coefficient</u> of the n² term is <u>half of the second difference</u>.

Therefore, the n² term is:  3n²

Compare 3n² with the given sequence:

\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-5} n & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4\\\cline{1-5} 3n^2 & 3 & 12 & 27 & 48 \\\cline{1-5} \sf operation & +3&+8 & +13 & +18 \\\cline{1-5} \sf sequence & 6 & 20 & 40 & 66\\\cline{1-5}\end{array}

The second operations are different, therefore calculate the differences <em>between</em> the second operations:

3 \underset{+5}{\longrightarrow} 8 \underset{+5}{\longrightarrow} 13\underset{+5}{\longrightarrow} 18

As the differences are the same, we need to add 5n as the second operation:

\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-5} n & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4\\\cline{1-5} 3n^2  +5n & 8&22 & 42 & 68\\\cline{1-5}\sf operation & -2 &-2  &-2  & -2  \\\cline{1-5} \sf sequence & 6 & 20 & 40 & 66\\\cline{1-5}\end{array}

Finally, we can clearly see that the operation to get from 3n² + 5n to the given sequence is to subtract 2.

Therefore, the nth term of the quadratic sequence is:

3n² + 5n - 2

How many integers between 10000 and 99999, inclusive, are divisible by 3 or<br> 5 or 7?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: Hence, there are approximately 48884 integers are divisible by 3 or 5 or 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Integers between 10000 and 99999 = 99999-10000+1=90000

n( divisible by 3) = \dfrac{90000}{3}=30000

n( divisible by 5) = \dfrac{90000}{5}=18000

n( divisible by 7) = \dfrac{90000}{7}=12857.14

n( divisible by 3 and 5) = n(3∩5)=\dfrac{90000}{15}=6000

n( divisible by 5 and 7) = n(5∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{35}=2571.42

n( divisible by 3 and 7) = n(3∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{21}=4285.71

n( divisible by 3,5 and 7) = n(3∩5∩7) = \dfrac{90000}{105}=857.14

As we know the formula,

n(3∪5∪7)=n(3)+n(5)+n(7)-n(3∩5)-n(5∩7)-n(3∩7)+n(3∩5∩7)

=30000+18000+12857.14-6000-2571.42-4258.71+857.14\\\\=48884.15

Hence, there are approximately 48884 integers are divisible by 3 or 5 or 7.

QUESTION in the diagram below the following are rectangles. ACEG ;BCDJ ; JDEF and HJFG is a square AB =AH = x ;BC=5 ; HG=3 Area
White raven [17]

The area of the rectangle ACEG is the amount of space on it, and the area of square HJFG is 9 square units

<h3>How to determine the area of the figures?</h3>

The area of a rectangle is:

Area = Length * Width

The area of a square is:

Area = Length * Length

From the question, the given parameters are:

AB =AH = x ;

BC=5;

HG=3

This means that the area of square HJFG is:

Area = HG * HG

Area = 3 * 3

Area = 9

<em>Note that the other areas cannot be calculated because the question is incomplete</em>
