which sequences are arithmetic? check all that apply. –8.6, –5.0, –1.4, 2.2, 5.8, … 2, –2.2, 2.42, –2.662, 2.9282, … 5, 1, –3, –

In an arithmetic sequence, the next term is found by adding a constant term to each number to arrive at the next number. The common difference can be found by subtracting the first term from the second term.
-8.6, -5.0, -1.4, 2.2, 5.8....the common difference here is 3.6
-8.6 + 3.6 = -5.0
-5.0 + 3.6 = -1.4
1.4 + 3.6 = 2.2
2.2 + 3.6 = 5.8
so this IS an arithmetic sequence.
2,-2.2, 2.42, -2.662, 2.9282...there is no common difference..so this is not an arithmetic sequence
5,1,-3,-7,-11....common difference is -4
5 + (-4) = 1
1 + (-4) = -3
-3 + (-4) = -7
-7 + (-4) = -11
this IS an arithmetic sequence
-3,3,9,15,21...common difference is 6
-3 + 6 = 3
3 + 6 = 9
9 + 6 = 15
15 + 6 = 21
this IS an arithmetic sequence
-6.2, -3.1, -1.55, -0.775, -0.3875...this is not an arithmetic sequence
Answer: Choice C)
--------------------------------------
mean = xbar = (2400+1750+1900+2500+2250+2100)/6
mean = 2150
Subtract the data values from the mean to get
2400-2150 = 250
1750-2150 = -400
1900-2150 = -250
2500-2150 = 350
2250-2150 = 100
2100-2150 = -50
The differences are: 250, -400, -250, 350, 100, -50
Then you square those values and add up the squares
(250)^2 + (-400)^2 + (-250)^2 + (350)^2 + (100)^2 + (-50)^2 = 420,000
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
D is the best Answer.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that there is a little triangle formed by the lines on the right side of the diagram.
Let's find the angle measures of the triangle. One of them has a supplementary angle of 96 degrees, which means that the actual interior angle is 180 - 96 = 84 degrees.
Another angle has a supplementary angle of 137, which means that the actual interior angle of the triangle is 180 - 137 = 43 degrees.
Finally, we have the expression 2x - 23, which is an exterior angle. By definition, this exterior angle is equal to the sum of the interior angles of the triangle that do not include its supplementary angle. In other words:
2x - 23 = 84 + 43
Now we just solve for x:
2x - 23 = 84 + 43 = 127
2x = 127 + 23 = 150
x = 150/2 = 75 degrees
The answer is 75 degrees, or C.
