<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The first term is 10 and the common difference is \frac{3}{2}

<u>For 2:</u> The value of n is 27

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The n-th term of the progression is given as:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

where,

a_1 is the first term, n is the number of terms and d is the common difference

The sum of n-th terms of the progression is given as:

S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a_1+(n-1)d]

where,

S_n is the sum of nth terms

  • <u>For (1):</u>

The 11th term of the progression:

25=a_1+10d               .......(1)

Sum of first 4 numbers:

49=\frac{4}{2}[2a_1+3d              ......(2)

Forming equations:

98=8a_1+12d

25=a_1+10d                  ( × 8)

The equations become:

98=8a_1+12d

200=8a_1+80d

Solving above equations, we get:

102=68d\\\\d=\frac{102}{68}=\frac{3}{2}

Putting value in equation (1):

25=a_1+10\frac{3}{2}\\\\a_1=[25-15]=10

Hence, the first term is 10 and the common difference is \frac{3}{2}

  • <u>For 2:</u>

The nth term is given as:

49=10+(n-1)\frac{3}{2}

Solving the above equation:

39=(n-1)\frac{3}{2}\\\\n-1=26\\\\n=27

Hence, the value of n is 27

Imagine the graph for the relation 4x-5y+20 = 0.<br> What would be its slope?
muminat
4x - 5y + 20 = 0
<u>             - 20  - 20</u>
        4x - 5y = -20
 4x - 4x - 5y = -20 - 4x
              -5y = -20 - 4x
              <u>-5y</u> = <u>-4x - 20</u>
               -5         -5
                 y = ⁴/₅x + 4
The slope would be ⁴/₅.

Help me so confused?
Eva8 [605]

BD is 31 degrees because it is the same.

ADB is 90-31 because it is a right angle ( 59 degrees)

DEC is 180 - (31*2) because the 180 is of the trangle and the 31 is the same on the other side so times 2 then removed from 180

Please need help fast. Look at the picture.<br><br> Please explain.
Zigmanuir [339]
The answer is 17

This is because 1 + 2 must equal 180 as they are in a straight line.
So 4x + 2 + 110 = 180
Take away 110 from both sides
4x + 2 = 70
Take away 2 from both sides to get 4x = 68. Finally, divide both sides by 4 to get x = 17
