Answer: x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 2x - 15 = 0

x² + 3x - 5x - 15 = 0

x(x + 3) - 5(x + 3) = 0

Therefore, x + 3 = 0

x = 0 - 3 = -3

Also, x - 5 = 0

x = 0 + 5 = 5

Therefore, the solutions to x² - 2x - 15 = 0 is x = -3 and x = 5. Therefore, the correct option is D.

How many terms are in the arithmetic sequence 1313, 1616, 1919, ……, 7070, 7373?
Nataliya [291]
To find the number of terms in the arithmetic sequence, we need to use the formula 
a_{n}= a_{1}+(n-1)d    
where a_{n} is the nth number, a_{1} is the first number, n is the number of terms and d is the difference of the two consecutive numbers.
7373 = 1313 + (n - 1)(303)
7373 = 1313 + 303n - 303
7373 = 1010 + 303n
7373 - 1010 = 303n
6363 = 303n
6363 ÷ 303 = n
n = 21

Therefore, there are 21 terms in the arithmetic sequence given.
