Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf 3.5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = $\sf 6 \frac{1}{2} \ units = 6.5 \ units$

Here X is -3

So,

Point Y = -3 + 6.5 = 3.5

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Hope this helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know x is -3

we also know that the number has to be 6.5 units away from -3

so, -3 plus 6.5 is 3.5

-3 minus 6.5 is -9.5

Either 3.5 or -9.5 would work but 3.5 is the only listed option, so the answer is B

Each of the walls in Harvey’s shed are square and have an area of 84 square feet. What is the approximate height, to the nearest

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have a square wall with a value of 84 square feet for the area and we are told to find the approximate height of the walls

Mathematically, the area of a square is L^2

The height of the walls is just as one of its side

Thus;

L^2 = 84

L = √(84)

L = 9.165

which to the nearest foot is 9 ft

Consider the sequence: 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, ...The recursive formula for this sequence is:an = an-1 + 5In a COMPLETE sentence, expl

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

$a_8=38$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Recursive sequence </u>

In a recursive sequence formula, each term $a_n$ is computed as a function of one or more previous terms. In the formula

$a_n=a_{n-1}+5$

n is the number of the term we want to calculate. If n=8, then the formula becomes

$a_8=a_{7}+5$

We can see $a_{n-1}$ is the previous term. It means we need $a_7$ to be able to compute $a_8$ . But we also need $a_6$ to compute $a_7$ and so on until some known data is reached. The question provides five terms, $a_5=23.$

$a_6=a_5+5=28$

$a_7=a_6+5=33$

$a_8=a_7+5=38$

$a_8=38$

Lerok [7]

Answer:

128 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the tower above eye-height is related to the angle by ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

tan(72°) = (tower height above eye height)/(40 ft)

tower height above eye height = (40 ft)×tan(72°) = 123 ft

Since eye height is 5 ft, the total height of the tower from the ground is ...

tower height = eye height + height above eye height

tower height = 5 ft + 123 ft

tower height = 128 ft
