NEED HELP ASAP ITS DUE IN 1 HOUR!!! PLEASEEE HELP!!! IF YOU ANSWER RIGHT I'LL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST!!
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

f(n) = -11 + 22(n - 1)

<em>f(1) is your initial value.</em>

f(1) = -11 + 22(1 - 1)

f(1) = -11

------------------------------------------------------------

f(2) = -11 + 22(2 - 1) = 11

f(3) = -11 + 22(3 - 1) = 33

f(4) = -11 + 22(4 - 1) = 55

<em>f(n - 1) is just a notation for the previous term</em>

<em>Using the equation f(n) = f(n - 1) + _______ :</em>

f(2) = f(1) + ??? = 11

f(3) = f(2) + ???  = 33

f(4) = f(3) + ???  = 55

f(2) = -11 + ??? = 11

f(3) = 11 + ???  = 33

f(4) = 33 + ???  = 55

f(2) = -11 + 22 = 11

f(3) = 11 + 22  = 33

f(4) = 33 + 22  = 55

∴ f(n) = f(n - 1) + 22

Given: PQ ⊥ QR , PR=20, SR=11, QS=5 Find: The value of PS.
Neporo4naja [7]

1. PQR and is a right triangle, so you can calculate the measure of PQ by applying the Pythagorean Theorem. PR is the hypotenuse and QR and PQ are the legs:

PR^{2}=PQ^{2}+QR^{2}\\ PQ=\sqrt{PR^{2}-QR^{2}}\\ PQ=\sqrt{20^{2}-16^{2}} \\ PQ=12

2. PQS and is a right triangle too, so you can calculate the measure of PS by applying the Pythagorean Theorem as above. PS is the hypotenuse and PQ and QS are the legs:

PS=\sqrt{PQ^{2}+QS^{2}}=13

Therefore, the answer is: The value of PS is 13.
