Answer:

a(n)=1+(n-1)(-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice there's a common difference of d=-3.

If we use the formula a(n)=a1+(n-1)d to find the nth term given the first term and the common difference, we will see that the function that describes the arithmetic sequence as a(n)=1+(n-1)(-3)

Darren has a wooden board that is Three-fifths of a meter long. He cuts the board into 3 equal parts. How long is each section o

Alik [6]

Answer:

Each section of the board is 1/3 or 0.334(0.333333333333) of a meter

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 divided by 3 is the equation we have to do.

3/5 divided by 3 is also equal to 3/5 times the reciprocal of 3 or 1/3

3/5 * 1/3

3*1 = 3

5*3 = 15

3/15 which can simplify to 1/3. (divide numerator and denominator by 3.)

Each section of the board is 1/3 or 0.334(0.333333333333) of a meter

Solve 5r2 – 12 = 68. {±4} {±5} {±3} {±6}

sashaice [31]

Hey there!

Assuming you meant

$5r^2 - 12 = 68$

If so, follow these steps so it can be a little bit easier to solve

Firstly, we have to $add$ by $12$ on each of your sides

$5r^2 -12 +12 \\ \\ 68 + 12$

$5r^2 = 5r^2 \\ \\ 68 + 12 = 80$

We get: $5r^2 =80$

Now, we have $divide$ by $5$ on each of your sides

$\frac{5r^2}{5} = \frac{80}{5}$

$\frac{80}{5} = 16$

We get: $r^2 = 16$

$r =$ ± $\sqrt{16}$

Therefore , your answer is: $r =$ ± $4$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
