The person that factored the polynomial did one thing wrong -- they used minus signs when they should've used plus signs. We can figure this out because of the values of the quantities in the original trinomial. Since all of them are positive, we know that either there are two plus signs or that there is a minus and a plus sign with the value to the right of the plus sign being greater than the value to the right of the minus sign. But, that wouldn't work here, so the only thing wrong with this answer is that the plus signs should be minus signs.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
first term = a = 352
Common difference = d = second term - first term
= 345 - 352
= (-7)
nth term = a + (n-1)*d
43rd term = 352 + (43-1)*(-7)
= 352 + 42 *(-7)
= 352 - 294
= 58
Answer:
3) 1 5/6 mi
4) a. 4 cm, 6 ft
b. 6.4 cm, 9.6 ft
c. same as part a
Step-by-step explanation:
3) Each of the given distances appears twice in the sum of side measures that is the perimeter. Hence by walking the perimeter twice, Kyle walks each of the given distances 4 times. His total walk is ...
4×1/3 + 4×1/8 = 4/3 + 4/8
= 1 1/3 + 1/2 = 1 2/6 + 3/6
= 1 5/6 . . . . . miles
___
4) Since the figure is rectilinear (all angles are right angles, and all sides are straight lines), the sum of partial dimensions in one direction is equal to the whole dimension in that direction.
a. 8 cm = 4 cm + x
8 cm - 4 cm = x = 4 cm
The distance in the room is ...
(4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 6 ft
b. 10.3 cm = 3.9 cm + y
10.3 cm - 3.9 cm = y = 6.4 cm
The distance in the room is ...
(6.4 cm)×(1.5 ft/cm) = 9.6 ft
c. The answer to part b was obtained in the same way as the answer to part a. The unknown dimension is the difference of given dimensions. The actual length in the room is the model length multiplied by the inverse of the scale factor.
Answer:
answer is 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
proof is (x-1/2)²= x²-2*1/2*x+1/4= x²-x+1/4
You can use a tangent:
We have opposite = 17 and adjacent = x.
substitute:
cross multiply
multiply both sides by √3
divide both sides by 3
Use the Pythagorean theorem:

triangle.
The sides are in the ratio 
Therefore
