Let's convert the problem into Arithmetic progression:
It would be: 5, 9, 13, ....
Here, a = 5, d = 9 - 5 = 4
We know, S(n) = n/2 [ 2a + (n-1)d ]
Substitute the known values,
434 = n/2 [ 2(5) + (n - 1)4 ]
434 * 2 = n [ 10 + 4n - 4 ]
868 = 10n + 4n² - 4n
= 4n² + 6n - 868 = 0
d = b² - 4ac
d = 6² - 4(4)(-868)
d = 36+13888
d = 13924
Now, roots = -b +- √d / 2a
= (-6 + √13924) / 2(4) OR (-6 - √13924) / 2(4)
= (-6 + 118) / 8 OR (-6 - 118) / 8
= 112/8 OR -124/8
= 14 OR -15.5
As number of sticks can't be in negative/decimal or fraction form, -15.5 would be fully rejected.
In short, Your Answer would be 14 [ Remaining root ]
Hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y is proportional to x when it satisfies the equation ...
y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality. The equation can be solved for k by dividing by x:
k = y/x
The value of k for the given relation is ...
k = (320 mL)/(20 s)
k = 16 mL/s . . . the constant of proportionality
Then the equation is ...
y = 16x
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle with angles of 30-60-90 will always have sides that measure in the following proportions:
The side opposite the 30* angle = a
The side opposite the 60* angle = 
The side opposite the 90* angle = 2a
(I used "a" here because your question uses "x" and I don't want to confuse things, but usually people use "x" rather than "a")
They gave us that the hypotenuse (the side opposite the 90* angle) is 10, from there we can figure out the other sides:
Since the side opposite 90* is 2a, and 2a = 10, divide 10 by 2 and you get a = 5.
Once we know what "a" is, we can fill in the rest:
30* = 5
60* = 
90* = 10
90, 96, 120, 124, 130, 135, 140, 145, 148, 290, 290. How would the data graphed on a horizontal number line appear to be clustered or skewed?

Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Required
Make the variable in bracket the subject
From the given expression, none of the variables (m and x) are in brackets.
So, I will solve for m and then solve for x
Solving for m:

Subtract 2x from both sides

Divide both sides by x

Solving for x:

Factorize

Divide both sides by m + 2
