3 0

Answer:

a. 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Sₙ = n/2 * (2 * a₁ + (n-1) * d)

Sₙ = 500     a₁ = -4    d = 2

500 = n/2 * (-8 + (n-1) * 2) = n/2 * (-8 + 2n - 2) = n/2 * (2n - 10) = n² -5n

n² - 5n -500 = 0

(n - 25) (n + 20) = 0

n > 0

n = 25

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND SOMEONE PLEASE HELP
sammy [17]

Answer:

a = 12cm

Third option

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem because this is a right triangle and you are looking for a missing side.

The formula is:

a² + b² = c², where "a" and "b" are sides, but "c" is the hypotenuse (longest side).

We know the hypotenuse and one other side.

Substitute side "b" and "c".

a² + 5² = 13²

a² + 25 = 169   Isolate "a"

a² = 169 - 25    Subtract 25 from both sides

a² = 144         Find the square root of both sides

a = √144

a = 12

The mssing side, "a", is 12 cm long.

olasank [31]

Answer:

Conjecture :  2xy / ( x + y ) ≤  √xy

Step-by-step explanation:

Harmonic mean of  x and y = 2xy/( x + y )

<u>Formulate a conjecture about their relative sizes </u>

we will achieve this by computing harmonic and geometric means

Geometric mean = √xy

harmonic mean = 2xy/( x + y )

Conjecture :  2xy / ( x + y ) ≤  √xy

attached below is the proof
