X = 59, y = 44
2x + 18 + x - 15 = 180
3x + 3 = 180
3x = 177
x = 59
x - 15 = y
59 - 15 = y
44 = y
The sum of the first 8 terms is 2.51 to the nearest hundredth
Step-by-step explanation:
In the geometric sequence there is a constant ratio between each two consecutive terms
The formula of the sum of n terms of a geometric sequence is:
, where
- a is the first term
- r is the constant ratio between the consecutive terms
∵ The sequence is 6 , -5 , 25/6 , .............
∵ -5 ÷ 6 = 
∵
÷ -5 = 
- There is a constant ratio between the consecutive terms
∴ The sequence is a geometric sequence
∵ The first term is 6
∴ a = 6
∵ The constant ratio is 
∴ r = 
∵ We need to find the sum of 8 terms
∴ n = 8
- Substitute the values of a, r and n in the rule above
∴
∴ 
- Round it to the nearest hundredth
∴ 
The sum of the first 8 terms is 2.51 to the nearest hundredth

Answer:
c 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Tangent AB is tangent to circle D at point A. The angle made by a tangent to a circle and a radius of the circle at the point of tangency is a right angle. That means that angle is a right angle, and triangle ABD is a right triangle.
We can use the Pythagoren theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + 20^2 = (x + 10)^2
x^2 + 400 = (x + 10)(x + 10)
x^2 + 400 = x^2 + 10x + 10x + 100
400 = 20x + 100
20x = 300
x = 15
Answer:
c. -70
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 50 from 120 you get 70, and since we are below sea level it is negative
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
Here (h, k) = (3, 1), hence
y = a(x - 3)² + 1
To find a substitute (- 2, - 4) into the equation
- 4 = a(- 2 - 3)² + 1
- 4 = 25a + 1 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
25a = - 5 ( divide both sides by 25 )
a = -
= - 
y = -
(x - 3)² + 1 ← in vertex form
