Answer:

The 75th term of the arithmetic sequence -17, -13, -9.... is:

a_{75}=279

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

-17, -13, -9....

An arithmetic sequence has a constant difference 'd' and is defined by  

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

computing the differences of all the adjacent terms

-13-\left(-17\right)=4,\:\quad \:-9-\left(-13\right)=4

The difference between all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

d=4

The first element of the sequence is:

a_1=-17

now substitute d=4 and a_1=-17 in the nth term of the sequence

a_n=a_1+\left(n-1\right)d

a_n=4\left(n-1\right)-17

a_n=4n-21

Now, substitute n = 75 in the a_n=4n-21 sequence to determine the 75th sequence

a_n=4n-21

a_{75}=4\left(75\right)-21

a_{75}=300-21

a_{75}=279

Therefore,  the 75th term of the arithmetic sequence -17, -13, -9.... is:

a_{75}=279

Based on △GHI below, which of the following inequalities is true?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

C. \overline{GI} < \overline{GH} < \overline{HI}

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the longest side is opposite to the largest measure of angle. The medium side is opposite to the medium angle, while the shortest side is opposite to the smallest angle.

In ∆GHI,

✍️m<G = 95°, it is opposite to \overline{HI}

<G is the largest angle, therefore, \overline{HI} is the longest side.

✍️m<I = 180 - (95 + 38) = 47°.

<I is opposite to \overline{GH}

<I is the medium angle, therefore, \overline{GH} is the medium side.

✍️m<H = 38°, it is opposite to \overline{GI}

<h is the smallest angle, therefore, \overline{GI} is the shortest side.

✅This means:

\overline{GI} < \overline{GH} < \overline{HI}
