Answer:
The third term is 11.
The first negative term is the fifth term.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the nth term of the sequence is given by the expression 20-n^2, to find the third term, we just need to use the value of n = 3 in the expression:
20 - (3)^2 = 20 - 9 = 11.
To find which term is the first to have a negative value, we can solve the inequation 20 - n^2 < 0:
20 - n^2 < 0
n^2 > 20
n > 4.47
The first term to have a negative value is the fifth term:
20 - 5^2 = 20 - 25 = -5

Answer:
The decimal place accuracy of a number is the number of digits to the right of the decimal point. The decimal point is a period written between the digits of a number. If there is no decimal point, it is understood to be after the last digit on the right and there is no place (zero place) accuracy.
The significant digits of a number are those digits that are most accurate. If a number has no place accuracy and there is no string of zeroes ending the number on the right, all the digits are significant. If a number has no place accuracy and there is a string of zeroes ending the number on the right, the significant digits are those digits to the left of the string of zeroes. If a number has a decimal point, the significant digits are the digits starting from the first non-zero number on the left to the last digit written at the right end. In either case the number of significant digits is just the count of these digits.
Decimal notation is the regular written format for a number. Scientific notation of a number just writes the significant digits followed by an appropriate power of ten.
The most common form of scientific notation inserts a decimal point after the first significant digit, follows the significant digits with times, "x", and then 10 to a power. If the original number is at least one, the power is the number of digits between the decimal point and the first number on the left. If the number is less than one, the power is the negative of the number of digits to the right of the decimal point up to and including the first non-zero number.
Calculators and computer software sometimes write scientific notation with the significant digits followed by the letter "E" and then the power of 10, without writing the base. A decimal point is usually inserted after the first significant digit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given both the distance from the tree and the height of the tree, the angle of elevation can be obtained using the tangent formula, tangent theta = opposite side / adjacent side. In this case, opposite side = the tree's height and the adjacent side is the distance of Cisco to the tree. Therefore, the angle of elevation equals 40.03 degrees.
