Answer:

  • -35/3, -140/3, - 560/3, -2240/3
  • 7, -28, 112, - 448  

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The terms are:</u>

  • a₁, a₂, a₃, a₄

<u>Given:</u>

  • a₁ = a₂ + 35
  • a₃ = a₄ + 560

<u>Use the nth term formula:</u>

  • a₂ = a₁r
  • a₃ = a₁r²
  • a₄ = a₁r³

<u>Substitute:</u>

  • a₁ = a₁r + 35 ⇒ a₁(1 - r) = 35
  • a₁r² = a₁r³ + 560  ⇒ a₁(1 - r)r² = 560

<u>Divide the second equation by the first:</u>

  • r² = 560/35
  • r² = 16
  • r = √16
  • r = ± 4

<u>Use the first equation to find the first term:</u>

  • a₁( 1 ± 4) = 35
  • 1. a₁ = 35/-3 = -35/3
  • 2. a₁ = 35/5 = 7

<u>We have two sequences:</u>

r = 4

  • -35/3, -140/3, - 560/3, -2240/3

r = -4

  • 7, -28, 112, - 448

13. Find the length of X (in the picture)​
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

the sides are proportional due the angles being equal

since the hypotonuse is 5 on the bigger one and 2.5 on the small one we can infer there is a ×2 difference

so 4÷2=x

x=2

A rectangle has an area of 45x2 − 42x − 48 and a width of 5x − 8. what is the length of the rectangle? to find the length of the
kondaur [170]

If the area and width of the rectangle are 45x² − 42x − 48 and (5x − 8) then the length of the rectangle will be (3x + 2).

<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>

It is a polygon that has four sides. The sum of the internal angle is 360 degrees. In a rectangle, opposite sides are parallel and equal and each angle is 90 degrees. And its diagonals are also equal and intersect at the mid-point.

A rectangle has an area of 45x² − 42x − 48 and a width of 5x − 8.

Then the length of the rectangle will be

area = length × width

Then we have

Area = 45x² − 42x − 48

Then the factor of the polynomial will be

Area = (5x − 8)(3x + 2)

Then the length of the rectangle will be (3x + 2).

More about the rectangle link is given below.
