Generate the nest three terms of each arithmetic sequence shown below.
o-na [289]

Answer:

A)2,6,10

B)2,-6,-18

C)-1,-3,-5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>A)a1=-2 and d=4</u>

We know that the arithmetic sequence formula is

a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d

Now

a_{2}=a_{1}+(2-1)d

a_{2}=a_{1}+(1)d

Substituting the given value we get

a_{2}= -2+(1)4

a_{2}= -2+4

a_{2}= 2

------------------------------------------

Similarly

a_{3}=a_{1}+(3-1)d

a_{3}=a_{1}+(2)d

Substituting the given value we get

a_{3}= -2+(2)4

a_{3}= -2+8

a_{3}= 6

-------------------------------------------------

a_{4}=a_{1}+(4-1)d

a_{4}=a_{1}+(3)d

Substituting the given value we get

a_{4}= -2+(3)4

a_{4}= -2+16

a_{4}= 10

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>B</u><u>  a_n=a_{(n-1)}-8  with a_1=10</u>

a_2=a_{(2-1)}-8

a_2=a_{1}-8

Substituting the given value

a_2= 10-8

a_2=2

---------------------------------------------------------------------

a_3=a_{(3-1)}-8

a_3=a_{2}-8

Substituting the  value

a_3=2-8

a_3= -6

---------------------------------------------------------------------

a_4=a_{(4-1)}-8

a_4=a_{3}-8

Substituting the  value

a_4= -6-8

a_4= -14

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>C) a_1=3, a_2=1</u>

Here the difference is -2

the arithmetic sequence formula is

a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d

Now

a_{3}=a_{1}+(3-1)d

a_{3}=a_{1}+(2)d

Substituting the value we get

a_{3}= 3+(2)-2

a_{3}= 3-4

a_{3}= -1

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a_{4}=a_{1}+(4-1)d

a_{4}=a_{1}+(3)d

Substituting the value we get

a_{4}= 3+(3)-2

a_{4}= 3-6

a_{4}= -3

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a_{5}=a_{1}+(5-1)d

a_{5}=a_{1}+(4)d

Substituting the value we get

a_{5}= 3+(4)-2

a_{5}= 3-8

a_{5}= -5

2. measure of an angle that is supplementary to
leonid [27]
Answer: 99°

explanation: first, we need to find angle T. we know that angle T and angle R are vertical angles, which means they’re the same. therefore, we solve the equation for x by doing angle T = angle R:
3x + 36 = 6x - 9
subtract 36 on both sides
3x = 6x - 45
subtract 6 on both sides
-3x = -45
divide both sides by -3
x= 15
then, plug in the value of x in 3x+36 to get angle T:
3(15) + 36= 81°
we found that angle T is 81°.
now, we need to find the supplementary angle of angle T. supplementary angles add up together to have a sum of 180°. to find the supplementary angle, subtract angle T from 180°:
180 - 81 = 99°
there we have the answer!

I need helping finding KMC.
NikAS [45]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

See discussion below. (I think the desired answer is 130)


Discussion:

The problem needs to be clarified to give you a answer. Her'es why:

Argument 1:

       When two lines intersect vertical angles are equal. So angle HMC =

       angle RMK. That's equivalent to


       5M + 15 =  7M +1   =>          subtract 5M from both sides

       5M - 5M + 15 = 7M -5M +1    => subtract 1 from both sides

       0 + 15 -1 = 2M + 1 -1  =>

      14  = 2M =>

      M = 7


      As a straight line has 180 degrees

      angle  RMK +  angle KMC = 180    =>   as angle RMK = 7M + 1

       (7M + 1 )      +  angle KMC  = 180   =>  as M =7 from above

       50               + angle KMC  = 180  =>

       angle KMC = 180 - 50 = 130.

       I think this is the answer they want BUT notice


Argument 2.

       Per the diagram, M can be interpreted as either the point of

       intersection of the 2 lines or as the angle at the intersection of the two

       lines.   If the point of intersection were called, say Q, and M reserved

       for angles, the problem would  be clearer.  BUt as I said above I think

       they are looking for the answer found in Argument 1 (130 degrees)



Thank you,

MrB

I just need an answer for number two please?
Nikolay [14]
< DAF and <EAD are supplementary ( both on same straight line FE)

but we are given that <EAD = <BAE ( as AE bisects <BAD) 
Therefore <BAE and <DAF are supplementary.
