-7 because 56 divided by 8 is 7 but since we are using division with negatives and positives a positive + a negative = a negative
so your answer is -7
hope this helps hope i m brainliest i need 3 more
I believe y=-x+8 cause you would take the 2 then subtract it to the 16 for it to turn into 2y=-2x+16 then you take the 2y and divide
Answer:
12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the base
h represents the height
area of the parallelogram = base * height = 216 square inches
From the question'
b = 18 + 3h
Slot in the value of b
216 = (18 + 3h) * h
expand
216 = 18h + 3h^2
subtract 216 from both sides
0 = 18h + 3h^2 - 216
rearrange
3h^2 + 18h - 216 = 0
divide through by 3
h^2 + 6h - 72 = 0
Now, lets solve!
h^2 + 6h - 12h - 72 = 0
h( h + 6 ) - 12(h + 6) = 0
(h - 12) (h + 6) = 0
h - 12 = 0
h = 12
and
h + 6 = 0
h = - 6
Taking the positive value of h
Hence, the height is 12 inches
Lets check
when h = 12 inches
Area of the parallelogram = 18* 12 = 216 square inches .... correct
when h = -6inches
A = 18 * -6 ≠ 216 square inches
So height is 12 inches
The first five terms of the sequence are; 4,600, 4,550, 4,500, 4,450, 4,400 and the total predicted number of sold cars for the first year is 51,900 cars
<h3>Arithmetic sequence</h3>
- First month, a = 4,600 cars
- Common difference, d = -50 cars
First five terms;
a = 4,600
a + d = 4600 + (-50)
= 4600 - 50
= 4,550
a + 2d
= 4600 + 2(-50)
= 4600 - 100
= 4,500
a + 3d
= 4,600 + 3(-50)
= 4,600 - 150
= 4,450
a + 4d
= 4600 + 4(-50)
= 4,600 - 200
= 4,400
cars predicted for the twelfth month.
a + 11d
= 4600 + 11(-50)
= 4600 + 550
= 4,050
Total predicted number of sold cars for the first year:
Sn = n/2{2a + (n - 1)d }
= 12/2{2×4600 + (12-1)-50}
= 6{9200 + 11(-50)}
= 6(9,200 - 550)
= 6(8,650)
= 51,900 cars
