Pepsi [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: -2, 1, 6,...97

Step-by-step explanation:

1st term: 1^2 - 3 = -2

1^2 = 1

1-3=-2

2nd term: 2^2-3 = 1

2^2 = 4

4-3=1

3rd term: 3^2-3 = 6

3^2 = 9

9 -3 = 6

10th term: 10^2-3 = 97

10^2 = 100

100-3=97

Use completing the square to solve (x + 7)(x – 9) = 25 for x.
Finger [1]
We need to solve for x by completing the square of the given mathematical expression (x+7)(x-9) = 25.
First, we need to perform multiplication of (x+7) and (x-9) such as the expression become:
(x+7) (x-9) = 25
x² -9x +7x -63 = 25
x² - 2x = 25 + 63
Then perform addition of constant values 25 and 63
x² - 2x =88
Add +1 in both sides to complete the expression such as:
x² - 2x +1 = 88 +1
(x-1)(x-1) = 89
(x-1)² = 89
We see that (x-1) is a perfect square, we can now solve for the value of x such as:
(x-1) = +-√89
x1 = +√89  + 1
x1 = 10.4
x2 = -√89 +1
x2 = -8.4

The answers are 10.4 and -8.4.

Solve for h -4(-6h - 7) = 9h + 10h - 7
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

h=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(-6h - 7) = 9h + 10h - 7

24h+28=19h-7

Both side -28

24h+28-28=19h-7-29

24h=19h-35

Both side -19h

24h-19h=19h-19h-35

5h=-35

h=-7

Kaj is flying a kite, holding her hands a distance of 3.5 feet above the ground and letting all the kite’s string play out. She
Savatey [412]

Using trigonometric ratio, the height of the ground above the ground to the nearest hundredth is 44.85 ft

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>What is a right angle triangle?</h3>

Right angle triangle has one of its angles as 90 degrees. The sides and angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.

Therefore, the length of the string is the hypotenuse side of the triangle formed . The opposite side of the triangle is the height of the kite form the ground.

Therefore, the height of the kite form the ground can be found as follows;

sin 33° = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 33° = h / 75

cross multiply

h = 75 × sin 33

h = 40.8479276261

h = 40.84

The height of kite from ground = 40.847 + 3.5  = 44.3479276261 = 44.85 ft
