Allen is on the football team this year but he has poor time management skills. His mother told him that he is off the team if h

e fails anything. On his first quiz he got a 90, the second he earned an 86, then he earned an 82 on the next two quizzes. Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric? Recursion equation? Function formula? On what quiz will he no longer to play football? How many total points did Allen earn on all the quizzes he has taken up to his removal of the team?

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the sequence is 90, 86,82,.......

The common difference is  86 - 90 = -4

                                             82 - 86 = -4

Hence the sequence is arithmetic

The function is;

t(n) = 90 + (n - 1)(-4) = 90 + 4 - 4n

t(n) = 94 - 4n

Since it is AP, we have the sequence as;

90, 86, 82, 78, 74, 70, 66, 62......

He will no longer play football after the eighth quiz.

The total points earned is the sum of the first eight terms of the AP

Sn =n/2[2a + (n - 1) d]

Sn = 8/2[2(90) + (8 - 1) (-4)]

Sn = 608 points

A segment XD is drawn in rectangle QUAD as shown
grin007 [14]

Answer:

∠XDQ : 41°

∠UXD: 139 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Allow me to rewrite your answer for a better understanding and please have a look at the attached photo.

<em>A segment XD is drawn in rectangle QUAD as shown  below. </em>

<em>What are the measures of ∠XDQ and ∠UXD ? </em>

My answer:

As we can see in the photo, ∠ADX = 49° and ∠ADU =90°

=>  ∠XDQ = ∠ADU - ∠ADX

= 90°  - 49°  = 41°

In the triangle ADX, we can find out the angle of ∠DXA

= 180° - ∠DAX - ∠ADX

= 180° - 90° - 49°

= 41°

=> <em>∠UXD = </em>180° - ∠DXA  (Because UA is a straight line)

=180° - 41°  

= 139 °

morpeh [17]
40 miles an hour
60 [minutes] * 60 [seconds]= 3600
22.5[seconds for 1/4 of a mile]* 4[ one mile]= 90 [seconds per mile]
3600/90=40 [miles an hour]
