A n =−1+3(n−1) an=−1+3(n−1) what is the 55 term in the sequence

Sindrei [870]

ANSWER

$a_{55}=161$

EXPLANATION

The general term for the sequence is

$a_n=-1+3(n-1)$

To find the 55th term, we have to substitute
$n = 55$
in to the general term and simplify.

This implies that,

$a_{55}=-1+3(55-1)$

$a_{55}=-1+3(54)$

$a_{55}=-1+162$

$a_{55}=161$

Therefore the 55th term is 161.

A circle has the equation 2x²+12x+2y²−16y−150=0.

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer: B. The coordinates of the center are (-3,4), and the length of the radius is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in the center-radius form is:

$(x-h)^{2} +(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}$ (1)

Where $(h,k)$ are the coordinates of the center and $r$ is the radius.

Now, we are given the equation of this circle as follows:

$2x^{2}+12x+2y^{2}-16y-150=0$ (2)

And we have to write it in the format of equation (1). So, let's begin by applying common factor 2 in the left side of the equation:

$2(x^{2}+6x+y^{2}-8y-75)=0$ (3)

Rearranging the equation:

$x^{2}+6x+y^{2}-8y=75$ (4)

$(x^{2}+6x)+(y^{2}-8y)=75$ (5)

Now we have to complete the square in both parenthesis, in order to have a perfect square trinomial in the form of $(a\pm b)^{2}=a^{2}\pm+2ab+b^{2}$ :

<u>For the first parenthesis:</u>

$x^{2}+6x+b^{2}$

We can rewrite this as:

$x^{2}+2(3)x+b^{2}$

Hence in this case $b=3$ and $b^{2}=9$ :

$x^{2}+2(3)x+3^{2}=x^{2}+6x+9=(x+3)^{2}$

<u>For the second parenthesis:</u>

$y^{2}-8y+b^{2}$

We can rewrite this as:

$y^{2}-2(4)y+b^{2}$

Hence in this case $b=-3$ and $b^{2}=9$ :

$y^{2}-2(4)y+4^{2}=y^{2}-8y+16=(y-4)^{2}$

Then, equation (5) is rewritten as follows:

$(x^{2}+6x+9)+(y^{2}-8y+16)=75+9+16$ (6)

<u>Note we are adding 9 and 16 in both sides of the equation in order to keep the equality.</u>

Rearranging:

$(x-3)^{2}+(y-4)^{2}=100$ (7)

At this point we have the circle equation in the center radius form $(x-h)^{2} +(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}$

Hence:

$h=-3$

$k=4$

$r=\sqrt{100}=10$

Solve |3x - 5] = 2 - 1/2x

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply both sides by 2:

6x-10=4-x

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign:

6x-10+x=4

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign:

6x+x=4+10

Collect like terms:

7x=14

Divide both sides of the equation by 7:

x=2
