Answer:
D. 119
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the common difference, we take the second term and subtract the first term
2-(-7) = 9
We check by taking the third term and subtracting the second
11-2 = 9
The common difference is 9
The formula for an arithmetic sequence is
an = a1 +d(n-1)
where a1 is the first term, d is the common difference and n is the number of the term in the sequence
a1=-7, d=9 and we are looking for the 15th term so n=15
a15 = -7 +9(15-1)
a15 = -7+9(14)
=-7 +126
= 119
pretty much about the same as before.
a = weight of a large box
b = weight of a small box.
we know their combined weight is 65 lbs, thus a + b = 65.
we also know that the truck has 60 large ones, and 55 small ones, thus 60*a is the total weight for the large ones and 55*b is the total weight for the small ones, and we know that is a total of 3775, 60a + 55b = 3775.

Answer:
The correct option is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the expresses this statement: A quantity x is equal to the sum of the squares of a and b.
The square of a can be written as a² and the square of b can be written as b².
The sum of squares of a and b can be written as

Since the quantity x is equal to the sum of the squares of a and b, therefore

Therefore option D is correct.
