Answer:

3 , 11, 25, 45

Diff 8 14 20

Diff 6 6

The second differences are the same. The sequence is quadratic and will contain an n^2 term. The coefficient of n^2 is always half of the second difference. In this example, the second difference is 6. Half of 6 is 3 so the coefficient of n^2 is 3

therefore 3n^2

3 11 25 45

3n^2 3 12 27 48

Remainder 0 -1 -2 -3

Difference -1 -1 -1

linear sequence with nth term -n+1

so nth term of quadratic sequence in 3n^2-n+1

A gymnast dismounts the uneven parallel bars. Her height, h, depends on the time, t, that she is in the air h = −162 + 24t + 16.
dimulka [17.4K]
That is when h=0
so assuming yo meant
h(t)=-16t²+24t+16
solve for t such that h(t)=0
because when height=0, the gymnast hits the ground

so
0=-16t²+24t+16
using math (imma complete the square
0=-16(t²-3/2t)+16
0=-16(t²-3/2t+9/16-9/16)+16
0=-16((t-3/4)²-9/16)+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+9+16
0=-16(t-3/4)²+25
-25=-16(t-3/4)²
25/16=(t-3/4)²
sqrt both sides
+/-5/4=t-3/4
3/4+/-5/4=t
if we do plus (because minus would give us negative height)
8/4=t
2=t
it takes 2 seconds

Solve for x over the complex numbers.
Grace [21]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Given x^2+4x+13=0, find the complex roots.  The best approach here is to use the quadratic formula.  Note that a = 1, b = 4 and c = 13.  

Thus, the discriminant, b^2 - 4ac, is (4)^2 - 4(1)(13) = 16 - 52 = -36, and the square root of that is plus or minus i√36, or  plus or minus 6i.  


plus or minus i√

12. Make equation and plug in

13. Proportion

14. Finding a constant rate, and then manipulate




12. Where x is miles driven, and y is answer, and z is days
      19.95z+0.15x=y
      Plug in two values
      19.95 x 2 + 0.15 x 250 = y
      39.93+37.5 = y
      y=77.43

13. 5:2 as 175:x 
      5/2 = 175/x
      x = 70
      70+175=245

14. 260:5 = x:1
      260/5=x/1
      x = 52
      
      52:1 = y:9
      52/1 = y/9
      y = 468

I hope you understand the process.

People keep on giving me different answers for this one, I really do need help please...
guajiro [1.7K]

Hi there!

So if BC and DA are the same, then BA and CD are also the same...

The only one that’s left is BD.

Therefore, the shortest side is BD.
