Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

-75-(-55) = (-55)-(-35) = (-35)-(-15)=-20

the ratio diff is : d=-20

the nth term is :An=A1+(n-1)d      A1 =-15

An=-15+(n-1)(-20) = 15-20n+20

An = -20n+5

26th term when : n=26       A26 = -20(26)+5 = -515

A26= -515

Answer:

-515

Step-by-step explanation:

In this example the first value is −15 and every value afterwards is 20 less.

After substituting these values to above formula, we obtain:

All we have to do is add 25 twenties or 25 x 20 = 500 and -15 - 500 = -515

Find the percent decreased original price: $40 sale price: $30
stich3 [128]

Answer:

25 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent decrease = (original - new)/original * 100 percent

                              = (40-30)/40 * 100 percent

                              = 10/40 * 100 percent

                              = .25 * 100 percent

                               =25 %

If a polynomial has one root in the form a+√b , it has a second root in the form of a_√b
gulaghasi [49]
When roots of polynomials occur in radical form, they occur as two conjugates.
That is,
The conjugate of (a + √b) is (a - √b) and vice versa.
To show that the given conjugates come from a polynomial, we should create the polynomial from the given factors.

The first factor is x - (a + √b).
The second factor is x - (a - √b).

The polynomial is
f(x) = [x - (a + √b)]*[x - (a - √b)]
      = x² - x(a - √b) - x(a + √b) + (a + √b)(a - √b)
      = x² - 2ax + x√b - x√b + a² - b
      = x² - 2ax + a² - b

This is a quadratic polynomial, as expected.

If you solve the quadratic equation x² - 2ax + a² - b = 0 with the quadratic formula, it should yield the pair of conjugate radical roots.
x = (1/2) [ 2a +/- √(4a² - 4(a² - b)]
   = a +/- (1/2)*√(4b)
   = a +/- √b
x = a + √b, or x = a - √b, as expected.
