Answer: 17</h3>
=========================================================
Work Shown:
a1 = 3 = first term
d = 2 = common difference (since we add 2 to each term to get the next one)
Let's compute the nth term.
an = a1 + (n-1)*d
an = 3 + (n-1)*2
an = 3 + 2n-2
an = 2n+1
-----------------------
To check things so far, we can plug in something like n = 2
an = 2n+1
a2 = 2*2+1
a2 = 5
Showing that the 2nd term is 5, which matches with the sequence given to us
Let's check n = 3
an = 2n+1
a3 = 2*3+1
a3 = 7
That matches as well. I'll let you check the others.
-----------------------
Plug in n = 8 to find the 8th term
an = 2n+1
a8 = 2*8+1
a8 = 17
The eighth term is 17, which is the final answer.
-----------------------
You could extend out the given sequence by adding 2 each time until you reach the 8th term
3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17
Though this method is slow if you need to find say the 38th term
Answer:
p = 6; RPQ = 60 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Because RPS is 120 degrees and it is bisected by PQ (cut into 2 equal parts), we can determine that both sides are 60 degrees. Set the expression 5p+30 equal to 60 to find the value of p.
5p + 30 = 60
5p = 30
p = 6
So now you have determined that p = 6, and the measure of RPQ is 60 degrees.
Hope this helped!

Answer: second option.
Step-by-step explanation:
You must apply 
Then, given the right triangle and the angle D, the opposite side and the hypotenuse of the triangle are the following:
Therefore, when you substitute values, you have:
Reduce the fraction, then you obtain:
Most charts for the sizes of the canoe paddle give the sizes in units of inches. A yard is a unit of measure of length that is equal to 36 inches. Although some sizes of the canoes paddle torso are not greater than 36 inches, the yardstick can still be a reasonable measuring tool for bigger canoe paddles.
