In
order to solve for a nth term in an arithmetic sequence, we use the formula
written as:<span>
an = a1 + (n-1)d
where an is the nth term, a1 is the first value
in the sequence, n is the term position and d is the common difference.
First, we need to calculate for d from the given
values above.
<span>a3 = 20.5 and a8 = 13
</span>
an = a1 + (n-1)d
20.5 = a1 + (3-1)d
</span>an = a1 + (n-1)d
13 = a1 + (8-1)d
<span>
a1 = 23.5
d = -1.5
The 11th term is calculated as follows:
a11 = a1 + (n-1)d
a11= 23.5 + (11-1)(-1.5)
a11 =
8.5</span>
Answer:
Choice C.
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of opposite parallel sides.
There is a theorem that states that opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
In this case, sides AB and CD are opposite sides.
Sides BC and AD are opposite sides.
Side CD is opposite side AB, so they are congruent.
Answer:
Choice C.
CD = AB; Opposite sides of parallelograms are congruent.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - represents 1 point shots
(54 - x) - represents 2 point shots
x + 2(54 - x) = 89
x + 108 - 2x = 89
-x + 108 = 89
x = 19 (1 point shots)
54-x = 35 ( 2 point shots)
Test:
19 + 35 = 54 (total shots)
19 x 1 = 19
35 x 2 = 70
70 + 19 = 89 points
Answer:
x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the larger of two numbers is four more than the smaller one, this means that there is a difference of 4 between the two numbers. In order to find the smaller of both numbers, you can obtain the smaller from the largest by subtracting 4.
