Answer:
c= -20
x= 38
Explanation:
Solve for x and c by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer is 15.
Step-by-step explanation:
10% of 150 is 15. (you can take away the zero)
For the triangle, x is 12 units long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
The hypotenuse is the side which is the longest in the triangle and is always opposite the right angle.
In the given triangle, the hypotenuse is 13 units long. The other two sides measure 5 units and x units.
Step 2:
By substituting the known values, we get
Rounding this off to the nearest hundred, we get that x is 12 units long.
This is a refreshing question!
We are given that
f(r)=ar+b, and
Sum f(r) =125 for r=1 to 5
Sum f(r) = 475 for r=1 to 10.
and we know, using Gauss's method, that
G(n)=sum (1,2,3.....n) = n(n+1)/2 or
G(n)=n(n+1)/2
Sum f(r) =125 for r=1 to 5
=>
sum=a(sum of 1 to 5) + 5b => G(5)a+5b=125 [G(5)=15]
15a+5b=125 ...................................................(1)
Similarly, Sum f(r) = 475 for r=1 to 10 => G(10)a+5b=475 [G(10)=55]
=>
55a+10b=475.................................................(2)
Solve system of equations (1) and (2)
(2)-2(1)
55-2(15)a=475-2(125) => 25a=225 =>
a=9
Substitute a=9 in 1 => 15(9)+5b=125 => 5b=-10
b=-2
Substitute a and b into f(r),
f(r)=9r-2
check: sum f(r), r=1,5 = (9-2)+(18-2)+(27-2)+(36-2)+(45-2)=135-10=125 [good]
We define the sum of f(r) for r=1 to n as
S(n)=sum f(r) for r=1 to n = 9(sum 1,2,3....n)-2n = 9n(n+1)/2-2n = 9G(n)-2n
S(n)=9n(n+1)/2-2n
checks:
S(5)=9(15)-2(5)=135-10=125 [good]
S(10)=9(55)-2(10)=495-20=475 [good]
Hence
(a)
S(n)=sum f(r) for r=1,n
= 9(sum i=1,n)+n(-2)
= 9(n(n+1)/2 -2n
=(9(n^2+n)/2) -2n
(b) sum f(r) for i=8,18
=sum f(r) for i=1,18 - sum f(r) for i=1,7
=S(18)-S(7)
=(9(18^2-18)/2-2(18))-(9(7^2-7)/2-2(7))
=1503-238
=1265
