Answer:

1) 5y + 5z

2) 10x⁴ - 10x³ + 2x² + 18x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the subtraction of the following polynomial expressions:

In order to make it easier for us to perform the required mathematical operations, we must first rearrange the terms in the subtrahend by alphabetical order.

-3x - 4y + 11z

-3x - 9y + 6z ⇒ This is the subtrahend.

Now, we can finally perform the subtraction on both trinomials:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\left \ \quad\:\:\:\:{-3x - 4y + 11z} \atop -\quad{\underline{-3x - 9y + 6z\:\:\underline}} \right.}$

In the subtrahend, the coefficients of x and y are both negative. Thus, performing the subtraction operations on these coefficients transforms their sign into positive.

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\left \ \quad\:\:\:\:{-3x - 4y + 11z} \atop -\quad{\underline{-3x - 9y + 6z\:\:\underline}}\right.} \\\qquad\sf {\qquad\:\:\:0x\:+\:5y\:+5z$

The difference is: 5y + 5z.

Similar to the how we arranged the given trinomials in Question 1, we must rearrange the given polynomials in descending degree of terms before subtracting like terms.

3x⁴- 4x³ + 7x - 2 ⇒ Already in descending order (degree).

9 - 7x⁴ + 6x³- 2x² - 11x ⇒ -7x⁴ + 6x³- 2x² - 11x + 9

In subtracting polynomials, we can only subtract like terms, which are terms that have the same variables and exponents.

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\left \ \quad\:\:{3x^4\:-4x^3\:+\:0x^2\:+\:7x\:-\:2} \atop -\quad{\underline{-7x^4\:+6x^3\:-2x^2\:-11x\:+\:9 \:\:\underline}}\right.}$

In the minuend, I added the "0x²" to make it less-confusing for us to perform the subtraction operations.

The same rules apply in terms of coefficients with negative signs in the subtrahend, such as: -7x⁴, - 2x², and - 11x ⇒ their coefficients turn into positive when performing subtraction.

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\left \ \quad\:\:{3x^4\:-4x^3\:+\:0x^2\:+\:7x\:-\:2} \atop -\quad{\underline{-7x^4\:+6x^3\:-2x^2\:-11x\:+\:9 \:\:\underline}}\right.} \\\qquad\sf {\qquad\:\:10x^4-10x^3+2x^2+18x\:-11$

Therefore, the difference is: 10x⁴ - 10x³ + 2x² + 18x - 11.

A right circular cylinder has a height of 19 3/4 ft and a diameter 1 2\5 times its height.

alexira [117]

Answer:

Volume of cylinder is 34833.21 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A right circular cylinder having height $19\frac{3}{4}$ ft and diameter $\frac{12}{5}$ times its height.

Given : diameter $\frac{12}{5}$ times its height that is

diameter $\frac{12}{5}$ times $19\frac{3}{4}$ that is

Diameter = $\frac{12}{5} \times \frac{79}{4}$

Diameter = $\frac{237}{5}$ ft

Radius is half of diameter,

Radius = $\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{237}{5}=\frac{237}{10}$ ft

$\text{Volume of Cylinder}=\pi r^2h$

Substitute the values, we get,

$\text{Volume of Cylinder}= \pi (\frac{237}{10})^2 \times \frac{79}{4}$

$\text{Volume of Cylinder}= \times 3.14 \times (23.7)^2 \times 19.75$

$\text{Volume of Cylinder}=34833.21$

Thus, volume of cylinder is 34833.21 ft³

Find the nth term of the sequence 7,25,51,85,127

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Let a (n) denote the n-th term of the given sequence.

Check the forward differences, and denote the n-th difference by b (n). That is,

b (n) = a (n + 1) - a (n)

These so-called first differences are

b (1) = a (2) - a (1) = 25 - 7 = 18

b (2) = a (3) - a (2) = 51 - 25 = 26

b (3) = a (4) - a (3) = 85 - 51 = 34

b (4) = a (5) - a (4) = 127 - 85 = 42

Now consider this sequence of differences,

18, 26, 34, 42, …

and notice that the difference between consecutive terms in this sequence b is 8:

26 - 18 = 8

34 - 26 = 8

42 - 34 = 8

and so on. This means b is an arithmetic sequence, and in particular follows the rule

b (n) = 18 + 8 (n - 1) = 8n + 10

for n ≥ 1.

So we have

a (n + 1) - a (n) = 8n + 10

or, replacing n + 1 with n,

a (n) = a (n - 1) + 8 (n - 1) + 10

a (n) = a (n - 1) + 8n + 2

We can solve for a (n) by iteratively substituting:

a (n) = [a (n - 2) + 8 (n - 1) + 2] + 8n + 2

a (n) = a (n - 2) + 8 (n + (n - 1)) + 2×2

a (n) = [a (n - 3) + 8 (n - 2) + 2] + 8 (n + (n - 1)) + 2×2

a (n) = a (n - 3) + 8 (n + (n - 1) + (n - 2)) + 3×2

and so on. The pattern should be clear; we end up with

a (n) = a (1) + 8 (n + (n - 1) + … + 3 + 2) + (n - 1)×2

The middle group is the sum,

$\displaystyle 8\sum_{k=2}^nk=8\sum_{k=1}^nk-8=\frac{8n(n+1)}2-8=4n^2+4n-8$

so that

a (n) = a (1) + (4n ² + 4n - 8) + 2 (n - 1)

a (n) = 4n ² + 6n - 3
