Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You are to assume in both problems that the two triangles are similar. That is a very dangerous assumption -- especially in later math classes. But in this case, there is no other way to do the problem. The two sets of triangles look like they are proportional. So set up two ratios that are = to each other
On the left
long side small triange / long side large triangle = base small triangle / base large triangle
On the right
hypotenuse/longest leg = hypotenuse / longest leg.
Problem A
Set up the similar Proportion
5/40 = x/20 Cross Multiply
40x = 20*5
40x = 100 Divide by 40
x = 100/40
x = 2.5
Problem B
Again set up the similar triangle proportion
15/10 = x/2 Multiply by 2
15*2/10 = x
3 = x
Answer:
an = 17n - 46
a50 = 804
Step-by-step explanation:
-29, -12, 5, 22, ...
Subtract each number from the next one.
-12 - (-29) = 17
5 - (-12) = 17
22 - 5 = 17
The common difference is 17. This is an arithmetic sequence which starts with -29, and in which each subsequent value is 17 more than the previous value.
a1 = -29
a2 = -29 + 17
a3 = -29 + 2(17)
a4 = -29 + 3(17)
Notice that for each term, you have -29 and something added to it. What you add to -29 is 17 multiplied by 1 less than the number of the term. For term 1, 1 less than 1 is 0. You add 0 * 17 to -29 and get -29. term 1 is -29. For term 2, 1 less than 2 is 1. You add 1 * 17 to -29 and get -12, etc.
For term n, 1 less than n is n - 1. Add (n - 1) * 17 to -29 to get term n.
an = -29 + 17(n - 1)
This formula can be simplified.
an = -29 + 17n - 17
an = -46 + 17n
an = 17n - 46
a50 = 17(50) - 46
a50 = 804
