The 12th term of the arithmetic sequence is 10.5. The 18th term of this sequence is 13.5. Find the common difference and the first term.
let the n'th term be called x, and the value of the term y,
then there is a function y=a*x + b
that will give us all term we want.
this formula is also used for straight lines.
we just need a and b. we already got two data points. we can just plug the known x/y pairs into the formula
10.5 = a*12 + b
13.5 = a*18 + b
now lets manipulate these lines.
multiply the first line by 3 and the second line by 2
31.5 = a*36 + 3b
27 = a*36 + 2b
subtract the second line from the first line
4.5 = b
yey, we now know b, let's plus b into either line from above, I'll go with the first one, looks easier.
10.5 = a*12 + 4.5
6 = a*12
0.5 = a
now y=a*x + b can be filled with a and b
y = 0.5 * x + 4.5
for x=1 (the first term) it's f(1)=5
each step is 0.5, hence the common difference.
2and way:(13.5-10.5)/(18-12)
= 3 / 6
= 0.5
we got the comment difference by looking at the full difference over 6 steps and divined by these 6 steps.
from step 12 to step one it's 11 steps down
10.5 - 0.5*11
= 10.5 - 5.5
= 5
okay I admit... 2and way to do it might be faster and more intuitive... :DHow do radical expressions relate to everyday life , give atleast 3 examples !!!!!
For all of the Following use the function LaTeX: P\left(x\right)\:=\:\left(x+3\right)^2+2 . My original vertex is
Answer:
A) Q(x) = (x + 3)² + 5, and the vertex is (-3, 5)
B) R(x) = (x - 3)² + 2, and the vertex is (3, 2)
C) S(x) = (x - 1)² - 5, and the vertex is (1, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is P(x) = (x + 3)² + 2
The given function is a parabolic function in vertex form, f(x) = a·(x - h)² + k, and vertex, (h, k)
By comparison, the vertex of the function P(x) = (x + 3)² + 2 is (-3, 2)
A) A function f(x) translated α units UP gives
f(x) (translated α units UP) → f(x) + α
A translation of the function 3 units UP is given by adding 3 to the given function as follows;
Q(x) = P(x) + 3
∴ Q(x) = (x + 3)² + 2 + 3 = (x + 3)² + 5
Q(x) = (x + 3)² + 5, and the vertex by comparison to f(x) = a·(x - h)² + k, and vertex, (h, k) is (-3, 5)
B) A function f(x) translated b units RIGHT gives;
f(x) translated b units right → f(x - b)
∴ P(x) = (x + 3)² + 2 translated 6 units RIGHT gives;
P(x) = (x + 3)² + 2 (translated 6 units RIGHT) → R(x) = (x + 3 - 6)² + 2 = (x - 3)² + 2
R(x) = (x - 3)² + 2, and the vertex by comparison is (3, 2)
C) A function translated α units DOWN and b units RIGHT is given as follows;
[tex]f(x) \ translated \ by\ \dbinom{b}{a} \rightarrow f(x - b) - a[/tex]
Therefore, the given function, P(x) = (x + 3)² + 2, translated 7 units DOWN and 4 units RIGHT gives;
[tex]P(x) = (x + 3)^2 + 5 \ translated \ by\ \dbinom{4}{-7} \rightarrow P(x - 4) - 7 = S(x)[/tex]
S(x) = P(x - 4) - 7 = (x + 3 - 4)² + 2 - 7 = (x - 1)² - 5
[tex]P(x) = (x + 3)^2 + 5 \ translated \ by\ \dbinom{4}{-7} \rightarrow (x - 1)^2 - 5= S(x)[/tex]
S(x) = (x - 1)² - 5, and the vertex by comparison is (1, -5)

Five consecutive multiples of 7 have a sum of 350. What is the smallest of these numbers?
A. 70
B. 56
C. 77
D. 84
Answer:
B. 56
Step-by-step explanation:
x + (x + 7 ) + ( x + 14 ) + ( x + 21 ) + ( x + 28 ) = 350
( x + x + x + x + x ) + ( 7 + 14 + 21 + 28 ) = 350
5x + 70 = 350

5x = 280
x = 56
Hope this helps!
The smallest number is 56, the correct option is B.
What is Sum?The sum is the output of the mathematical operation, Addition.
Let the first number is x, they are multiples of 7,
As they are multiples of 7, the consecutive numbers will be added by 7 for next term.
The 5 consecutive numbers can be written as x, (x+7), (x+14), (x+21), (x+28).
The equation can be formed for the numbers that are given as,
An equation is a mathematical statement that relates an algebraic expression with other expression by an equal sign.
The sum of the multiples is 350
x + (x + 7 ) + ( x + 14 ) + ( x + 21 ) + ( x + 28 ) = 350
Grouping the variables and the constants separately
( x + x + x + x + x ) + ( 7 + 14 + 21 + 28 ) = 350
5x + 70 = 350
Adding (-70) to both sides of the equation
5x = 280
Dividing both sides by 5
x = 56

In ABC, what is the measure of angle B?
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two remote interior angles (a remote interior angle is the interior angle that is not supplementary to the exterior angle given -- in this case A and B are remote angles) equals the exterior angle.
In This case A + B = 140
A = x + 2
B = 2x
x +2 + 2x = 140
3x + 2 = 140 Subtract 2 from both sides
3x = 138 Divide by 3
x = 138/3
x = 46
<B = 2x
<B = 2*46

A 30-60-90 triangle follows a unique pattern. It's hypotenuse is double the shortest leg and its longest leg is the shortest leg times the square root of 3.
In this case, we are given the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is 2 times the shortest leg, so the shortest leg, f, must be 10.
Then, the longest leg of the triangle is the shortest leg times the square root of 3. Therefore, the longest leg is 10 times sqrt(3).

A moving company uses plastic wrap to bundle groups of boxes together. If a portion of plastic wrap that measures 900 inches in length is used to bundle each group of boxes, how many groups of boxes can be bundled using 1500 feet of the same type of plastic wrap?
Answer: 20 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
First and foremost, we need to know that 1 foot = 12 inches. Therefore, 1500 feet will be converted to inches and this will be:
1500 feet = 1500 × 12 = 18000 inches
Since each group of box requires 900 inches, then the number of group of boxes that can be used in this case will be:
= 18000/900.
= 20 groups of boxes

The square pyramids are similar. Find the volume of the smaller pyramid. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
A. 3.70 yd
B. 3.90 yd
C. 4.21 yd
D. 4.68 yd
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the pyramids are similar, the scale factor will be 3. So the height of the small pyramid is 6.3/3=2.1. The volume will be (1/3)*(2.1)*(2.3)^2=3.70
The volume of smaller square pyramid is 3.703 cubic yards. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
What are similar figures?Similar figures mean when two figures are of the same shape but are of different sizes. In other words, two figures are called similar when they both have a lot of the same properties but still may not be identical.
Given that, the two square pyramids are similar.
Let the height of smaller square pyramid be h.
As we know, when two geometrical figures are similar, their sides will be in proportion.
Now, 6.9/2.3 = 6.3/h
3=6.3/h
h=2.1 yd
The volume of square based pyramid =a²h/3.
Thus, volume = (2.3²×2.1)/3
= 11.109/3
= 3.703 cubic yards
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Answer:
B, [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is essentially asking one to envision a line passing through the set of points on the coordinate plane, then to find the constant of proportionality of that line. The constant of proportionally, also known as the rate of change, or the slope, is a number that can be used to describe the range that happens between points on a line. The following formula can be used to find the slope of a line passing through a set of points.
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Where the points ([tex]x_1,y_1[/tex]) and ([tex]x_2,y_2[/tex]) are points on the line.
As one can see, on the given coordinate plane, the points ([tex]2,-1[/tex]), and ([tex]4,-2[/tex]) are on the coordinate plane. Substitute these points into the formula to find the slope of the line, then simplify to evaluate the equation and find the slope,
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
([tex]2,-1[/tex]), ([tex]4,-2[/tex])
[tex]=\frac{-2-(-1)}{(4)-(2)}[/tex]

6=3x+2y
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{2^{x-3}}{8^{2y-3}}=16^{x-y}\\\\\frac{2^{x-3}}{(2^{3})^{2y-3}}=(2^{4})^{x-y}\\\\\frac{2^{x-3}}{2^{3*(2y-3)}}=2^{4*(x-y)}\\\\\frac{2^{x-3}}{2^{6y-9}}=2^{4x-4y}\\\\2^{x-3 -(6y-9)}=2^{4x-4y}\\\\2^{x-3-6y+9}=2^{4x-4y}\\\\2^{x-6y+6}=2^{4x-4y}[/tex]
base is same, so equate the powers
x - 6y + 6 = 4x - 4y
Subtract 'x' from both sides
-6y + 6 = 4x -x - 4y
-6y + 6 = 3x - 4y
Add '6y' to both sides
6 = 3x - 4y + 6y
6 = 3x + 2y

Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is (1/8) and y intercept can be found by setting x=0.
13. Which equation represents the line below?
A. y = -x +3
B. y = 2x - 6
c. y = -x + 4
D. y = 1/2x -3
Answer:
y = -2/3x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to calculate the slope of the line. We can do this by using the slope formula using two points:
(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
If we take the points (-3,5) and (3,1), then: y₂ = 1; y₁ = 5; x₂ = 3; x₁ = -3
Next, we can substitute in values in the equation above to get (1 -5)/(3+3)
** We got 3+3 because it was 3 - (-3), where two negatives equal a positive**
Then, we get, -4/6, which simplifies to -2/3. Our slope is -2/3
After that, we need to find the y-intercept, which is where the line intercepts the y-axis. Here, that is at (0,3).
Therefore, if we put the above information into slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b --> m = -2/3; b = 3
y = -2/3x + 3

4 + 5x = 16
Statement 2:
Cost of making a bike bag= $4
Selling price of the bike bag = $5
Profit = $16
Let x = number of bike bag
Profit = selling price - cost price
16 = 5x - 4x
16 = x(5 - 4)
Also written as
(5 - 4)x = 16

length of second yo-yo = 1
Length of third yo-yo = x
Total = 4 1/3
Total length = length of first yo-yo + length of second yo-yo + length of third yo-yo
4 1/3 = 1 3/4 + 1 + x
4 1/3 = 2 3/4 + x
4 1/3 - 2 3/4 = x
13/3 - 11/4 = x
(52-33) / 12 = x
19/12 = x
x = 1 7/12
