(2x + 23), (8x + 2) and (20x – 52) are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
Prove that the common difference of the sequence is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given (2x + 23), (8x + 2) and (20x - 52) are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
(8x + 2) - (2x + 23) = (20x - 52) - (8x + 2)
or, 6x - 21 = 12x - 54
or, 12x - 6x = - 21 + 54 = 33
or, 6x = 33
or, 2x = 11
∴ x = 11/2
∴2x + 23 = 2 × 11/2 + 23 = 34
8x + 2 = 8 × 11/2 + 2 = 46 and
20x - 52 = 20 × 11/2 - 52 = 110 - 52 = 58
34, 46 and 58 are three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence.
∴ Common difference(d) = 46 - 34 = 58 - 46 = 12, it is proved.
Hence, the common difference of the sequence is 12.

Find the domain and range
Answer:
Yes
Domain: 1, -1, 0, -3, 3
Range: 1, -1, 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain is in the left oval, the range is in the right oval. To find if its a function you have to make sure the domain (left side) doesn't "cheat". One number in the domain cant have more than one number in the range (right side), BUT (for future reference) the range can cheat. As shown, the right side numbers 1 and 6 have two different arrow pointed at them. As long as the domain doesnt "cheat" it is a function

5x-15y=-20, 5x-4y=-9 systems of equations (elimination)
Answer:
(- 1, 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 15y = - 20 → (1)
5x - 4y = - 9 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 1 and adding to (1) will eliminate the x- term
- 5x + 4y = 9 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate x
0 - 11y = - 11
- 11y = - 11 ( divide both sides by - 11 )
y = 1
Substitute y = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (1)
5x - 15(1) = - 20
5x - 15 = - 20 ( add 15 to both sides )
5x = - 5 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = - 1
solution is (- 1, 1 )
A map of a nature park has a scale of 2 inches to 1.5 miles. There are two trails that are 8 inches apart on the map. What is the actual distance between the two trails?
Answer:
6 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
2 inches : 1.5 miles
8 inches : 4(2 inches)
8 inches : 4(1.5 miles)
8 inches : 6 miles
6 miles away
-Chetan K
The actual distance between the two trails is 6 miles.
Given the scale of the map is 2 inches to 1.5 miles, we can set up a proportion to find the actual distance between the two trails.
Let x represent the actual distance between the trails in miles. The proportion would be:
(2 inches / 1.5 miles) = (8 inches / x miles)
Now, solving for x:
2/1.5 = 8/x
Cross-multiplying:
2x = 1.5 × 8
2x = 12
Divide by 2:
x = 6
So, the actual distance between the two trails is 6 miles.

y = 2x - 9
y = 1/2x + 3
These two lines are:
parallel
perpendicular
neither
Answer:
neither
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes
The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines = - 1
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 2x - 9 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 2
y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
2 ≠ [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , then lines are not parallel
2 × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 1 ≠ - 1, then lines are not perpendicular

I need a similar denominator of 12 13/20 and 17 1/8.

The table shows the population of a small town over time. The function P = 10,550(1. 1)x models the population x years after the year 2000. A 2-column table with 5 rows. The first column is labeled years after 2000, x with entries 0, 3, 4, 7, 10. The second column is labeled population, P with entries 10,5000; 14,000; 15,500; 20,500; 27,000. For which year would this model most likely be sufficient to make a prediction of the population? 1950 2005 2025 2050.
The population model is most sufficient for 2005 because 2005 is the closest to 2000
The population function is given as:
[tex]P(x) = 10550(1.1)^x[/tex]
From the question, we understand that the population model is for years after 2000.
This means that the model cannot be used for the year 1950; because 1950 is before 2000.
The model can be used for years 2005, 2025 and 2050.
However, it is most sufficient for 2005 because 2005 is the closest to 2000, and the population model can change with time

Suppose two bicyclists start at the same location.
The first bicyclist rides due north and the other rides
due west. Find the speed that each bicyclist rode in
miles per hour if they are 8V2 miles apart after riding
for 2 hours at the same speed
Answer:
4 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between the cyclists is the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle. The hypotenuse is √2 times the length of the legs in such a triangle, so each cyclist must have ridden 8 miles in 2 hours.
Their speed is (8 mi)/(2 h) = 4 mi/h.
_____
Additional comment
Consider an isosceles right triangle with leg lengths 1. Then the Pythagorean theorem tells us the length of the hypotenuse is ...
c² = a² +b² . . . square of hypotenuse is sum of squares of legs
c² = 1² +1² . . . . both legs are 1 in our example triangle
c² = 2
c = √2
That is, the hypotenuse is √2 times the leg length.

======================================================
Explanation:
You could use the AC method to factor, but I think the method described below is a more efficient way of factoring.
Set the given expression equal to zero and solve for x using the quadratic formula. So the goal is to find the roots for [tex]9x^2-42x+49=0[/tex]
We'll plug in a = 9, b = -42, and c = 49.
[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-42)\pm\sqrt{(-42)^2-4(9)(49)}}{2(9)}\\\\x = \frac{42\pm\sqrt{0}}{18}\\\\x = \frac{42+0}{18}\\\\x = \frac{42}{18}\\\\x = \frac{7}{3}\\\\[/tex]
Because the root is x = 7/3, it leads to the factor 3x-7 = 0
Note that we go from x = 7/3 to 3x = 7 after multiplying both sides by 3. Then we subtract 7 from both sides.
It turns out that we have two copies of the identical factor (3x-7) because x = 7/3 is a double root.
So in reality we have the factorization (3x-7)(3x-7) which we can shorten into (3x-7)^2 if we wanted.
Use the box method or FOIL method to expand (3x-7)(3x-7) and you should get 9x^2-21x-21x+49 which simplifies to 9x^2-42x+49. This confirms we have the correct factorization.
Therefore, A and C are both 3, while B and D are both -7.
