===========================================
Explanation:
There are a few approaches. Here's one way to solve.
Let d be the common difference between the terms.
We add d to each term of this arithmetic sequence to get the next term.
First term = mSecond term = 12 = m+dThird term = n = (m+d)+d = m+2dFocusing on the second equation, we can solve for d like so
m+d = 12
d = 12-m
This is then plugged into the third equation
n = m+2d
n = m+2(12-m)
n = m+24-2m
n = 24-m
Therefore,
m+n = m+(24-m) = 24
It turns out that it doesn't matter what m and n are because m+n is always equal to 24 in this case.
-----------------
A more concrete example:
Let's say m = 2. We won't set up n just yet but we'll be able to compute it fairly soon.
Since m = 2, this means d = 12-m = 12-2 = 10. This is the gap between adjacent or neighboring terms.
If d = 10, then the third term must be n = 12+d = 12+10 = 22
We can then see that m+n = 2+22 = 24
-----------------
I'll do another example:
m = 5
d = 12-m = 12-5 = 7
n = 12+d = 7 = 19
m+n = 5+19 = 24
Whenever in doubt, or if you get stuck, it helps to come up with actual numeric values to hopefully clear things up.
-----------------
An alternative way to get the answer:
Let's try to determine what m+n is actually saying. We have 12 right in the middle of the first term (m) and third term (n). Because the gap between the numbers is the same (that being d), we know that 12 is the midpoint of m and n. It might help to draw out a number line to see what's going on.
The midpoint of m and n is (m+n)/2
Set this equal to 12 and isolate the "m+n"
(firstTerm+thirdTerm)/2 = second term
(m+n)/2 = 12
m+n = 2*12
m+n = 24
So in general, if the first three terms of the arithmetic sequence are m, k, n, then m+n = 2k.
Completing the Square
2. Solve the equation by completing the square. Show your work.
x2 – 30x = –125
Step 1: Add (b/2)^2 to both sides of the equation. (2 points)
Step 2: Factor the left side of the equation. Show your work. (2 points)
Hint: It is a perfect square trinomial.
Step 3: Take the square root of both sides of the equation from Step 2. (1 point)
Step 4: Simplify the radical and solve for x. Show your work. (1 point)
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
x^2 – 30x = –125
-30/2 = -15
(-15)^2 = 225
Step 2
x^2 -30x+225 = -125+225
(x-15)^2 = 100
Step 3
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x-15)^2) = sqrt(100)
Step 4
x-15 = ±10
x-15 =10 x-15 = -10
x= 10+15 x = -10 +15
x = 25 x = 5

A man earned $3000 the first year he worked. If he received a raise of $600 at the end of each year, what was his salary during the 15th year?
A) $8400
B) None of these
C) $11,400
D) $12,000
Answer:
$11,400
Step-by-step explanation:
3,000+14(600)=11,400
We know that it expands by $600 a year and we are looking for the salary during the 15th year. During the 15th year, it could be using the salary of the 14th year since it is during not after. We then add that to the base salary of $3,000 so then we have $11,400.

Lines 3x-2y+7=0 and 6x+ay-18=0 is perpendicular. What is the value of a?
1/9
9
-9
-1/9
Pls answer
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf a = 9 }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines are given to us which are perpendicular to each other and we need to find out the value of a . The given equations are ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow 3x - 2y +7=0 [/tex]
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow 6x +ay -18 = 0 [/tex]
Step 1 : Convert the equations in slope intercept form of the line .
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{3x}{2} +\dfrac{ 7 }{2}[/tex]
and ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow y = -\dfrac{6x }{a}+\dfrac{18}{a} [/tex]
Step 2: Find the slope of the lines :-
Now we know that the product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1. Therefore , from Slope Intercept Form of the line we can say that the slope of first line is ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow Slope_1 = \dfrac{3}{2} [/tex]
And the slope of the second line is ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow Slope_2 =\dfrac{-6}{a} [/tex]
Step 3: Multiply the slopes :-
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}\times \dfrac{-6}{a}= -1 [/tex]
Multiply ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow \dfrac{-9}{a}= -1[/tex]
Multiply both sides by a ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow (-1)a = -9 [/tex]
Divide both sides by -1 ,
[tex]\sf\longrightarrow \boxed{\blue{\sf a = 9 }} [/tex]
Hence the value of a is 9 .
Graph the following equations by plotting 3 points and then connecting the points to form a line. Show your work to find the 3 points and then list the ordered pairs you used as part of your answer.
Answer:
The way I would tackle these types of problems would be to make a table, then graph the points using the results I get.
Step-by-step explanation:
So explaining the table is kinda hard since I suck at explaining, so I've attached a file showing the table I've made for number 1.
First Step:
Make the table. Make it a 3x4 table. For the top row, put y, the equation (I put 'y=2x' as shown in number 1), then x. Then for the left column, go down by one box, then put: -1, 0, 1. Really, you can put any numbers, but to make it easy for yourself, just write the numbers I've listed. These will be your y-values you'll be substituting.
Second Step:
a.) Plugging in the numbers. For the middle column, I've put down y=2x in each box, as shown in my table. Then for each of those boxes, plug in the numbers to the left of them and substitute them for the y-value. For example, look at the second row. The left box has '-1', so I replaced the 'y' in the equation and got '(-1)=2x'.
b.) After substituting the y-values, solve for x. For this case, you'll need to divide both sides by 2. If it doesn't make much sense, think about a seesaw. If you have 5 pounds on both sides, the seesaw will stay balanced. Add an additional 5 pounds to one side, then the seesaw will start tipping towards the heavier sides. So in order to keep an equation balanced, you must do any action to both sides of the equation. After diving both sides by 2, you'll get the value for x.
Final Step:
After finding the x-values for each of the y-values, it's time to graph the equations. Remember, x is left to right and y is down to up. To graph them, let's use the second row for example. y=-1 and x=-0.5. So all you need to do is to start from the origin (0,0), then go half a unit to the left, as x is negative, then go a unit down, as y is negative, then make a point. The rest should be pretty straight forward.
After making all three points, just get a ruler or any straight edge, then align it along those three points, then just make a line, and boom! You've solved number 1! For the purpose of saving my time, I'm pretty sure you can solve the rest using what I've just told you. Good luck!

-3, 5, -7, 9, -11,...
To find:
The correct statement about the given sequence.
Solution:
We have,
-3, 5, -7, 9, -11,...
Here, "..." means there are more terms in the sequence. So, the sequence has more than 5 terms and option A is incorrect.
From the given sequence it is clear that the 4th term is 9. So, option B is correct.
Clearly, 5th terms is -11. So, [tex]f(5)=-11[/tex] and option C is incorrect.
The domain of a sequence is always the set of natural numbers. So, option D is correct.
In the given sequence the 4th term is 9. It means the point (4,9) lies on the graph of the sequence. So, option E is correct.
Therefore, the correct options are B, D, E.
What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (3, 1)(3,1) and (-3, -7)(−3,−7)?
Answer:
y = (4/3)x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (3, 1) and (-3, -7)? (Do not repeat the coordinates of the points.)
First we need to find the slope of the line through these two points. From (-3, -7) to (3, 1), x increases by 6 (which is the 'run') and y increases from -7 to 1 ( a 'rise' of 8). Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = 8/6, or m = 4/3.
Using the point-slope formula as our starting point, we insert the known values m = 4/3 and point (3, 1):
y - k = m(x - h) becomes y - 1 = (4/3)(x - 3). This in itself is a satisfactory answer. We could also write this equation in slope-intercept form, as follows:
y = 1 + (4/3)x - 4, or
y = (4/3)x - 3
Use elimination to solve the system 4x + 7y = –14 and 8x + 5y = 8 for x. Round to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
X= 7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply first equation by -2 and second equation by 1
-2(4x+7y=-14)
1(8x+5y= 8)
= -8x -14y =28
8x+5y=8
Add these equations to eliminate X:
-9y=36
-9y/-9 = 36/-9
y=- 4
Plug in Y to find X
4x + 7y = -14
4x+7(-4) = -14
4x-28+28= -14+28
4x= 14
X= 7/2

The cost price of an electric fan is Rs. 2800. If the shopkeeper marks its price 30℅ above the cost price and sells it at 10℅ discount, how much should a customer pay for it with 15℅ VAT?
Answer:
The customer will pay along with VAT = Rs 3767.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost price of an electric fan = 2800
Pirce after 30% above the cost price = 2800 + (30% of 2800 = 3640
Selling price after 10% discount = 3640 - (10% of 3640) = 3276
Now 15% VAT = 3276 x 15%
15% VAT = 491.4
The customer will pay along with VAT = 3276 + 491.4
The customer will pay along with VAT = Rs 3767.4
The demand function for Widgets is given by the equation P = 14 – 0.39Q, and the supply function is
given by the equation P = 0.61Q + 12. Find the market equilibrium price for Widgets.
Answer:
Equilibrium price for widgets = 13.22
Step-by-step explanation:
At equilibrium, quantity demand, Qd = quantity supplied, Qs
Demand
P = 14 – 0.39Q
P - 14 = - 0.39Q
Q = (P - 14) / - 0.39
Supply
P = 0.61Q + 12
P - 12 = 0.61Q
Q = (P - 12) / 0.61
Qd = Qs
(P - 14) / - 0.39 = (P - 12) / 0.61
Cross product
(P - 14) * 0.61 = - 0.39 * (P - 12)
0.61P - 8.54 = - 0.39P + 4.68
0.61P + 0.39P = 4.68 + 8.54
P = 13.22
Check
Q = (P - 14) / - 0.39
= (13.22 - 14) / - 0.39
= -0.78 / -0.39
= 2
Q = (P - 12) / 0.61
= (13.22 - 12) / 0.61
= 1.22 / 0.61
= 2
Therefore,
Equilibrium price for widgets = 13.22
Equilibrium quantity = 2

When two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles formed by the transversal (intersecting line) are congruent. This is called the corresponding angles postulate. It can be used in reverse: if two corresponding angles are congruent, then the non-transversal lines are parallel.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles 4 and 5 are corresponding; this means that they are sitting in the same places within their angle "bunch" for lack of a better word. We are then told that they are are congruent which means that they have the exact same measure. Corresponding angles can exist without being congruent, but because they are, that means that A and B HAVE to be parallel. So true.
