What number (X) comes next in the series (17, 9, 18, 7, 19, 5, 20, X)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The pattern is that every other number increases by 1, while the next decreases by 2

1. 17,18,19,20

2. 9,7,5,x

5-2 =3

Answer 2

3 is the answer.

Solutions:

Odd Terms: 17, 18, 19, 20

Find the common difference.

d = a₂ - a₁

d = 18 - 17

d = 1

Thus, for every odd term, the next terms are derived by adding 1.

Even Terms: 9, 7, 5, x

Find the common difference.

d = a₂ - a₁

d= 7 - 9

d = -2

Find x.

x = 5 + d

x = 5 + (-2)

x = 5 - 2

x = 3

Therefore, x = 3.

What is a  sequence?

In an arithmetic sequence, a term is obtained by adding a constant number to the preceding term. A sequence whose succeeding terms are obtained by adding a constant. Constant is called the common difference. Formula is a_n = a₁ + d(n - 1). The common difference is obtained by subtracting the first term from the second term.

Answers

Answer:

a. <B = 53°

b. BC = 14

c. x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine(theta) = Opp/HypCosine(theta) = Adj/HypTan(theta) = Opp/Adj

a. <B = ?

Use Sine.

Sine(<B) = 12 /15

<B = Sin^-1(12/15)

<B = 53.13

<B = 53°

b. BC = ?

Either use Sine(<A) = BC/16 or Cosine(<C) = BC/16

Will be using Cosine.

Cosine(<C) = BC/16

Cosine(30°) = BC/16

BC = 16 * Cos(30°)

BC = 13.856...

BC = 14

c. x = ?

Looking at the triangle. The triangle is isosceles which mean two side angle or side length are the same.

x = 14

Answer:

A: 53.13

B:13.86

C: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

A can be found by using the trigonometric ratio Sin.

Sin=

[tex] \frac{opp}{hyp} [/tex]

And we have our opposite side and hypotenuse. so insert it:

Sin=12/15

Therefore use sin inverse and input that fraction

[tex]sin { }^{ - 1} ( \frac{12}{15} )[/tex]

=53.13010235

Rounded off to two decimals

=53. 13

B can be found using sin again. Since we know that Sin is opp/hyp and we have the hyp, we are now looking for the opp.

So use Sin(60)=BC/16

Multiply 16 on both sides to get: 16Sin(30)=BC

13.85640646=BC

rounded off to two decimals:

13.86

C can be found using Tan. Tan is opp/adjacent

We have the adjacent and we are looking for the opposite.

So use:

tan(45)=X/14

Multiply 14 on both sides

14tan(45)=X

14=X

An architect is designing a house. She wants the bedroom to have the dimensions of 10 ft by 4 ft by 7 ft. The architect doubles all three dimensions to create the den. Does that mean the den will have double the volume of the bedroom?

Answers

The volume of the den ( 2240ft³ ) is 1960ft³ more than the volume of the bedroom ( 280ft³ ).

Hence, the den will not have double the volume of the bedroom.

Does the den have double the volume of the bedroom?

Given the dimensions in the question, the bedroom and the den takes the shape of rectangular prism.

Volume of rectangular prism is expressed as;

V = l × b × h

Given that;

Length of the bedroom l = 10ftBreadth of the bedroom B = 4ftHeight of the bedroom h = 7ftLength of the den = 2l = 2×10ft = 20ftBreadth of the den = 2B = 2×4ft = 8ftHeight of the den  = 2h = 2×7ft = 14ft

First we calculate the volume of the bedroom.

V = l × b × h

Vr = 10ft × 4ft × 7ft

Vr = 280ft³

Next, we determine the volume of the den

V = l × b × h

Vd = 20ft × 8ft × 14ft

Vd = 2240ft³

The volume of the den ( 2240ft³ ) is 1960ft³ more than the volume of the bedroom ( 280ft³ ).

Hence, the den will not have double the volume of the bedroom.

You are stationary on the ground and are watching a bird fly horizontally towards you at a rate of 3 m/s. The bird is located 60 m above your head. How fast does the angle of elevation of your head change when the horizontal distance between you and the bird is 80 m? (Leave your answer as an exact number.)

Answers

Based on the rate the bird is flying and the distance above your head, the speed of change in the angle of elevation is 0.018 rad/sec.

5y = x
The solution to the given system of equations is (x,y). What is the value of y?


Answers

Answer:

The value of y is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the system of equation:

x + y = 24

5y = x

First, plug in 5y for x in the first equation:

x + y = 24

(5y) + y = 24

Simplify. Combine like terms. Like terms are terms that have the same amount of the same variable:

(5y + y) = 24

(6y) = 24

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Divide 6 from both sides of the equation:

(6y)/6 = (24)/6

y = 24/6 = 4

Now, plug in 4 for y in one of the given equations in the system of equation:

x + y = 24

x + (4) = 24

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Subtract 4 from both sides of the answer:

x + 4 = 24

x + 4 (-4) = 24 (-4)

x = 24 - 4

x = 20

x = 20 , y = 4

~

Check. Use the other equation. Plug in 4 for y, and 20 for x:

5y = x

5(4) = (20)

5 * 4 = 20

20 = 20 (True)

~

The value of y is 4.

Right triangles and trigonometry

Answers

Answer:

x=5.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a right triangle (notice the right angle), with one of the angles being equal to 64 degrees

We also know one of the sides is 42, another is x, and the other one is not marked

We want to find the value of x, which we can do using trigonometry

The 3 main trigonometric functions are:
Sine, which is opposite/hypotenuse

Cosine, which is adjacent/hypotenuse

Tangent, which is opposite/adjacent

First, let's find which side is which

The side opposite the 64 degree angle is the opposite; this side is the side marked as 42

The adjacent side would be the other leg (one of the sides creating the right angle); in this case, that would be the side marked as x

The hypotenuse in this case would be the side that hasn't been marked yet

Since we are given values for both the opposite and the adjacent, let's use tangent to find x

Since 64° was the angle we referenced to determine which side was which, we will also make the ratio with this angle.

Therefore, the ratio will be:

[tex]tan(64)=\frac{42}{x}[/tex]

Now we need to solve for x; start by multiplying both sides by x

x * tan(64) = 12

Now divide both sides by tan(64)

x = [tex]\frac{12}{tan(64)}[/tex]

Plug [tex]\frac{12}{tan(64)}[/tex] into your calculator; make sure the calculator is on degree, not radian mode

[tex]\frac{12}{tan(64)}[/tex] ≈ 5.11 (rounded to the nearest hundreth)

So x is about 5.11

Answers

Answers:

x = 16

y = 41

z = 123

==========================================================

Explanation:

Focus on the large triangle on the left.

The three interior angles of any triangle add to 180 degrees.

57+82+y = 180

y+139 = 180

y = 180-139

y = 41

-------------------

Now focus on the large triangle on the right.

We'll use the same idea as before.

x+102+62 = 180

x+164 = 180

x = 180-164

x = 16

-------------------

The last triangle to focus on is the small one in the middle.

Use the values of x and y to find z.

x+y+z = 180

16+41+z = 180

57+z = 180

z = 180-57

z = 123

Answer:

The angles inside of a triangle always add up to 360 therefore we can easily determine what the angle of x and y is because they are a part of two triangles that have two angles each.  Let's first determine x.

[tex]x = 180 - (102+ 62)[/tex]

[tex]x = 180 - 164[/tex]

[tex]x = 16[/tex]

The second step that we need to do is to determine y using 82 and 57.

[tex]y = 180 - (82 + 57)[/tex]

[tex]y = 180 - 139[/tex]

[tex]y = 41[/tex]

The final step is to determine z using x and y

[tex]z = 180 - (x + y)[/tex]

[tex]z = 180 - (16 + 41)[/tex]

[tex]z = 180 - 57[/tex]

[tex]z = 123[/tex]

Therefore, x = 15 and y = 41 and z = 123
