YA + AZ = YZ

22 + 16x = 166

16x = 166 - 22

16x = 144

x = 144/16

x = 9

AZ = 144

Answer:

AZ = 144 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Since here it is given that A is between Y and Z that means YZ is a straight line and A is any point between Y and Z.

Given, YA = 22

AZ = 16x

YZ = 166

Also, since A is in between Y and Z

⇒ YZ = YA + AZ

⇒ 166 = 22 + 16x

⇒ 144 = 16x

⇒ x = 9

Thus, AZ = 16x = 16 × 9 = 144 unit

Identify the 12th term of the arithmetic sequence in which a7 = 40 and a18 = 106.

Lady_Fox [76]

we are given

airthematic sequence

we can use nth term formula

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

n is number of terms

an is nth term

d is common difference

a1 is first term

We are given

a7=40

we can use it

$a_7=a_1+(7-1)d$

$40=a_1+6d$

$a_1+6d=40$

a18 = 106

$a_1_8=a_1+(18-1)d$

$a_1+17d=106$

we can subtract both equations

$a_1+17d-a_1-6d=106-40$

$11d=66$

$d=6$

now, we can find a1

$a_1+6d=40$

we can plug d=6

$a_1+6*6=40$

$a_1=4$

12th term:

$a_1_2=a_1+(12-1)d$

now, we can plug values

$a_1_2=4+(12-1)*6$

$a_1_2=4+66$

$a_1_2=70$

so, 12th term is 70...........Answer

An oblique prism with a square base of edge length x units has a volume of One-halfx3 cubic units. Which expression represents t

lara [203]

Answer:one-half x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Prism has a square base with length $x\ units$

If the volume of prism $V=\frac{1}{2}x^3\ units$

We know

$Volume=base\ area\times height$

Base area $=x\times x=x^2\ units$

$height=\frac{Volume}{area}$

$height=\frac{\frac{1}{2}x^3}{x^2}$

$height=\frac{x}{2}\ units$

The slope, m, of a linear equation can be found using the formula m = StartFraction y 2 minus y a Over x 2 minus x 1 EndFraction

aniked [119]

Answer:

y2 = m(x2-x1)+y1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the formula for finding the slope of a linear equation to be;

m = y2-y1/x2-x1 where x and y are from the ordered pairs (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

To get the equivalent equation for y2, we will make y2 the subject of tbw formula from the equation as shown:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

Cross multiplying

m(x2-x1) = y2-y1

mx2-mx1 = y2-y1

Adding y1 to both sides of the equation we have;

mx2-mx1 + y1= y2-y1+y1

y2 = mx2-mx1 + y1

y2 = m(x2-x1)+y1

This gives the resulting equation to solve for y2
