Answer:
2, 16 and 256.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just substitute for n:-
first term ( when n = 1) = 2 * 2^(1-1)
= 2 * 1 = 2
4th term = 2 * 2^(4-1) = 16
8th term = 2* 2^(8-1) = 256
The transaction that is being used is a reflection
Perpendicular slopes multiply to -1, so are <em>negative reciprocals.</em>
-1 / -3 = 1/3
Answer: B. 1/3
As the exercise says, the triangles are similar. So, we can set up proportions between correspondent sides.
In order to solve for x we can set up the proportion between the horizontal and vertical sides:
Solving this proportion for x implies
Now you can solve for m and p using the pythagorean theorem, because both triangles are right:
Then, we know that the hypothenuse of the big triangle is m+p, so we have
which implies
