7 + 2(x - 3) + 5x
= 7 + 2x - 6 + 5x <em>distributed 2 into x - 3</em>
= 7 - 6 + 2x + 5x <em>grouped like terms together</em>
= 1 + 7x

Answer:
The value of a₁₀ is -1352
Step-by-step explanation:
a₂ = -8
a₅ = -512
Now,
a₂ = -8 can be written as
a + d = -8 ...(1) and
a₅ = -512 can be written as
a + 4d = -512 ...(2)
Now, from equation (2) we get,
a + 4d = - 512
a + d + 3d = - 512
(-8) + 3d = - 512 (.°. <u>a + d = </u><u>-8</u><u>)</u>
3d = - 512 + 8
3d = - 504
d = - 504 ÷ 3
d = - 168
Now, for the value of a put the value of d = -168 in equation (1)
a + d = -8
a + (-168) = -8
a - 168 = -8
a = 168 - 8
a = 160
Now, For a₁₀
a₁₀ = a + 9d
a₁₀ = 160 + 9(-168)
a₁₀ = 160 - 1512
a₁₀ = -1352
Thus, The value of a₁₀ is -1352

The answer should be .202. If the question is looking for rounding, it might want .2 instead, but only if it tells you to round. Just divide 101 by 500 in a calculator and that's your answer.
Hopefully this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
