ANSWER
The solution is
EXPLANATION
The given equations are:
and
We multiply equation 1 by 3 to get,
We multiply equation 2 also by 2 to get,
We subtract equation 4 from equation 3 to get,
This implies that,
We put this value of y into any of the equations say equation 2
Simplify
Group like terms
Simplify,
Divide both sides by 3 to get,
Therefore the solution is
The correct answer is option D.
You use the arithmetic sequence formula and input the information given to you.
tn = a + (n-1)d
t(56) is what your looking for so don't worry about the tn.
a is your first term,
a = 15.
n is the position of the term you are looking for, n = 56.
And d is the common difference, you find this by taking t2 and subtracting t1. t2=18 and t1=15.
d = 18 - 15 = 3
Inputting it all into the formula you get,
t(56) = 15 + (56-1)(3)
term 56 = 180.
You use this formula to find any term in a sequence provided you are given enough info. You can also manipulate it if you are asked to find something else like the first term(a), common difference(d) or term position(n). It just depends on what the question is asking and what information you are given. :)
