Answer:

  -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting x=4 into the equation gives a 2-step linear equation in y. It is solved by isolating the variable and making its coefficient be 1.

__

<h3>use x=4</h3>

When x=4, the equation becomes ...

  -3x +9y = -57

  -3(4) +9y = -57

  -12 +9y = -57

<h3>solve 2-step equation</h3>

The <u>first step</u> is to "isolate" the variable term (9y) by adding the opposite of the constant that is on the same side of the equation. The result is that the variable term is by itself on one side of the equal sign.

  -12 +12 +9y = -57 +12 . . . . . add the opposite of -12

  9y = -45 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

The <u>second step</u> is to make the coefficient of y be 1. We do that by multiplying by its inverse, 1/9. Equivalently, we divide by 9.

  (1/9)(9y) = (1/9)(-45) . . . . multiply by the inverse of 9

  y = -5 . . . . . . simplify

An object falls 9 m in the first second, another 27 m in the second second, and then 108 m more in the third second. If this pat
aev [14]

Answer: B) 684m

Step-by-step explanation:

From 9 to 27 is a 3 times increase, from 27 to 108 is a 4 times increase. So following the pattern, we can determine that it will increase 5 times, and fall another 540m in second 4. Then, we simply add all the numbers together to get the answer!

What is the closed linear form for this sequence given a1 = 0.3 and an + 1 = an + 0.75?
german

Answer:

The closed linear form of the given sequence is a_{n}=0.75n-0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the first term a_{1}=0.3 and a_{n+1}=a_{n}+0.75

To find the closed linear form for the given sequence

The formula for arithmetic sequence is

a_{n}=a_{1}+(n - 1)d  (where d is the common difference)

The above equation is of the given form  a_{n+1}=a_{n}+0.75

Comparing this we get d=0.75

With a_{1}=0.3 and d=0.75

We can substitute these values in a_{n}=a_{1}+(n - 1)d

a_{n}=a_{1}+(n - 1)d

=0.3+(n-1)(0.75)

=0.3+0.75n-0.75

=-0.45+0.75n

Rewritting as below

=0.75n-0.45

Therefore a_{n}=0.75n-0.45

Therefore the closed linear form of the given sequence is a_{n}=0.75n-0.45
