3rd - 25 is the 3rd term in the sequence
There are 3 methods to solve this. elimination substitution and graphing but i am going to use the elimination method.
x+2y=17
<u> x-y =2
</u> 0+3y =15 ( subtracted down to eliminate the x)( x-x=0, 2y-(-y)=3y, and 17-2=15)
3y=15 (divide both sides by 3 to solve for y)
y=5
<u>substitute the y=5 in any of the above equations and solve for x
ie... ( </u>meaning where you find y in the equation, u replace it with a 5)
it will be easier to solve for x in (x-y=2) so i will use that one.
x-(5)=2 ( add 5 on both sides to solve for x)
x=7
<span>x+(2x-4)=11
Answer is x=5.</span>

MATH PROBLEM
Step-by-step explanation:
7,14,21,28,35,42,49,56,63,70,77,84,91,98,105,112,119,126
18,36,54,72,90,108,126
So the first person to get both of them is the 126th person
