Answer:
The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol. See: Variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: <em>m = 7</em>
Step-by-step explanation: In this equation, since a -5 is being multiplied by <em>m</em>, in order to get <em>m</em> by itself, we must divide both sides of the equation by -5.
On the left side, our -5's cancel out and we are left with <em>m</em>. On the right side, -35 ÷ -5 gives us 7. So m = 7.
To check our answer, we plug 7 back in for <em>m</em> in the original equation and we get -5 (7) = -35 which is a true statement so we know our answer is correct.
Don't just do this problem in your head. It's extremely important to develop the habit of putting all your steps down on paper or digitally. It will really pay off for you down the line.
Easy
first term is n=1
so 10th term is n=10
5(10)+100=50+100=150
150 is 10th term

Answer:
The value of first coin will be $151.51 more than second coin in 15 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have just purchased two coins at a price of $670 each.
You believe that first coin's value will increase at a rate of 7.1% and second coin's value 6.5% per year.
We have to calculate the first coin's value after 15 years by using the formula
Where A = Future value
P = Present value
r = rate of interest
n = time in years
Now we put the values
A = (670)(2.797964)
A = 1874.635622 ≈ $1874.64
Now we will calculate the value of second coin.
A = 670 × 2.571841
A = $1723.13
The difference of the value after 15 years = 1874.64 - 1723.13 = $151.51
The value of first coin will be $151.51 more than second coin in 15 years.
