The value of a₃₁ of the arithmetic sequence exists 77.4.

<h3>How to find the value of a₃₁ of the arithmetic sequence?</h3>

Given: a₅ = 12.4 and a₉ = : 22.4

For the arithmetic sequence a₁, a₂, a₃, ..., the n-th term exists

where d = common difference

a₅ = 12.4,

a₁ + 4d = 12.4 .........(1)

Because a₉ = 22.4,

a₁ + 8d = 22.4 .........(2)

Subtract (1) from (2), we get

a₁ + 8d - (a₁ + 4d) = 22.4 - 12.4

4d = 10

Dividing throughout by 4, we get

d = 2.5

From (1), we get

a₁ = 12.4 - 4 $*$ 2.5 = 2.4

a₃₁ = 2.4 + 30 $*$ 2.5 = 77.4

Therefore, the correct answer is a₃₁ = 77.4

What is the solution to the equation ?

Savatey [412]

Answer:

There is no solution of the system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two equations y = - 4 and y = 4 and are to find the solution to the equations.

Now, the straight line y = - 4 is parallel to the x-axis as the equation of straight lines that are parallel to the x-axis are given by y = c, where c is any constant value.

Again, the straight line y = 4 is parallel to the x-axis.

Therefore, y = - 4 and y = 4 two lines are parallel to each other and we know, parallel lines never intersect and hence there is no solution of the system of equations. (Answer)
