Given parameters:

First term of the sequence = x

Second term = x + 2

Third term =  x + 4

Sum of the first three terms  = 72

Unknown:

First term of the sequence = ?

Solution:

The sum of the first three terms is unknown;

            (x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 72

Solve for x;

          x + x + 2 + x + 4  = 72

          3x + 6  = 72

            3x = 72 - 6

              3x = 66

                x = \frac{66}{3}   = 22

The first term of the sequence is 22

kupik [55]
<span>If i started a business making braclets for $2 and necklaces for $3 with a budget >200 what would be the inequality equation?
How would I graph

Solution:
let x= number of bracelets
    y= number of necklaces

Thus, the equation would be:
</span>$2x+$3y>200

In graphing this equation, you just have to substitute any number for the values of x and y as long as when substituted, their sum is greater than 200
