Answer:

172

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 25 and d = 3, thus

$a_{50}$ = 25 + (49 × 3) = 25 + 147 = 172

What is the slope of this line of best fit?

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The slope of the line of best fit is $\frac{-6}{7}$ ⇒ 2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the slope of a line is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

<em>To find the slope of the best line fit choose two points their positions make the number of the points over the line equal to the number of the points below the line</em>

From the attached graph points (1 , 9) and (8 , 3) are the best choice

∵ The line passes through points (1 , 9) and (8 , 3)

∴ $x_{1}$ = 1 and $x_{2}$ = 8

∴ $y_{1}$ = 9 and $y_{2}$ = 3

- Substitute them in the formula of the slope

∴ $m=\frac{3-9}{8-1}=\frac{-6}{7}$

∴ The slope of the line of best fit is $\frac{-6}{7}$

What property does the statement show? (4x8)x3=(8x4)x3

8090 [49]

Why not? Because every math system you've ever worked with has obeyed these properties! You have never dealt with a system where a×b did not in fact equal b×a, for instance, or where (a×b)×c did not equal a×(b×c). Which is why the properties probably seem somewhat pointless to you. Don't worry about their "relevance" for now; just make sure you can keep the properties straight so you can pass the next test. The lesson below explains how I kept track of the properties.

Translate the following into an algebraic expression: the sum of a number and five, added to the difference between the same num

Kruka [31]

Answer:

It simplifies to 2x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x, then the expression is

x + 5 + (x - 3)

= x + 5 + x - 3

= x + x + 5 - 3

= 2x + 2.
