This is an arith. sequence, and the common difference is -9.
a(n+1) = a(n)-9, with a(1)=8. Thus, if we look at the first term, we see 8; subracting 9 from 8 produces the second term (-1).
Answer:
11) 0.6
12) The maximum height of the ball was 2[ seconds] after it was thrown (I am assuming because the answers are cut off a bit.)
13) $2.50
14) (2,-15)
15) I don't know, since I can't see all the graphs and options. But I want to say the sideways parabola, or the only one shown in the image given
4(4x + 5)
4(4•7+5)
4(28+5)
4(33)

Answer: a ticket to the movie costs $8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of a movie ticket.
Let y represent the cost of a Soda.
Janice bought 3 movie tickets and 3 sodas and the total cost was $35.25. This means that
3x + 3y = 35.25 - - - - - - - - - -1
A ticket to the movie cost $5.25 more than a soda. This means that
x = y + 5.25
Substituting x = y + 25 into equation 1, it becomes
3(y + 5.25) + 3y = 35.25
3y + 15.75 + 3y = 35.25
6y = 35.25 - 15.75 = 19.5
y = 19.5/6 = 3.25
x = y + 5.25 = 3.25 + 5.25
x = 8.5
