If an=5n-3 find the common difference​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference d of an arithmetic sequence is

d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ = a_{n} - a_{n-1}

Given

a_{n} = 5n - 3

Generate the first 2 terms of the sequence by substituting n = 1, n = 2

a₁ = 5(1) - 3 = 5 - 3 = 2

a₂ = 5(2) - 3 = 10 - 3 = 7

d = 7 - 2 = 5

Verbalize 2(n^3+3n^2)=4n
Arada [10]

Answer:

A number cubed plus a 3 times a number squared all multiplied by 2 is equal to 4 times a number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we can't say "in parenthesis", we will have to say the expressions in the parenthesis first and then say "all multiplied by 2" to express parenthesis in word form. The rest are pretty straight forward.

3x+5y=-3 x-5y=-5 show your work
frez [133]
We are given the equations 3x+5y=-3 and x-5y=-5.

Both equations have a 5y  term which allows us to easily solve the system by elimination. To do so we will add the equations together like a simple addition problem by adding the x terms together, the y terms together, and the integer answers together.

3x + 5y = -3
+x - 5y = -5
---------------
4x + 0y = -8

The y terms cancel out since one is positive and one is negative. Now we can solve for x.

4x = -8

\frac{4x}{(4)} = \frac{-8}{(4)}

x = -2

Now plug -2 in for x in one of the original equations to find y.

(-2) - 5y = -5

-5y = -3

y = 3/5

Our answer as an ordered pair is (2, 3/5)
