Given from the question
arithmetic sequence
a₁ = 2
a₂ = -2
a₃ = -6
and so on..

First, find the difference of the sequence
d = a₂ - a₁
d = -2 - 2
d = -4

Second, built the formula
General formula
an = a₁ + d(n - 1)

plug the numbers to the general formula
an = a₁ + d(n - 1)
an = 2 -4(n - 1)
an = 2 - 4n + 4
an = 2 + 4 - 4n
an = 6 - 4n

The answer is option B

-6x-7=3x+11 how to solve this problem
Shalnov [3]
You have to get the x to one side so you'll subtract 3x from -6x and 3x from 3x, the 3x will cancel out and -6x - 3x is -9x-7=11, you have to add 7 from both sides the 7+7 cancels out  and also add 11+7 which leaves -9x=18, you have to divide -9x/-9 and do 18/-9, which gets you x=-2. Here's the work shown if you didn't what i said...
-6x-7=3x+11
-3x    -3x
-9x-7=11
    +7  +7
-9x=18
-9   -9
x=-2

A pound is a(lager, smaller) unit than an ounce, so (divide, multiply) the number of pounds by 16 to find the number of ounces.
worty [1.4K]

Part A:

(larger)

(multiply)

(32)

Part B:

you didnt give any context. But to turn pounds into ounces multiply it the pounds by 16 (2lbs. × 16 = 32oz.)

and once you have the total number of ounces divide it by how many ounces her mom drinks in a day (ex. 32÷4= 9) and if that number is larger than 7 then yes, theres enough coffee
