What lists are the easiest to count? If you were given a list like 1, 2, 3, 4, ... , 20, it would be pretty easy to determine that there were 20 terms in the sequence. We can transform most sequences to that form to make our job of counting terms a lot easier.

First, we notice that the terms all seem to be multiples of 7. We can start to simplify our list by <em>dividing</em> each term by 7:

7,21,63,\dots,45927\rightarrow1,3,9,\dots,6561

Looking at our new list, you might notice that our numbers all seem to be <em>powers of 3</em>. 1=3^0,3=3^1,9=3^2, and you can verify that 6561=3^8

We can now transform our list again, replacing each term with its corresponding power:

1,3,9,\dots,6561\rightarrow0,1,2,\dots,8

Now, we simply add 1 to each term and:

0,1,2,\dots,8\rightarrow1,2,3,\dots,9

Voila! There are 9 terms in the sequence.

Solve the equation 3x + 4y = 16 for x.
Neko [114]

Answer:

3x + 4y = 16  The rule is you can do any valid operation on both sides of an equation and it will still be equal. Subtract 4y.

3x = -4y + 16  Divide by 3.

x = -4y/3 + 16/3  Answer B.

Train A leaves Westtown and travels at 50 mph toward Smithville, 330 miles away. At the same time, Train B leaves Smithville and
lianna [129]
The answer to this question is that the trains will meet after 3 hours. We can work this out by considering that is the closing speed of the two trains is (50+60=)110 miles per hour, then this must mean that the combined distance that the trains need to travel before they meet is 330 miles. If the time that is taken to travel 330 miles at 110 miles per hour, then you simply need to divide 330/110 to find your answer - 3 hours.
