Consecutive terms in an arithmetic sequence differ by a constant d. So

5k-1=2k+d
6k+2=5k-1+d
\implies\begin{cases}3k-d=1\\k-d=-3\end{cases}\implies k=2,d=5

Denote the n-th term in the sequence by a_n. Now that a_1=2, we have

a_n=a_{n-1}+5=a_{n-2}+2\cdot5=\cdots=a_1+(n-1)\cdot5

which means

a_8=2+(8-1)\cdot5=37

Solve the inequality. 3 – 2a < 7
Igoryamba
<span>3 – 2a < 7
Subtract 3 from both sides
-2a<4
Divide both sides so that the only thing remaining on the left side is the variable a.*Note: When you divide a negative number in a inequality, it automatically flips the greater than/less than sign to it's opposite side.
Final Answer: a>-2</span>

How would you write 2x^2-7=11 in both quadratic property and square root property?
dangina [55]

Answer:

Quadratic Property 2x^2-18=0

Square Root Property x=√9 or x=+3 or x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Property or a quadratic Function is of the form ax^2+bx+c=0. So our task is to equate the given expression to zero. We can equate the expression to zero by subtracting 11 on both the sides. In doing so, we get 2x^2-18=0. This is the quadratic Property of the given Expression.

Square property is finding the value for x. we have make x equal to some value. Since we already have the quadratic Property as 2x^2-18=0, we can use this to find the value of x.

so, 2x^2=18

or x^2=18/2=9

or x=√9= +3 or -3.
