13) If T(n) = 2n-7, what is the 5th term?
n is the number of the term you are looking for. In this instance, n is equal to 5.
T(5) = 2(5) - 7
T(5) = 10 -7
T(5) = 3
The 5th term is 3.
17) inequality based on the line number.
Since the line does not extend in any direction outward. It means that the range should be within -3 and 3.
Solid circle means that -3 is equivalent to x
hollow ciccle means that 3 is not x.
-3 <u><</u> x < 3
x = any number from -3 upto 2.

Answer:
23 marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of children = 10
Number of marbles = 180
Since Betsy gets the most and no 2 children gets the same number of marbles
The least number of marbles Betsy could get will be x ; with the other 9 children receiving 1 less each
That is :
Betsy = x
9th child = x - 1
8th child = x - 2,... 1st child = x - 9
Hence,
(x + x - 1 + x - 2 + x - 3 + x - 4 + x - 5 + x - 6 + x - 7 + x - 8 + x - 9) = 180
10x - 45 = 180
10x = 180 + 45
x = 225 / 10
x = 22.5
x = 23
Hence, the least Betsy could get is 23 marbles
Answer:
about 520,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Following directions, we evaluate the equation by putting the value where the variable is and doing the arithmetic.
__
The value of x will be the number of days between May 26 and May 12. That value is ...
x = 26 -12 = 14
Then the number of mosquitos is estimated to be ...
y = 230,000(1.06^14) ≈ 520,008
About 520,000 mosquitos will inhabit the city on May 26.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Typically, an "estimate" is one or two significant figures. So, 520,000 is a reasonable estimate. 520,008 has more precsision than can be justified.
