Answer:
The common difference is -5/4
T(n) = T(0) - 5n/4,
where T(0) can be any number. d = -5/4
Assuming T(0) = 0, then first term
T(1) = 0 -5/4 = -5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
T(n) = T(0) + n*d
Let
S1 = T(x) + T(x+1) + T(x+2) + T(x+3) = 4*T(0) + (x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3)d = 240
S2 = T(x+4) + T(x+5) + T(x+6) + T(x+7) = 4*T(0) + (x+5 + x+6 + x+7 + x+8)d = 220
S2 - S1
= 4*T(0) + (x+5 + x+6 + x+7 + x+8)d - (4*T(0) + (x+1 + x+2 + x+3 + x+4)d)
= (5+6+7+8 - 1 -2-3-4)d
= 4(4)d
= 16d
Since S2=220, S1 = 240
220-240 = 16d
d = -20/16 = -5/4
Since T(0) has not been defined, it could be any number.
Answer:
5x - 2y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x - (-7x) = -2x + 7x = 5x
y - 3y = -2y
0 - 2 = -2
X= -2 because I love school soooo much
Answer:
176 words
Step-by-step explanation:
1) well we want to find the amount of words we'd be able to type in 4 minutes. so, what i did was:
<u>44 words</u> = <u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u>
1 minutes = 4 minutes
2) now look at how i set up the proportion, notice how i left a variable of x for the value i didn't know.
3) we also know that 1 times 4 is 4, so it'd also make sense to also multiply the numerator by 4 too!!
4) multiplying 44 by 4 would get us our answer which is 176
im not the best at math but i this explanation helped <33
