Answer:
(x+5)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Our value, x, is being increased by 5, so we just add 5. Then it is split 3 ways, so we just divide x+5 by 3 to get (x+5)/3
Hope this helps
A1 = 3 and an = an − 1 − 3
a1 = 2 and an = an − 1 + 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 2 main approaches (in their core they are the same, of course, but they look different) :
1. use one equation to express one variable by the second, and then use this in the second equation to solve for the remaining variable. with that you go back into the first equation and solve for the first variable.
2. multiply both equations by certain factors as needed, then add both results, so that there is one summary equation with only one variable, and then solve for it. then use that in one of the original equations and solve for the second variable.
using 1.
3x + 2y = 1
3x = 1 - 2y
x = (1 - 2y)/3
2x + 7y = 3
2(1 - 2y)/3 + 7y = 3
2(1 - 2y) + 21y = 9
2 - 4y + 21y = 9
17y = 7
y = 7/17
x = (1 - 2y)/3 = (1 - 2×7/17)/3 = (1 - 14/17)/3 =
= (17/17 - 14/17)/3 = 3/17 / 3 = 1/17
using 2.
multiply first equation by 2, the second by -3
6x + 4y = 2
-6x - 21y = -9
----------------------
0 -17y = -7
-17y = -7
17y = 7
y = 7/17
and so on (as under 1.).
Answer:52
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
one-fifth of the plants in a garden are grape tomato plant
two-ninth of the plants in the garden are cherry tomato plants
Also there are 18 grape tomato and 20 cherry tomato plants.
Let Total plants be x
Then Grape tomato plants 
x=90
thus there are total of 90 plants
also grape tomato+cherry tomato=18+20=38
Thus there are 90-38=52 remaining plants.
While we can't really graph it for you, this line has the equation y=-5x+7. We're given that (0, 7) is on the line, and another point on it is (2, -3). To graph the line, mark these two points on your graph, connect them with a segment, and extend this segment past both points.
