The answer:  " k = -10 " .
__________________________________________
Given:  (- 6/5) k = 12  ;  Solve for:  "k" ;
__________________________________________

Multiply each side of the equation by "5" ; to get rid of the "fraction":

   5* (-6/5) k = 12 * 5 ;

to get:

        - 6 k = 60 ;

Divide each side of the equation by "-6" ;
________________________________________
       - 6 k / 6  = 60 / 6 ;

to get:

               -1 k = 10 ;
_______________________
Divide each side of the equation by  "-1" ;
 to isolate "k" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "k" ;
________________________
              - 1 k / -1  =  10 / -1 ;
________________________
                to get:  k = -10 .

An arithmetic sequence with a third term of 8 and a constant difference of 5.
larisa [96]
An arithmetic sequence (a_n) is as follows:

a_1\\a_2=a_1+d\\a_3= a_1+2d\\a_4=a_1+3d,... where a_1 is the first term and d is the constant difference, 

thus, we see that the n'th term of an arithmetic sequence is a_n=a_1+(n-1)d


in our particular case d=5, the third term is 8, so we have:

a_3=8=a_1+2\cdot5\\\\8=a_1+10\\\\a_1=-2


and the general term is a_n=-2+5(n-1),


Answer: first term is -2, n'th term is -2+5(n-1)

Jim spent $46.16 on some mulch and one shovel. Each bag of mulch costs $3.49 and the shovel cost $14.75. How many bags of mulch
mezya [45]
To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation:
46.16-14.75=3.49x
To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100
4616-1475=349x
3141=349x
x=9
