For the sequence 3n - 1, generate the first three terms.

1 answer:

5 0

3n - 1

When n = 1,

3n - 1 = 3*1 - 1 = 3 -1 = 2

When n = 2,

3n - 1 = 3*2 - 1 = 6 -1 = 5

When n = 3,

3n - 1 = 3*3 - 1 = 9 -1 = 8

Hence, the first three terms are 2, 5 and 8.

How many license plates in Ontario were registered between the following licence plates? As the question is asking for plates be

Liono4ka [1.6K]

The number of plates is an illustration of permutation and combination

The number of plates is 2592

<h3>How to determine the number of plates</h3>

The range is given as: AVVJ 144 To: BVNP 199 (exclusive)

From the range, we have the following highlights:

The first letter can be either A or B (i.e. 2 letters)
The second letter can be only V (i.e. 1 letter)
The third letter can be from W to M (24 letters)
There are 54 numbers between 144 and 199

The number of plates (n) is then calculated as:

$n = 2 * 1 * 24 * 54$

Evaluate the product

$n = 2592$

Hence, the number of plates (n) is 2592

Start at 60
hike down 137 below so new is 60-137=-77m

then go down again 57

2a) Solve using substitution.

Tcecarenko [31]

First things first, write out your equation without the substitution.

2x+ 2y= 10

Now, put in the substitution.

2x+ 2• 2= 10

Combine like terms.

2x+ 4= 10

Now that your equation it simplified, you need to reverse the problem and put everything on the other side.

2x+ 4= 10
- 4 - 4
2x = 6

2x=6
— —
2 2

X= 3

So the final answer is x=3

Solve the system of linear equations and check any solution algebraically

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

It is pretty long, hope you understand
x+y+z=6
+
2x-y+z=3
-------------
3x+2z=9
->3x=9-2z (1)

3x-z=0
3x=z (2)

From (1)+(2)-> z=9-2z
solve for z
-3z=9
z=-3 (3)

plug (3) in (2)
->3x=-3
->x=-1 (4)

Plug (3) and (4) in <span>x+y+z=6
</span>-3+y+(-3)=6
solve for y
y-6=6
->y=12
Answer:
x=-1
y=12
z=-3
