Hi there! The answer is -2.
We can find the slope of a formula by using the following formula:
x2 and y2 don't mean squared, but the x and y coordinate of our second point.
First we need to find two points on the line. Ijn this particular case we have (-3, 3) and (1, -5). Now we can fill in the formula.
Therefore, the third answer is correct.
~ Hope this helps you!
The answer is 18
You divide 12 buy -2/3
Y=4/3 because if 3 goes to rhs is becomes divided by the number on the rhs so answer is 4/3
Answer:
a₁ = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
Given AP, where:
=============
<h3>Solution</h3>
aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d
- a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
- a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22
8a₈ = 12a₁₂
- 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
- 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
- 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
- 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
- a₁ = 38
