The second step is wrong. What should've been done is to find greatest common factor (gcf) of 1/6 and -2. This is because you cannont add together a number with a variable to a number without a variable. So get the variable by itself by subtracting 1/6 from both sides.
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
Turn -2 into a fraction and find the gcf of -2 and 6:
1/5x + 1/6 = -2
___— 1/6_— 1/6
____________
1/5x = -2/1 — 1/6 ——> 1/5x = -12/6 — 1/6
1/5x = -13/6
Then divide each side by 1/5 to get the variable by itself; remeber: when dividing a fraction by a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal.
5/1 • 1/5x = -13/6 • 5/1
x = 65/6
Then, simplify
65/6} 10.83 or 10 83/100
Ok so first what you gotta do is carry the 1 to the 7 which makes 8 minus 1 is 7 so your answer is D
The second term of the given sequence aₙ = -5(n² + 1n) when solved gives us; a₂ = -20
<h3>How to find the nth term of a sequence?</h3>
We are given the formula for a sequence as;
aₙ = -5(n² + 1n)
Where n is the position of the term.
Now, for the first term, we will have;
a₁ = -5(1² + 1(1))
a₁ = -10
The second term of the sequence is;
a₂ = -5(2² + 1(2))
a₂ = -20
