J = 14
J = 1/2S + 4 1/2

14 = 1/2S + 9/2....multiply everything by 2 to get rid of fractions
28 = S + 9
28 - 9 = S
19 = S

check...
14 = 1/2S + 9/2......S = 19
14 = 1/2(19) + 9/2
14 = 9 1/2 + 9/2
14 = 19/2+ 9/2
14 = 28/2
14 = 14 (correct)

so the sister is 19 <===

Flour costs $0.80 per pound and sugar costs $0.50 per pound. An order of flour and sugar weighs 15 pounds and costs $9.00. Make
LenaWriter [7]

Answer: x+y=15

0.80x+0.50y=9


Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of flour and y be the amount of sugar ordered.

Since, the order of flour and sugar weighs 15 pounds.

Therefore, x+y=15

Also, Flour costs $0.80 per pound and sugar costs $0.50 per pound.

The cost of ordered flour=$0.80x

The cost of ordered sugar=$0.50y

Now, the total cost of the order= 0.80x+0.50y=9

Hence, for the given situation the system of equations is:-

x+y=15

0.80x+0.50y=9

100th term for 5, 2, -1
andrezito [222]

Answer:

100th term = -1485

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Arithmetic Progressionthe </h3><h3>nth term, Tn:</h3>

t_{n} = a + (n - 1)d

n = number of terms

= 100

a = first term

= 5

d = difference

= second term - first term

= 2 - 5

= -3

substitute the values into the formula

t_{100} = 5(100  - 1)( - 3)

t_{100} = 5(99)( - 3)

t_{100}  = 495( - 3)

t_{100}  =  - 1485
