An arithmetic sequence is an ordered list of numbers where the next number is found by adding on to the last number (ex: 2,5,8,11... is a sequence where 3 is added on to find the next number).
The equation for an arithmetic sequence is


is the "n-th" number in the sequence (ex: is the first term in the sequence)
d is the number you add (common difference) to find the next number
The first number in the sequence is 47 so

<span>d=-2 because the question gives you that

The answer is C. 158
1. 3n
2. 9x
3. 9wx
4. 5ac^2
5. 8wx^2
6. 4a^2 c
The equations x+5x=16
and x+5x+25=16
No, the equations are not equal. In order for an equation to be equal the equation x+5x=16 contains 25 less than the second equation.
Answer:
n = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the number by n. Then "seven less than twice a number is -5 becomes 2n - 7 = -5
Next we must solve for n. Adding 7 to both sides yields 2n = 2, so that
n = 1
Answer:
90
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of squares of the deviation from mean=sum(x-xbar)²=?
x
12
6
15
9
18
12
xbar=sumx/n
xbar=(12+6+15+9+18+12)/6=72/6=12
x x-xbar (x-xbar)²
12 12-12=0 0
6 6-12=-6 36
15 15-12=3 9
9 9-12=-3 9
18 18-12=6 36
12 12-12=0 0
sum(x-xbar)²=0+36+9+9+36+0=90
So, the sum of squares of the deviations from the mean is 90.
