2a+b=-7
5a+b=-13
b=-2a-7
5a-2a-7=-13
3a=-6
a=-2=first number
2(-2)+b=-7
-4+b+-7
b=-3=second
The formula for arithmetic sequence is given by:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
an=nth term
a=first term
n=number of terms
thus our first term will be:
a1=8
a2=8+(2-1)(-6)=2
a3=8+(3-1)(-6)=-4
a4=8+(4-1)(-6)=-10
a5=8+(5-1)(-6)=-16
a5=-16
thus the sequence will be:
8,2,-4,-10,-16...

Answer:
inequality form: x
-2 or x > 3
interval notation form: (-∞,-2] ∪ (3,∞)
Step-by-step explanation:
I attached a picture that shows all the work. You begin by isolating then solving for x on both sides. Then form a solution using the information found out about x. For example, you can combine the found inequalities for x to solve that x must be GREATER than 3 while being LESS than -2. Using that you can form an line and make a line. Remember, when writing in interval notation form you always begin from the left to the right (in reference) to the number line.
