Divide the first equation by 2 and add the result to the second equation. This will eliminate x.

... (-4x -2y)/2 + (2x +4y) = (-12)/2 +(-12)

... 3y = -18 . . . . . collect terms

... y = -6 . . . . . . . divide by 3

Substitute this into either equation to find x. Let's use the second equation, where the coefficient of x is positive.

... 2x +4(-6) = -12

... 2x = 12 . . . . . . . . add 24

... x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The solution is (x, y) = (6, -6).

the initial term of arithmetic sequence is 5. The eleventh term is 125. what is the common difference of the arithmetic sequence
kap26 [50]
An arithmetic sequence starts with one number and you add the common difference to the previous term to get the current term
So...
f(x)=mx+b
m=common difference
b=starting point
f(11)=125=11m+b
-
f(1)=5=1m+b
--------
120=10m
Divide both sides by 10
12=m
Your common difference is 12.
