<u>We are given the equation:</u>
(a + b)! = a! + b!
<u>Testing the given equation</u>
In order to test it, we will let: a = 2 and b = 3
So, we can rewrite the equation as:
(2+3)! = 2! + 3!
5! = 2! + 3!
<em>We know that (5! = 120) , (2! = 2) and (3! = 6):</em>
120 = 2 + 6
We can see that LHS ≠ RHS,
So, we can say that the given equation is incorrect
<span>This one is the correct answer----->Multiply the bottom equation by 2 thus eliminating the y variable when the equations are added together.
</span><span>X + 6y = 2 ....top
</span><span>4x - 3y = 10...bottom
if we multiply the bottom equation by 2 .......... => 8x - 6y = 20
if we add it to the top one..........>(8+1)x +(6-6)y = (20+2)
then we solve for x => x = 22/9
then with the top equation, we solve for y == > y = -2/27</span>
Answer:
The answer is 22 1/2-18 3/7. first we need to get a common denominator for the fractions. I will do 14. Now we have 22 7/14-18 6/14=4 1/14 ez
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-5n + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1. What is the difference?</u>
The sequence goes down by 5. This means that the formula will have -5n in it.
<u>2. Work out the term before the first term.</u>
The first term is 3, and we know that the sequence goes up by 5. So, to get the term before 3 we would add 5.
3 + 5 = 8 Remember, this is positive 8. (+8)
<u>3. Put that term at the end of the equation. </u>
We have -5n already and we just worked out the term before the first one which is positive 8 - so put that at the end of the equation.
-5n + 8 This is our answer!
Just to prove it works:
<em>Substitute: n = term</em>
Lets see if we can get the 3rd term which is -7. (n = 3)
-5(3) + 8
-15 + 8 = -7
See, it works!
The odds are one in three hundred twelve.
