Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
use substitution and solve this 8x+4(-2x+3)=12
with the 4 distributed its
8x-8x+12=12
then you can cancel out the 8x and -8x and switch the 12 over into a -12 canceling out the 12s making it x=0
Answer:
first term a=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of the first 6 terms S6 = 15624
common ratio r= 5
n= 6
first term a=?
Formula: S6= a(r^n-1)/r-1
15624 = a( 5^6-1)/5-1
15624 = a(15625-1)/4
15624= a( 15624)÷4
15624= 15624a÷4
Cross multiply
15624×4 = 15624a
62496 = 15624a
divide both sides by 15624
62496÷15624 = 15624a÷15624
4 = a
a= 4
