The answer is y=4/3. Hope this helps.
9x^2 + 18x + 9 = 5
9(x^2 + 2x +1) - 5 = 0
x^2 + 2x - 4 = 0
Then use the quadratic formula.
Given:
3n + 5
n = 1 ; 3(1) + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8
n = 2 ; 3(2) + 5 = 6 + 5 = 11
n = 3 ; 3(3) + 5 = 9 + 5 = 14
n = 4 ; 3(4) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17
The first four terms of the sequence are: 8, 11, 14, 17. Second option.
we have given an equation 
we need to simplify the given equation.
the distributive property is used here 

if we simplify the terms
we get
