First term is -7, so a_1 = -7
To get the next term, we add on 4. We can see this if we subtract like so
d = (2nd term) - (1st term) = (-3) - (-7) = -3+7 = 4
So d = 4 is the common difference.
Apply a_1 = -7 and d = 4 to get...
a_n = a_1 + d*(n-1)
a_n = -7 + 4*(n-1)
a_n = -7 + (n-1)*4
Answer: Choice A
3,000+4,000+1
Three hundred four thousand, one
Part A: This data does represent a function because no value of x is repeated.
Part B: If x = 6 for the relation f(x) = 7x - 15, then f(x) will equal 27. The function f(x) = 7x - 15 will have the greater value
Part C: If f(x) is equal to 6 then x will equal 3
Answer:
The dog weighs 16 pounds, while the cat weighs 8 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the weight of the dog d, and the weight of the cat c.
d+c=24
d=2c
Substitute the second equation into the first:
(2c)+c=24
3c=24
c=8
d=24-8=16
Hope this helps!
