Answer:
f(x) = 8 - 1.5x
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to write a function that can be used to describe the x th term of the sequence
Mathematically, this can be calculated by looking at the numbers in the sequence
The difference between each successive term
is -1.5 ( 6.5-8, 3.5 -5)
So the formula for then x th term will be;
f(x) = 8 - 1.5x
where x refers to the number of the term , for example the 4th term
Answer: factors of 10 are 1, 2, 5, and 10.
Step-by-step explanation: You can also look at this the other way around: if you can multiply two whole numbers to create a third number, those two numbers are factors of the third. 2 x 5 = 10, so 2 and 5 are factors of 10.
The answer is 270 , I multiplied 15 by 18 and got 270
Answer: x = 0 y = –3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this system by substitution.
use the second equation as a value for x.
Then substitute that value in place of x in the first equation and solve for y.
6x - 5y = 15 becomes
6(y + 3) - 5y = 15 Distribute 6 × parentheses
6y + 18 - 5y = 15 combine like terms
6y -5y + 18 = 15
y + 18 = 15 Subtract 18 from both sides.
y =15 -18
y = –3
Use this value for y in either equation to solve for x
6x - 5(-3) = 15
6x + 15 = 15 Subtract 15 from both sides, divide by 6 (seems silly!)
x = 0
OR in he second equation,
x = -3 + 3
Again, x = 0
