Answer:
1.-6
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know how to do the second one but
BD = DC
x+8 = 3x+2
2x=-4
x=-2
-6+12
-6
To find the 20th term in this sequence, we can simply keep on adding the common difference all the way until we get up to the 20th term.
The common difference is the number that we are adding or subtracting to reach the next term in the sequence.
Notice that the difference between 15 and 12 is 3.
In other words, 12 + 3 = 15.
That 3 that we are adding is our common difference.
So we know that our first term is 12.
Now we can continue the sequence.
12 ⇒ <em>1st term</em>
15 ⇒ <em>2nd term</em>
18 ⇒ <em>3rd term</em>
21 ⇒ <em>4th term</em>
24 ⇒ <em>5th term</em>
27 ⇒ <em>6th term</em>
30 ⇒ <em>7th term</em>
33 ⇒ <em>8th term</em>
36 ⇒ <em>9th term</em>
39 ⇒ <em>10th term</em>
42 ⇒ <em>11th term</em>
45 ⇒ <em>12th term</em>
48 ⇒ <em>13th term</em>
51 ⇒ <em>14th term</em>
54 ⇒ <em>15th term</em>
57 ⇒ <em>16th term</em>
60 ⇒ <em>17th term</em>
63 ⇒ <em>18th term</em>
66 ⇒ <em>19th term</em>
<u>69 ⇒ </u><u><em>20th term</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
This means that the 20th term of this arithemtic sequence is 69.
To find out how many students voted, you just add the 2 numbers up and you'll get 98. So 98 students voted.
Answer:
(a) x = 3
(b) y = 6
(c) false/not true
(d) x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(A) 2 + x = 5 You would subtract the 2 from both sides which gives you x = 3
(B) 8y = 48 You would divide 8 from both sides which is 6 so y = 6
(C) 23 = 26 That is not true because 23 does not equal 26
(D) -7x - 3x + 2 = -8x - 8 First simplify the equation; -10x + 2 = -8x - 8. Next, you want to subtract 2 from both sides which gives us -10x = -8x - 10. Now you want to add 8x to both sides which is -2x = -10. And now you just divide -2 on both sides which gives us the answer 5. So, x = 5. I hope this helps. Let me know if one of the answers are incorrect.
