First, you have to see the behavior of the series: it has a negative number, then a positive number with a 5 addd (7+5=12), and this is repeated with the others values. Each termn has a 5 added. In this case, as there is negatives values alternated, the serie will have the termn (-1)^n. Then, we have:
 
 a(n)=(-1)^n[ a + (n-1)d ]
 a(n)=(-1)^n[ (7) + (n-1)(5) ]
 a(n)=(-1)^n( 5n + 2 )
 
 A possible expression for the serie <span>–7 + 12 –17 +22 –27, is:

 ∑5n=(−1)^n(2+5n)

If a line crosses the y-axis at (0,1) and has a slope of 4/5, what is the equation of the line ?
stepladder [879]
The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).  We are given that the slope is 4/5 and the point (0,1) so we know m=4/5 and b=1 so:

y=4x/5+1  now to rearrange into standard form ax+by=c

y=(4x+5)/5

5y=4x+5

5y-4x=5

So the answer is D.

However, by convention, in standard form, the equation is usually expressed with a positive coefficient for x.

5y-4x=5 SHOULD be expresses so the x has a positive coefficient, divide both sides by -1 and you have the technically correct form:

4x-5y=-5

Apparently whomever/whatever posed this question to you was unaware of this convention :P
