15 = 5 + 8d - 12
15 = 8d - 7
15 + 7 = 8d
22 = 8d
d = 2.75
The formula for arithmetic sequence is given by:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
an=nth term
a=first term
n=number of terms
thus our first term will be:
a1=8
a2=8+(2-1)(-6)=2
a3=8+(3-1)(-6)=-4
a4=8+(4-1)(-6)=-10
a5=8+(5-1)(-6)=-16
a5=-16
thus the sequence will be:
8,2,-4,-10,-16...
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they are not parallel nor the same line, they have 1 intersecting point, which is the solution.
If they were parallel, they would have no solution.
If they were the same line, they would have infinite solutions.
In mathematics, two varying quantities are said to be in a relation of proportionality, if they are multiplicatively connected to a constant; that is, when either their ratio or their product yields a constant. The value of this constant is called the coefficient of proportionality or proportionality constant.
