Answer:
Bill suffered a loss of 42.85%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Bill bought a home for $210000 and sold it for $120000 and we have to calculate the percentage loss he suffered.
As we know loss suffered = Difference of sale price and cost price of the home.
Total loss = 210000-120000 = $90000
Now percentage loss = 
= 9/21×100 = 3×100/7 = 42.85%
So the answer is 42.85% loss.

Answer:
an= a1 +(n-1)*4
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = 1, a2 =5, a3 = 9, a4= 13,... an= ?
we see that each term is getting bigger so usually that will happen because of addition or multiplication-in our case add 4 to previous term
a1 = 1,
a2 = a1+(2-1) 4 = 1+4 = 5,
a3 = a1 + (3-1)*4 = a1+8 = 1 + 8 = 9,
a4= a1 + (4-1)*4 = a1 + 12 = 1+12= 13,
...
an= a1 +(n-1)*4
5x+ 10= -4x -17
⇒ 5x+ 4x= -17 -10
⇒ 9x= -27
⇒ x= -27/9
⇒ x= -3
Final answer: x=-3~
