Answer: -7</h3>
Explanation:
Pick any term. Subtract off the previous one to find the common difference.
- term2 - term1 = 6-13 = -7
- term3 - term2 = -1-6 = -7
- term4 - term3 = -8-(-1) = -8+1 = -7
And so on. You only need to pick one of those to show as your steps to your teacher. However, doing all three subtractions is a good way to get practice in seeing how we have an arithmetic sequence. The common difference must be the same each time.
We subtract 7 from each term to get the next term, i.e. we add -7 to each term to get the next one.
Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve these equations graphically, you plot each one, then identify the coordinates of the point of intersection.
The first equation can be graphed using the y-intercept of -1 and the slope of 2.
The second equation has a y-intercept of 18/3 = 6, and a slope of -1/3. The x-intercept of 18 is off the chart, so the slope and intercept are a good way to plot this line, too.
__
The slope is the "rise" divided by the "run". A slope of 2 means the line goes up 2 units for each unit to the right. A slope of -1/3 means the line goes down 1 unit for each 3 units to the right.
The solution is (x, y) = (3, 5).
Answer:
$0.21
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion. Say x is the cost of 1 wristband:

Now, we cross multiply:
25x = 5.25
Solving for x, we see that x = 0.21.
Thus, the answer is $0.21.
