Answer:
(a) -7 , - 9 , - 11
(b) Arithmetic sequence
(c) There is a common difference of -2
(d) -53
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) To find the next three terms , we must firs check if it is arithmetic sequence or a geometric sequence . For it to be an arithmetic sequence , there must be a common difference :
check :
-3 - (-1) = -5 - (-3) = -7 - (-5) = -2
This means that there is a common difference of -2 , which means it is an arithmetic sequence.
The next 3 terms we are to find are: 5th term , 6th term and 7th term.
= a + 4d
= - 1 + 4 ( -2 )
= -1 - 8
= - 9
6th term = a +5d
= -1 + 5(-2)
= -1 - 10
= - 11
= a + 6d
= -1 + 6 (-2)
= -1 - 12
= -13
Therefore : the next 3 terms are : -9 , -11 , - 13
(b) it is an arithmetic sequence because there is a common difference which is -2
(c) Because of the existence of common difference
(d)
= a + 26d
= -1 + 26 ( -2 )
= -1 - 52
= - 53
X + 3y = 7
x = -3y + 7
2x + 4y = 8
2(-3y + 7) + 4y = 8
-6y + 14 + 4y = 8
-2y = 8 - 14
-2y = - 6
y = -6/-2
y = 3
x + 3y = 7
x + 3(3) = 7
x + 9 = 7
x = 7 - 9
x = -2
solution is (-2,3)
The answer is 98-40 square root 6
Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Finding x for which 3b = 5a:
- 3(4x - 7) = 5(2x + 3)
- 12x - 21 = 10x + 15
- 12x - 10x = 15 + 21
- 2x = 36
- x = 36/2
- x = 18
