A - 1.2b = - 3         ⇒ eq. 1
0.2b + 0.6a = 12   ⇒ eq. 2

a - 1.2b = - 3  
a = 1.2b - 3           ⇒ eq. 3

Substitute eq. 3 to eq. 2
0.2b + 0.6(1.2b - 3) = 12
0.2b + .72b - 1.8 = 12
Combine like terms
0.92b = 12 + 1.8
0.92b = 13.8   ⇒ divide both sides by 0.92 to get the value of b
<span>b = 15

</span>Substitute the value of b to eq. 3
a = 1.2b - 3
a = 1.2(15) - 3 
<span>a = 15

</span>to check: substitute the values of a and b to:
eq. 1
a - 1.2b = - 3 
15 - (1.2)(15) = -3 
15 - 18 = - 3 
- 3 = -3    ⇒ correct!

eq. 2 
0.2b + 0.6a = 12 
(0.2)(15) + (0.6)(15) = 12
3 + 9 = 12
12 = 12   ⇒ correct!

Construct an explicit rule in function notation for the arithmetic sequence represented in the table. Then determine the value o
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

After 11 weeks, Darnell′s savings account will have a total of $8,360.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided is as follows:

   n:    1        2       3        4

f (n): 260   360   460   560  

Consider the data for f (n).

The series f (n) follows an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 100 and first term as 260.

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:

a_{n}=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]

Compute the value of f (11) as follows:

f(11)=\frac{11}{2}[(2\times260)+(11-1)\times 100]

        =5.5\times[520+1000]\\\\=5.5\times 1520\\\\=8360

Thus, after 11 weeks, Darnell′s savings account will have a total of $8,360.
