Answer:

x = -15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will simply use equation properties to solve for x.

2x - 5 = -20

2x - 5 + 5 = -20 + 5

2x = -15  ( Add positive 5 to both sides )

2x * (1/2) = -15 * (1/2)

x = -15/2  ( Multiply both sides by 1/2)

Hence, the solution to x is -15 / 2.

Cheers.

Add 5 to both sides so both sides are still equivalent. And then divide each side by 2 to solve for x. That’s how I would explain it

Answer:

5x + 32 < 50

Step-by-step explanation:

On a particular airline, bags checked in must weigh less than 50 pounds. Betty packed 32 pounds of clothes and five gifts that weigh the same amount.

If each gift weighs w pounds, then the weight of five gifts will be 5w pounds and an additional 32 pounds of clothes will make it total (32 + 5w) pounds.  

Now, this total weight has to be less than 50 pounds.

Therefore, the inequality equation that can be used to find the possible weight of each gift, w is  

5x + 32 < 50 (Answer)

Consider a deck of cards:
Ganezh [65]

Ohhhh nasty !  What a delightful little problem !

The first card can be any one of the 52 in the deck.  For each one ...
The second card can be any one of the 39 in the other 3 suits. For each one ...
The third card can be any one of the 26 in the other 2 suits.  For each one ...
The fourth card can be any one of the 13 in the last suit.

Total possible ways to draw them = (52 x 39 x 26 x 13) = 685,464 ways.

But wait !  That's not the answer yet.

Once you have the 4 cards in your hand, you can arrange them
in (4 x 3 x 2 x 1) = 24 different arrangements.  That tells you that
the same hand could have been drawn in 24 different ways.  So
the number of different 4-card hands is only ...

                     (685,464) / (24) = <em>28,561 hands</em>.

I love it !

1. What are the first five terms of the sequence given by the formula an = 5n + 1?
Dvinal [7]

The correct answers are:

(1) 6, 11, 16, 21, 26 (Option B)

(2)~a_1 = 8; ~a_n = a_{n-1} - 2~ (Option A)

(3)~a_n = -2 + 3(n-1)~~~~ (Option D)

Explanations:

(1) Given Sequence:

a_n = 5n + 1

Now in order to find the first 5 terms, we need to put n=1,2,3,4,5 in the above sequence and solve.

For n=1: a_1 = 5(1) + 1 = 6

For n=2: a_2 = 5(2) + 1 = 11

For n=3: a_3 = 5(3) + 1 = 16

For n=4: a_4 = 5(4) + 1 = 21

For n=5: a_5 = 5(5) + 1 = 26

Hence, the first five terms are: 6, 11, 16, 21, 26 (Option B)

(2) Given Sequence:

8, 6, 4, 2, …

Now to find the recursive definition, we need to adopt trial-and-error approach.

As, a_1 = 8 (meaning the first element of the sequence is 8), the second or nth value of the sequence can be found by using the following formula:

a_n = a_{n-1} - d --- (1)

Where, n = the index of the number in a sequence

d = difference between two consecutive numbers = 8-6 = 2

Now,

The second number of the sequence has to be 6 by using (1). Put n = 2 and d = 2 in (1):

a_2 = a_{2-1} - 2

a_2 = a_{1} - 2

Since a_1 = 8, therefore,

a_2 = 8 - 2 = 6 (correct)

Hence the correct answer is a_1 = 8; ~a_n = a_{n-1} - 2~ (Option A)

(3) Given Sequence:

−2, 1, 4, 7, …

To find the explicit definition, use the following formula:

a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*d --- (X)

Where,

a_n = nth~term~of~the~sequence \\a_1 = 1st~term~of~the~sequence = -2 \\d = common~difference = 4-1 = 7-4 = 3 \\n = index~of~a~number~in~a~sequence \\

Plug in the values in (X):

(X)=> a_n = -2 + (n-1)*3~~~~ (Option D)
