Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the terms of an arithmetic sequence with n th term

a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term and d the common difference

d = 25 - 20 = 30 - 25 = 5 and a = 20, hence

a_{n} = 20 + 5(n - 1) = 20 + 5n - 5 = 5n + 15 ← n th term formula

Answer:

B and C work. A and D do not.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of those questions that you have to go through each answer to see what the results are. You don't have to go far to eliminate A and D so let's do that first.

A]

5n + 6

Let n = 1

5(1) + 6

5 + 6= 11

However there is trouble beginning with n = 2

5*2 + 6

10 + 6

16     All you need is one wrong answer and the choice is toast. So A won't work.

================

Try D

6(n - 1)+ 5

n=0

6*(-1) + 5

-6 + 5

- 1

And D has been eliminated with just 1 attempt. n= 2 or n = 1 would be even worse.  D is not one of the answers.

=============

B

Let n = 1

6(1) + 5

6 + 5

11 The first term works.

n = 2

6*(2) + 5

12 + 5

17 and n = 2 works as well. Just in case it is hard to believe, let's try n = 3 because so far, everything is fine.

n = 3

6*(3) + 5

18 + 5

23 And this also works. I'll let you deal with n = 4

========

C

n = 0

6(0 + 1) + 5

6*1 + 5

6 + 5

11

n = 1

6(1 + 1) + 5

6*2 + 5

12 + 5

17 which works.

So C is an answer.

Answer: Parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Set your -2x+10y=5 equation equal to y

-2x+10y=5

<u>      -10y -10y</u>

-2x=5-10y

<u>-5      -5       </u>

<u>-2x-5</u>+<u>-10y</u>

-10 -10 -10

-1/5x-1/2=y

Now you can put your equations into your graphing calculator and examine the lines made

(if you dont have one search up <em>online graphing calculator</em> on google or your app store)

If you earn $1200 per month and you expect your earnings to increase by 10% per year, what monthly salary would you be making in
Sergio [31]
So u turn the percent into a decimal.
0.10 
Now multiply 1200 * 0.10
1200*0.10= 120 ( 120 is the amount that is gonna increase)
So if it says 5 years, than your gonna multiply 120 * 5 
120*5 =600
So your gonna add 600 to 1200.
So in five years your gonna be making 1,800.
An easier way would be to use prt
Principle * rate * time
1200 * 0.10* 5
= 600
So now you just add 600 to 1200
= 1800
