Answer:

y+3x+23=0

Step-by-step explanation:

From y = x/3 + 6 comparing with general equation of a line, y = mx +c

m1 = 1/3

Perpendicularity rule states that m1m2 = -1

m2 = -1/1/3 = -1 * 3/1 = -3

The equation is

y-y1 = m2(x-x1)

y-(-2) = -3(x-(-7))

y+2 = -3(x+7)

y+2 = -3x-21

y = -3x-21-2

y= -3x-23

y+3x = -23

y+3x+23=0

Solve the system by substitution: <br> 3x + 2y = 26<br> Y=x + 3
Orlov [11]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 26

y = x + 3

Plug in the equation for y

3x + 2(x + 3) = 26

Multiply the 2 with what is in the parantheses

3x + 2x + 6 = 26

Combine like terms and solve for x

5x + 6 = 26

5x = 20

x = 4

Determine if the following sequence is an Arithmetic Sequence. If it is, what would be the 31st term? NOTE: an=a1+(n-1)d
Ivan
<h3>Key points :-</h3>

᪥ The formula to find the 31st term is : \sf \: a_{n} =  a_{1} + (n - 1) \times d

᪥ In the formula, \sf \: a_{1} represents the first term of the sequence.

᪥ \sf\:n is the number of terms, In our case n is 31.

᪥ \sf\:d is the common difference between the terms, In our case d is 4.
