Answer:
-10, -33, -125, -493, -1965
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 is -10, meaning the first term is -10. therefore the first term of the sequence has to be -10
4x -3y + z = -10...............(1)
2x +y + 3z = 0...............(2)
-x +2y - 5z = 17...............(3)
First we multiply 3*(2) and add it to (1)
6x +3y +9z =0..................+(1)..................> 10x + 10z = -10......(4)
Then we multiply -2*(2) and add it to (3)
-4x -2y -6z =0 ...................+(3)................> -5x -11z = 17...........(5)
Multiply 2*(5) and add it to (4)
-10x -22z = 34...................+(4).................> -12 z = 24 ..............>>> z = -2
Substitute z in (4)............> 10x +10(-2) = -10.............................>>> x = 1
Substitute x and z in (2).....> 2(1) +y + 3(-2) = 0..................>>> y = 4
Solution (x,y,z) = (1,4,-2)
First factor out the 2:
x^2 - y^2 = 36
x^2 - y^2 can be factored into (x+y)(y-y) so:
(x + y)(x - y) = 36
plug in your value:
18 (x-y) = 36 and you should be able to take it from there
Answer:

.
Step-by-step explanation:
-7x - 4y = -4 (times 5) -35x - 20y = -20
-9x - 5y = -6 (times 4) -36x - 20y = -24
.
Eliminate both equations

<u>-36x - 20y = -24 </u> <u> </u>

.
Substitute the value of x to one of equations
