Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the first 3 terms substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the n th term rule
= (3 × 1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5
= (3 × 2) + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8
= (3 × 3) + 2 = 9 + 2 = 11
------------------------------------------------------------------
substitute n = 10 into the n th term rule
= (3 × 10) + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32
A=(7,3) b=(7,-2) c=(1,-2)
8x + 7y = 39
4x - 14y = -68
(multiply each term in second equation by -2)
8x + 7y = 39
-8x + 28y = 136
(add both equations)
35y = 175
(divide both sides by 35)
y = 5
(substitute value of y in one of the equations)
8x + 7(5) = 39
8x + 35 = 39
8x = 4
x = 1/2
(x, y) = (1/2, 5)
