Answer: If the initial term of an arithmetic sequence is a 1 and the common difference of successive members is d, then the nth term of the sequence is given by: a n = a 1 + (n - 1)d The sum of the first n terms S n of an arithmetic sequence is calculated by the following formula: S n = n (a 1 + a n)/2 = n [2a 1 + (n - 1)d]/2
this will be the answer
1: x=-4 or x=-3 and the second can be shown clearly
Answer:
The solutions are −5 and 1 .
Answer:
x = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create two equations 1. one that calculates calories burned and 2.another that calculates minutes:
20*x + 5*y = 1200
x + y = 120
Then we can solve for x
x = 120 - y
then we can plug that into the top equation:
20(120 - y) + 5y = 1200
divide by 5:
4(120 - y) + y = 240
distribute:
480 - 4y + y = 240
and then do all that combining like factors what not and simplify and solve:
480 - 3y = 240
-3y = -240
y = 8
NOW WE CAN JUST PLUG IN THE ANSWER FOR Y TO FIND X
8+x =120
x = 112
