Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
In an <u><em>Arithmetic Sequence</em></u> the difference between one term and the next is a constant, and this constant is called the common difference (d)
In this problem we have the ordered pairs
Let

Find the difference between one term and the next
The difference between one term and the next is a constant
This constant is the common difference
so
The sequence graphed is an Arithmetic Sequence
therefore
The first term is
The common difference is equal to
Answer:
Y = [-6 6 6 -6]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given matrices
If X - 2Y = Z
b - 2c = a ... 1
a -2d = c ...2
4+2a = 16.... 3
a + 2b = b .... 4
From3 ;
2a = 16-4
2a = 12
a = 6
From 4;
a + 2b - b = 0
a+b = 0
a = -b
6 = -b
b = -6
From1;
b - 2c = a
-6 - 2c = 6
-2c = 12
c = -6
also
a - 2d = c
6-2d = -6
-2d = -6-6
-2d = -12
d = 6
Hence the matrices Y = [-6 6 6 -6]
I think u do the ones in the parenthesis first bc of PEMDAS since it's both negative it become positive and u can cross out both the 2's and that leaves u with 1/7 and then u just times 1/7 with 8 and then u get 8/7
hoped this helped! :)
