Answer:
-2 - 5n
Step-by-step explanation:
-7, -12, -17, -22, -27.....
Arithmetic Sequence
first term a = -7
difference = d = -12 - (-7) = -12 + 7 = (-5)
nth term = a + (n-1)d
= -7 + (n-1)*(-5)
= -7 + (-5)*n -1 * (-5)
= -7 - 5n + 5
= -2 - 5n
By replacing you get:
5*7-2*11+3*(-1) = 35-22-3= 10
so the answer is 10.

Amy: x skirts
Betty: 2x skirts
Carol: (2x) + 7 skirts
If Amy has 18 less than Carol, than Carol's equation minus 18 equals Amy's equation:
[(2x) + 7] - 18 = x
+18 +18
(2x) + 7 = x + 18
- 7 -7
2x = x + 11
-x -x
x = 11
Input the solution for x into the girls equation to double check.
Amy: 11
Betty: 2(x)
2(11)
=22
Carol: (2x) + 7
22 + 7
=29
Does Amy have 18 less than Carol?
Carol - Amy = 18
29 - 11 = 18
18 = 18
the problem is solved
Answer:
10 strawberries
Step-by-step explanation:
If Mike can pick 50 strawberries in 5 minutes then it is safe to assume that for 1 minute, Mike can pick 10 strawberries since you divide 50 by 5 in which Mike can pick a strawberry for every 6 seconds.
That would be the average of total time paddled upstream & downstream . . . 12 miles / 7 hours = approx 1.71 miles per hr
