Let's see what to do...

_________________________________

Step (1)

Look : 16 , 10 , 4 , ...

It is an arithmetic sequence.

So first we have to find the value of the ratio(( d )) .

To do this, we need to subtract each sentence minus the previous sentence.

So we have : 10 - 16 = - 6

_________________________________

Step (2)

To find the nth sentence in an arithmetic sequence, we must use the following equation :

t(n) = t(1) + (n - 1)d

_________________________________

Step (3)

To find the 6th term just need to put the following parameters in the above sequence.

t(1) = 16 ------ n = 6 ------ d = -6

t(6) = 16 + (6 - 1)( - 6)

t(6) = 16 + (5)( - 6)

t(6) = 16 + ( - 30)

t(6) = 16 - 30

t(6) =  - 14

_________________________________

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.

2b + y = 15 is this an expression?

No, it's not.

The answer appears incorrect, please help me correct it :)
UNO [17]

Every line on the graph is 1/2 unit.

When y = 0, x would be -0.25 and 1.25

When y = 2, x would be -0.5 and 1.5
