Hello from MrBillDoesmath

Answer: multiply each by 1.5 to get the next term.

Discussion: I noticed that 7.5 is 1.5 times 5 -- and 5 is the first number in the sequence. I wondered if that was the pattern so I used Calc to multiply 7.5 by 1.5 and got 11.25. (Looking good). Then I multipled 11.25 by 1.5 and got 16.875.

Regards,

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}10x+2y=64&\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\3x-4y=-36\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}20x+4y=128\\3x-4y=-36\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad23x=92\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad x=4\\\\\text{put the value of x to the first equation:}\\\\10(4)+2y=64\\40+2y=64\qquad\text{subtract 40 from both sides}\\2y=24\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\y=12$
