4 - 3 = 1
1 - 3 = -2
-2 - 3 = -5
-5 - 3 = -8
It's the arithmetic sequence.


substitute

Answer: 
Let r, g and b represent red, green and blue.
r+g+b = 74
r=g-1
b=r+g
Again, r+g+b = 74. Let's substitutte r+g for b: r+g+(r+g) = 74.
Next, let's eliminate r. Use r=g-1. Then g-1 + g + g-1 + g = 74
Combining the g terms, 4g - 2 = 74 => 4g = 76 => g = 19
Recall that r=g-1
and
b=r+g
Find r. If r=g-1, and g=19, then r = 19-1=18
Find b: b = r+g = 18+19=37
So there are 37 blue candies, 18 red candies and 19 green candies.
Check: 37+18+19=74 ??? Yes.
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
180-156=24
4 rows and 6 seashells in each row.
Row 1: 0 0 0 0 0 0
Row 2: 0 0 0 0 0 0
Row 3: 0 0 0 0 0 0
Row 4: 0 0 0 0 0 0
You add all of them together 6+6+6+6=24
Or you could do 6x4 and your answer would be 24
So the answer to the question is 24 seashells.
