Mathematics

Answer:

y = -3x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope intercept form of an equation

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -3x+b

Substitute the point into the equation

-1 = -3(3)+b

-1 = -9+b

Add 9 to each side

-1+9 = -9+9+b

8 =b

y = -3x+8

The second term of an arithmetic sequence is –5, and the third term is –20. What is the first term?
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a₁ = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference d is calculated as

d = a₃ - a₂ = - 20 - (- 5) = - 20 + 5 = - 15

Then

a₂ - a₁ = d , that is

- 5 - a₁ = - 15 ( add 5 to both sides )

- a₁ = - 10 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

a₁ = 10
