◆ Arithmetic Progressions ◆
Hey !!
Check the attachment.
Hope it helps you :)
First, let's cancel out the x by multiplying 2x + 18y = -9 by -2.
-2 ( 2x + 18y = -9) = -4x -36y = 18
Then, we combine the two equations.
-4x + 4x = 0
18y - 36y = -18y
-27 + 18 = -9
Our new equation is -18y = -9.
Now, divide both sides by -18.
-18y / -18 = y
-9/ -18 = 1/2
y = 1/2
We can plug in a value for y since y = 1/2 now.
Let's use 2x + 18y = -9
Plug in y.
2x + 18(1/2) = -9
2x + 9 = -9
Then, subtract 9 from both sides.
2x = -18
Divide by 2.
2x/2 = x
-18/2 = -9
x = -9
Lastly, we can plug in both x and y values to see it works.
2(-9) + 18(1/2) = -9
-18 + 9 = -9
Therefore, the values of x and y does work.
x = -9
y = 1/2
Answer:
quotient
Step-by-step explanation:
yup it just is
I feel like it’s the last set but then again I haven’t done that kind of math in a few years. Hopefully that helps !
<span>Part
1: Jasmine
practices the piano for 30 minutes on Monday. Every day she increases her practice time by 5 minutes. If she continues this
pattern, how many minutes, on the 7th day she will practice Tn = a + (n - 1)d
T7 = 30 + 5(7 - 1) = 30 + 5(6) = 30 + 30
T7 = 60 minutes
Part 2: Anthony
goes to the gym for 10 minutes on Monday. Every day he multiplies his
gym time by 2. If he continues this pattern, on the 5th day she will spend 10(2)^(5 - 1) = 10(2)^4 = 10(16) = 160 minutes in the gym.
