5x + 25y = 60....multiply by -3
3x + 15y = 42....multiply by 5
-------------------
-15x - 75y = - 180 (result of multiplying by -3)
15x + 75y = 210 (result of multiplying by 5)
-------------------add
0 = 30...incorrect.....this system has no solutions

Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a1 = 6
an = 3 + 2(an-1),
Substitute n = 2 into the formula
a2 = 3 + 2(a1)
a2 = 3 + 2(6)
a2 = 3+12
a2 = 15
Hence the second term of the sequence is 15
Answer:
625/17
