Answer:
The nth term of the given sequence

Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>
Given sequence -5,-4,-1,4,11,20,31
a₀ = -5
a₁ = a₀ +1 = -5 +1 = -4
a₂ = a₁ + 3 = -4+3 = -1
a₃ = a₂ + 5 = -1 +5 = 4
a₄ = a₃ + 7 = 4 + 7 =11
a₅ = a₄ + 9 = 11+9 = 20
a₆ = a₅ + 11 = 20+11 = 31
a₇ = a₆ + 13 = 31 +13 =44
and so on
The nth term of the given sequence

Answer:
There are 69120 total combinations.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total number of combinations, we multiply all these values. So
16 people
18 colors
12 shades
20 tertiary gradients.
How many combinations are there total?
16*18*12*20 = 69120
There are 69120 total combinations.
I assume you are being asked to solve these equations. Since there wasn't an explanation as to how you are expected to solve them, I chose to demonstrate how to use a calculator matrix function. You can find matrix calculators online. My instructions are for a TI-84
Push the blue 2nd button then push x^-1 button (it says matrix above this button in blue)
Arrow over to edit to change the dimensions of the matrix and to put in your values. You have 3 equations (3 rows) and 4 terms (4 columns) so you put a 3x4 in for the dimension and the coefficients (see images).
You use the rref option in the math column in matrix to calculate the answer.
The numbers at the end are the solutions. x = -4, y = 2, z = -1
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x+8)+5(x-3)
= 4x+32+5(x-3)
=4x+32+5x-15
=9x+17
Answer: 9x+17
