Answer:

A) No. It is an arithmetic sequence because you are subtracting by 3.

B) Yes. It is a geometric sequence because you are multiplying by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic is addition or subtraction.

5 - 3 = 2    2 - 3 = -1    -1 - 3 = -4

Geometric is multiplication.

5 X 2 = 10    10 X 2 = 20    20 X 2 = 40

ad-work [718]

Answer:

(8,11)

Step-by-step explanation:

1st line

y = x+ 3

We need to find the equation of the other line

We have two points (3, 1) and (4, 3)

Slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( 3-1)/(4-3)

   = 2/1 = 2

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

y =2x+b

Using the point (4,3)

3 = 2(4)+b

3 = 8+b

3-8=b

-5 =b

y = 2x-5

We have 2 lines

y =x+3 and y = 2x-5

Setting them equal to each other

x+3 = 2x-5

Subtract x from each side

x+3-x = 2x-5-x

3 = x-5

Add 5 to each side

3+5 =x-5+5

8=x

Now we can find y

y =x+3

y = 8+3

y=11

Law Incorporation [45]
X+20+10x=20+9x
adding like terms
x(10+1)+20=20+9x
11x+20=9x+20
subtracting 9x from both sides
2x+20=20
subtracting 20 from both sides
2x=0
dividing by two for both sides
x=0
