Answer:

The only common term is 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sequence 1:

n^{th}\text{ term: } 2n^2 + 1

Sequence 2:

n^{th}\text{ term: } 65 - 2n^2

Equating the two terms, we get,

2n^2 + 1 = 65 - 2n^2\\4n^2 = 64\\\\n^2 = \dfrac{64}{4}\\\\n^2 = 16\\n = \pm 4

Since, n cannot take a negative value, we get n = 4.

Thus, there is only 1 common term both the series have for n = 4.

Common term:

2(4)^2+ 1 - 65-2(4)^2 = 33

Thus, the only common term is 33.

Solve for x.<br> -5/4x = -30<br> Simplify your answer as much as possible.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

The answer is x=24.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a one step equation, so it is simple, as shown.

In order to isolate the variable, you need to multiply each side of the equation by the fraction's reciprocal. In this case, it is -4/5.

Thus, x= -30 x -4/5

All things said, the answer is x=24.

I hope this helped!!
