Answer:
a1 = 2
d = 3
an = 2 + (n - 1) * 3
a7 = 20
a59 = 176
Steps:
a1 is the initial value (when n equals 1), and since there are 2 crosses, it is 2.
d is the added value to each amount of crosses. And since the second amount is 5 and the third amount is 8, we can determine that each n is adding 3 crosses, therefore making d = 3.
The equation is simply plugging in the values for a1 and d.
A7 is simply plugging in 7 for n in the equation and solving for it. So;
a7 = 2 + (7 - 1) * 3
a7 = 2 + 6 * 3
a7 = 2 + 18
a7 = 20
And same thing as the last for 59 except substitute 59 in for where you put 7;
a59 = 2 + (59 - 1) * 3
a59 = 2 + 58 * 3
a59 = 2 + 174
a59 = 176
It could be seen from the table that when x is 2, the y value is 0. Thus, it can be concluded that the x intercept is (2,0)
The correct answer is B
Answer:
10000
Step-by-step explanation:
Well substitute it
(5*2)^4
now follow order of operations (Parenthesis, exponents, multipication-division left to right, etc.)
5*2=10
10^4=10000
so the answer would be
10000 if y is 2
