\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
a_1=-7\\
d=0.5\\
n=8
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
a_8=a_1+(8-1)d\implies a_8=-7+(8-1)(0.5)

and surely you know how much that is.

Solve the inequality |* +31 &lt; |2x + 1.<br> |x+3|&lt;|2x+1|
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the steps to follow when solving absolute value inequalities:

Isolate the absolute value expression on the left side of the inequality.

If the number on the other side of the inequality sign is negative, your equation either has no solution or all real numbers as solutions.

If your problem has a greater than sign (your problem now says that an absolute value is greater than a number), then set up an "or" compound inequality that looks like this:

(quantity inside absolute value) < -(number on other side)

OR

(quantity inside absolute value) > (number on other side)

The same setup is used for a ³ sign.

If your absolute value is less than a number, then set up a three-part compound inequality that looks like this:

-(number on other side) < (quantity inside absolute value) < (number on other side)

The same setup is used for a £ sign

Write a rule for the linear function shown in the graph.
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Point Form:

( 1 ,   − 2 )

Equation Form:

x = 1 ,   y = − 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph.

y = 3 x − 1

y = x + 1

y = − x − 1

y = x + 1

How do I simplify this radical expression? I'm supposed to divide by rationalizing the denominator.
kotegsom [21]
In short, you use 1, since any number is itself times 1, or whatever = whatever * 1

\bf \cfrac{4}{\sqrt{50}}\iff \cfrac{4}{\sqrt{50}}\cdot 1\iff \cfrac{4}{\sqrt{50}}\cdot \cfrac{1}{1}\implies \cfrac{4}{\sqrt{50}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{50}}{\sqrt{50}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{4\sqrt{50}}{\sqrt{50^2}}\implies \cfrac{4\sqrt{50}}{50}

100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST: The short sides of a rectangle are 2 inches. The long sides of the same rectangle are three less than
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

x= "a certain number of inches"

side a= x-3

side b= 2 inches

multiply:

Area= a(b)

A= (x-3)2

A= 2(x-3)

distribute:

A= 2(x-3)

A= (2*x) + (2*-3)

A= 2x-6

Area= 2(x-3)

Area= 2x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is equal to the multiple of its two sides this is equal to two inches times an expression three less than a certain number "x". Using the distributive property, we can solve this expression further to find that the area of this rectangle is also equal to six less than doubling a certain number x.
