3, 1, -1, -3, -5
 -2  -2  -2  -2

a(n) = a₁ + d(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n - 1)
a(n) = 3 - 2(n) + 2(1)
a(n) = 3 - 2n + 2
a(n) = -2n + 3 + 2
a(n) = -2n + 5
   a₁₄ = -2(14) + 5
   a₁₄ = -28 + 5
   a₁₄ = -23

The answer is C.

Y = 7/8u + 9, solve for u
vivado [14]

Answer:

u=\frac{8y-72}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Flip the equation.

\frac{7}{8}u+9=y

Add -9 to both sides

\frac{7}{8}u+9(-9)=y(-9)

\frac{7}{8}u=y-9

Divide both sides by 7/8

u=\frac{8y-72}{7}

hope this helps

What is the solution of the equation 14^x=5?<br> Round your answer to the nearest ten-thousandth.
deff fn [24]
Take ln to both sides
ln 14^x = ln 5
then you'll get
x ln 14 = ln 5
divide both sides by ln 14
x = 0.6098533345
after rounding
x = 0.6099
