<span>Jerry is 8 years younger than Patricia, so:
(1): Jerry = Patricia - 8
Six years ago, Patricia was 3 times as old as Jerry was then, so:
(2): (Patricia - 6) = (Jerry - 6)*3
Putting equation 1 in to equation 2
(Patricia - 6) = (Patricia - 8 - 6)*3
Patricia - 6 = 3Patricia - 42
36 = 2Patricia
Patricia = 18
And so Jerry = 10</span>
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a1 = 6
an = 3 + 2(an-1),
Substitute n = 2 into the formula
a2 = 3 + 2(a1)
a2 = 3 + 2(6)
a2 = 3+12
a2 = 15
Hence the second term of the sequence is 15
The answer is -0.34. hope this helps
186 because you would divide 341 by 11 and you get 31 then multiply that by 6 and you get 186. Did this help?
The greatest common factor is 10
