Answer:

3n - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

a = -17

d = -14 - (-17) = 3

nth term = -17 + (n-1)(3)

= -17 + 3n - 3

= 3n - 20

Step-by-step explanation:

a= -17

d= -14-(-17)

= -14+17

= 3

the equation of nth term =a+(n-1)d

= -17+(n-1)3

= -17+3n-3

= 3n-20

HELP PLS! I CAN’T FAIL PRE-ALGEBRA!
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Q1.  2 - 5/ 8 - 0 = -3/8

Q2.  1- (-1)/6-2 = 2/4 simplified as 1/2

Q3.  (-5)- (-2)/ (-1)- (-3) = -3/2

Use a ruler to help you graph a line whose slope is 1/3. Label this line “a”

*Answer- 1/3 is being shown for rise/run (Rise over Run, 1 being rise and 3 being run). this means that you go up one and right 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

y2-y1 *over* x2- x1. Also if you can simplify the end fraction do it but if not then leav it as it is. This is the equation that I used for the first 3 problems. Also I didnt quit understand the 1st word problem sorry! I hope this helps :v

If (x - 4) varies inversely as (y + 3) and x = 8 when y = 2, what is x when y = - 1?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

If two values are inversely proportional, their product must be maintained. That way, if one value goes up, the other goes down by the same extent.

Therefore, if (x-4) and (y+3) vary inversely, their product will be the same for all values of x-4 and y+3.

Let x=8 and y=2 as given in the problem. Substitute values:

(8-4)(2+3)=(4)(5)=20

Hence, the maintained product is 20.

Thus, we have the following equation:

(x-4)(y+3)=20

Substitute y=-1 to find the value of x when y=-1:

(x-4)(-1+3)=20,\\(x-4)(2)=20,\\x-4=10,\\x=10+4=\boxed{14}
