1.) expand

3x - 15 - 5x = 25 + 6x

2.) simplify

-2x - 15 = 25 + 6x

3.) add 2x to both sides

-15 = 25 + 6x + 2x

4.) simplify

-15 = 25 + 8x

5.) subtract 25 from both sides

-15 - 25 = 8x

6.) simplify -15 - 25 to -40

-40 = 8x

7.) divide both sides by 8

-40/8 = x

8.) x = -5

Given the Arithmetic sequence A1,A2,A3,A4 53, 62, 71, 80 What is the value of A38?

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

$A_{38} = 350$

Step-by-step explanation:

The 5th term of the arithmetic sequence is 53. We can write the equation:

$a + 4d = 53...(1)$

The 6th term of the arithmetic sequence is 62. We can write the equation:

$a + 5d = 62...(2)$

Subtract the first equation from the second one to get:

$5d - 4d = 62 - 53$

$d = 9$

The first term is

$a + 4(9) = 53$

$a + 36 = 53$

$a = 53 - 36$

$a = 17$

The 38th term of the sequence is given by:

$A_{38} = a + 37d$

$A_{38} = 17+ 37(9)$

$A_{38} = 350$
