Answer:
18 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
The first given sequence has first term a1=2 and common difference d=5. Its explicit formula is ...
an = 2 +5(n -1) = 5n -3
We want the n-th term of this sequence to be the same as the n-th term of the sequence defined by ...
an = 4n +15
We can find n that makes this true by setting the 'an' values equal:
an = an
5n -3 = 4n +15
n = 18 . . . . . . . . . . add 3-4n
The number of terms in each sequence is 18.

Answer:
The loan was for 9 months only
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with calculating the time taken for a loan om an interest to be paid back
To calculate this, we use the simple interest formula
Mathematically;
I = PRT/100
where P is the principal which is the amount borrowed and that is $500 according to the question
R is the rate which is 8% according to the question
Interest can be calculated by subtracting the principal from the amount paid back = 530-500 = 30$
We now plug these values into the equation
30 = (500 × 8× T)/100
100 × 30 = 4000T
T = 3000/4000
T = 0.75 (same as 0.75 × 12 months = 9 months)
Answer: The solution is (3, -2)
This means that x = 3 and y = -2 pair up together.
=====================================================
Explanation:
The solution is where the two lines cross. Note if we started at the origin (0,0) and moved to the right 3 units, and then down 2 units, we would arrive at the location (3, -2).
-----------------
As a way to check, we can plug x = 3 into each equation. We should get y = -2 as a result for each equation
y = (-5/3)x + 3
y = (-5/3)*3 + 3
y = -5+3
y = -2
The first equation is confirmed. Let's check the second equation
y = (1/3)x - 3
y = (1/3)*3 - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = -2
Both equations have the y value equal -2 when x = 3. Therefore, the overall solution is confirmed.
Answer:
4 3/4 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
5 1/4 + 2 1/2 = 7 3/4
(1/2 is equal to 2/4)
12 1/2 - 7 3/4 = 4 3/4
