Answer:

A(1)=9

A(2)=4

A(3)=-1

Arithmetic sequence

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

A(n+1)=A(n)-5 \;for\;n\geq 1 A(1)=9

We have to find first three terms and identify the sequence is geometric or arithmetic.

Substitute n=1

Then, we get

A(2)=A(1)-5=9-5=4

For n=2

A(3)=A(2)-5=4-5=-1

For n=3

A(4)=-1-5=-6

d_1=A_2-A_1=4-9=-5

d_2=A_3-A_2=-1-4=-5

d_3=A_4-A_3=-6+1=-5

d_1=d_2=d_3=-5

When the difference of consecutive terms are constant then the sequence is arithmetic sequence.

Therefore, given sequence is arithmetic sequence.

If K is the midpoint of JL, JK = 8x+11 and KL = 14x-1, find JL.
gladu [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, K is the midpoint of JL.

\therefore \: JK = KL \\ 8x + 11 = 14x - 1 \\ 11 + 1 = 14x - 8x \\ 12 = 6x \\  \frac{12}{6}  = x \\ 2 = x \\  \\  \because \: JL = JK + KL \\   \therefore \: JL = 8x + 11 + 14x - 1 \\ \therefore \: JL = 8x + 14x + 11 - 1 \\ \therefore \: JL = 22x + 10\\  \therefore \: JL = 22 \times 2 + 10..(plug \: x = 2) \\  \therefore \:JL = 44 + 10 \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:JL = 54}}

How would I graph this?
elena55 [62]

y\leq 2x-5

↝ x-intercept

2x-5=0\\2x=5\\x=\frac{5}{2}

↝ y-intercept

y = -5

↝ y\leq 2x-5 means that the shade/area is below the graph as shown in the first picture.

y\leq -\frac{1}{2}x-3

↝ x-intercept

-\frac{1}{2}x-3=0\\-x-6=0\\-x=6\\x=-6

↝ y-intercept

y = -3

↝ Since it's "≤" therefore. The shade/area is below the graph. For second picture.

First picture is first inequality

Second picture is second inequality.
