What is the eighth term in the arithmetic sequence defined by the explicit formula an=5n+3 ?

The eighth term of the arithmetic sequence is 43

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:

a_{n}=a+(n-1)d , where

  • a is the 1st term
  • d is the common difference between the consecutive terms
  • n is the position of the term

∵ The explicit formula of an arithmetic sequence is a_{n}=5n + 3 ,

   where n is the position of the term

∵ We need to find the eighth term

- That means the position of the term is 8th in the sequence

∴ n = 8

- Substitute n by 8 in the given formula

∴ a_{8}=5(8)+3

∴ a_{8}=40+3

∴ a_{8}=43

The eighth term of the arithmetic sequence is 43

A dilation centered at the origin is applied to the line y = 3x + 5.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

"The question cannot be answered without knowing the scale factor."

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The complete question:</u>

<em>A dilation centered at the origin is applied to the line y = 3x + 5.  What is true about the image of the line?</em>

  • <em>It is the same line. </em>
  • <em> It is another line parallel to y = 3x + 5. </em>
  • <em> The image is not a line. </em>
  • <em> The question cannot be answered without knowing the scale factor.</em>

<em />

A dilation, center at origin, with a scale factor of "k", will have a rule:

(x,y) = (kx,ky)

This basically means that the image after dilation will have the points kx and ky respectively.

If k ≠ 1, this means the image is parallel to the line y = 3x + 5

If k = 1, this means the image is same, it coincides with the line y = 3x + 5

<u><em>Thus, the scale factor is really important and we can't say anything about this dilation since scale factor isn't known.</em></u>

2x − 4y = 40,<br> −x + 2y = −20<br><br> Find x and y intercept
Basile [38]

Answer:

The x and y intercept are (20,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-4y=40—eqn1

-x+2y=-20—eqn2

Make x the subject of eqn2

-x=-20-2y

x=20+2y

plug this into eqn 1

2(20+2y)+4y=40

40+4y+4y=40

8y=40-40

y=0

plug y=0 into eqn2

-x+2(0)=-20

-x=-20

x=20

Solve the system by the substitution method.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations

x-3y=-4-------------------------------(1)

y=-3x+8.------------------------------(2)

Substitute 2 in 1. This means use the value of y in equation 1, to replace y

x-3(-3x+8)=-4------------------open brackets

x+9x-24=-4---------------------collect like terms

10x=-4+24

10x=20---------------------------divide by 10 both sides to get value of x

10x/10=20/10=2

x=2------------------------------use value of x in equation (2) to get value of y

y=-3x+8

y=-3(2)+8

y=-6+8=2

solutions

x=2, y=2
