Answer:

The first term is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for this kind of sequence (arithmetic) is a(n) = a(1) + (n-1)c, where c is the common difference.  Here, we have a(6) = -1 = a(1) + (6-1)(-3), or -1 +15 = a(1).  The first term is 14.

Braxton and Maggie babysit children for extra money over the summer. Braxton's income is determined by f(x) = 9x + 10, where x i
Galina-37 [17]
Lets say that Maggie works 5 hours just the same as Braxton. if we use h(x)=f(x)+g(x) they would make about $100 combined. having to split that Braxton would make less then what he originally. since 9(5)+10= 55 and 6(5)+15=45. but if say Maggie works more then 5 hours then Braxton will be more money then just working alone.

In triangle ACD, what is the value of X:<br> who ever show works gets brainly.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is

\frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{AE}{ED}, substitute values

\frac{x}{6} = \frac{10}{8} ( cross- multiply )

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 7.5
