Answer:
not arithmetic
Step-by-step explanation:
An arithmetic sequence has a common difference d between consecutive terms.
Given
= 2n² - 1
Substitute in n = 1, 2, 3, 4 to generate the first 4 terms of the sequence
= 2(1)² - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1
= 2(2)² - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7
= 2(3)² - 1 = 18 - 1 = 17
= 2(4)² - 1 = 32 - 1 = 31
check the difference between consecutive terms
7 - 1 = 6
17 - 7 = 10
31 - 17 = 14
The differences are not common hence not an arithmetic sequence
Make them both improper fractions.
77/10 - 19/5
Give them common denominators (multiply the second fraction by 2)
77/10 - 38/10
Subtract
39/10 = 3 9/10
It should be A. You would keep the 5, and the exponent should be 4+8, which is 12.
Answer:
140 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y
-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4
x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21
So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.
Hope this helps!
