This question can be solved using 2 equations since there are 2 unknowns. First, let x = price of the tennis ball and y = price of the baseball. The resulting equations are: (1) 5x +3y = 23.75 and (2) 2x + 7y = 31.25. Solving the 2 equations simultaneously, you get, x = 2.5 and y = 3.75. The price of the baseball is then $3.75.

Find s7 for 3 8 13 18
vagabundo [1.1K]
 I know u are supposed to use formulas to do this...but it is just as easy to do it this way...that is, if u dont have many numbers...if u were looking for s20, we would have used formulas...lol
u will notice that in ur pattern, their is a difference of 5 between each number....this is an arithmetic sequence

start at 3
3 + 5 = 8
8 + 5 = 13
13 + 5 = 18
18 + 5 = 23
23 + 5 = 28
28 + 5 = 33
thats ur first 7 numbers...so just add them and u will have s7
s7 = 126

Ann takes 70 paces to walk 50m. the number of paces ann takes to walk 3.5km is A.70 B.490. C.3900 D.4900​
Shalnov [3]
<h3>Answer:  4900  (choice D)</h3>

===================================================

Work Shown:

1 km = 1000 m

3.5 km = 3500 m  ............. multiplying both sides by 3.5

(70 paces)/(50 m) = (x paces)/(3500 m)

70/50 = x/3500

7/5 = x/3500

7*3500 = 5x .............. cross multiply

5x = 7*3500

x = (7*3500)/5

x = (7*5*700)/5

x = 7*700

x = 4900

Ann takes 4900 paces to walk 3.5 km
