Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula for an arithmetic sequence is
a, a+d,a+3d,a+3d etc, where d is the common difference
we have the terms -6, 13,23
first term is -6
-6+19=13
however, 13+10=23
this is not an arithmetic sequence
Answer: 3 x 13 ?

Answer: x-2y = -8</h3>
===========================================
Explanation:
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear out the fraction
y = (1/2)x+4
2y = 2[ (1/2)x + 4 ]
2y = 2*(1/2)x + 2*4
2y = x + 8
Then move the x term over to the left side
2y = x+8
2y-x = 8
-x+2y = 8
Optionally we can multiply both sides by -1
-x+2y = 8
-1*(-x+2y) = -1*8
x-2y = -8
This is in standard form Ax+By = C with A = 1, B = -2, C = -8
The reason why I multiplied both sides by -1 was to make A > 0 which is what some textbooks use as convention. Of course -x+2y = 8 is equally valid too.
