Answer:

a) Arithmetic

b) 22.5

c) 4.5

d) a_n = 4.5 + 4.5(n - 1)

e) a_15 = 67.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Subtract one term by the term right before it, and the difference will be the common difference.

9 - 4.5 = 4.5

13.5 - 9 = 4.5

18 - 13.5 = 4.5

Therefore, the common difference is 4.5.

b) Since the common difference is 4.5, add 4.5 to the 18 (which was the last value given). The result is 22.5.

c) We have already figured out that the common difference is 4.5.

d) The explicit formula would be a_n = a1 + d(n - 1). The first term is 4.5 and d is also 4.5, so the explicit formula is a_n = 4.5 + 4.5(n-1).

e) Plug 15 into our explicit formula for n. a_15 = 4.5 + 4.5(14). The result is 67.5.

Answer:

A. Arithmetic, because they have a common difference of 4.5

B. The next term will be 18 + 4.5 = 22.5

C. Common difference = T2 — T1 or T3 —T2

T2 — T1 = 9 — 4.5 = 4.5 or

T3 —T2 = 13.5 — 9 = 4.5

D. Tn = a + d( n — 1)

E. Tn = a + d( n — 1)

a = 4.5

d = 4.5

n = 15

T15 = 4.5 + 4.5( 15 — 1)

T15 = 4.5 + 4.5(14) = 67.5

How do i find the x intercet for y=6x−7.
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:  

y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  y-6x+7  = 0 and calculate its properties.

Graph of a Straight Line

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is -7/1 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=-7.00000

 y-intercept = -7/1  = -7.00000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 7/6 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x= 1.16667

 x-intercept = 7/6  =  1.16667

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -7.000 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 5.000. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 5.000 - (-7.000) = 12.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

  Slope     = 12.000/2.000 =  6.000

 Slope = 12.000/2.000 = 6.000

 x-intercept = 7/6 = 1.16667

 y-intercept = -7/1 = -7.00000
