We can find a formula for nth term of the given sequence as follows:
1, 5, 12, 22, 35
The 1st differences between terms:
4, 7, 10, 13
The 2nd differences :
3, 3, 3
Since it takes two rounds of differences to arrive at a constant difference between terms, the nth term will be a 2nd degree polynomial of the form: 
, where c is a constant. The coefficients a, b, and the constant c can be found.
We can form the following 3 equations with 3 unknowns a, b, c:
Solving for a, b, c, we get:
a = 3/2, b = -1/2, c = 0
Therefore, the nth term of the given sequence is:
Answer:
83,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Just carry the decimal point over to the right 4 places.
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx
so
we have
a) for x=1 y=0.50--------> y/x=0.50/1------> 0.50
b) for x=2 y=1--------> y/x=1/2-------> 0.50
c) for x=3 y=1.50--------> y/x=1.50/3-----> 0.50
d) for x=5 y=2.50--------> y/x=2.50/5----> 0.50
the value of k is equal to 0.50
so
<span>the relationship forms a direct variation. </span>
the equation is
y=0.50*x
Verify
for x=1
y=0.50*(1)------> y=0.50-----> is correct
for x=2
y=0.50*(2)------> y=1.00-----> is correct
for x=3
y=0.50*(3)------> y=1.50-----> is correct
for x=5
y=0.50*(5)------> y=2.50-----> is correct
Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 5y = 7
3x - 2y = -12
Let's solve this by elimination. We want to eliminate one variable at a time. This means we need to multiply the equations to create a common multiple to cancel out a variable.
Let's work with y.
5y and -2y: For these values to cancel out, we need to multiply each term to create a common multiple.
2(4x + 5y = 7)
5(3x - 2y = -12)
Multiply.
8x + 10y = 14
15x - 10y = -60
Eliminate.
23x = -46
Divide both sides by 23.
x = -2
Now that we know x, let's plug it back into one of equations to find y.
4x + 5y = 7
4(-2) + 5y = 7
Multiply.
-8 + 5y = 7
Add.
5y = 15
Divide.
y = 3
Now we know x and y; let's plug both back into the equation we have not checked yet.
3x - 2y = -12
3(-2) - 2(3) = -12
Multiply.
-6 - 6 = -12
Subtract.
-12 = -12
Your solution is correct.
(-2, 3)
Hope this helps!
Equation = 12 - -24 = ?
After keep, change, flip: 12 + 24 = ?
