Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Mark any two points in line a
(0,7) ; (5,-3)
Find the slope
slope = y2 - y1 /x2-x1

Equation: y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y - 7 = -2(x - 0)
y - 7 = -2x
y = -2x + 7 --------> line a
c) equation of line b
(2,-1); slope = -2 {as b line is parallel to line a}
y - y1 =m(x-x1)
y -(-1) = -2*(x - 2)
y + 1 = -2x - 2*-2
y + 1 = -2x + 2
y = -2x + 2 -1
y = -2x +1 ------> equation of line b
Answer:
x(x)=1/4(30+60+x)
Step-by-step explanation:
minutes spent on math homework= x
minutes spent on history homework= 30 min
minutes spent on English homework= 60 min
Total minutes spent on homework = x+30 +60
Also
x= 1/4(x+30 +60)
x= x/4 + 90/4
x-x/4= 90/4
(4x-x)/4=90/4
3x=90
x=30
Hence time spent on maths=30 min
total time spent= 30+60+30
= 120 min
1/4 of 120 min= 30 mins!
Solve the system
<span>y = x + 4
y = 3x + 6
Note that both equations have been solved for y. Thus, you can set y = y, or
x+4=3x+6. Simplifying, -2 = 2x, or x = -1.
Another way to look at this would be x + 4 = 3x + 6.</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>Checkmark:</u>
✓ The sequence is geometric
✓ The recursive formula for the sequence is
; 
✓ The explicit formula for the sequence is 
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by -3 gives the next term.
r = -3

= -2
Substitute the values in the equation:

This is a explicit formula since the next value depends on the position of n (1, 2, 3 .etc)
The recursive formula would be:
