<h3>
Answer: Trapezoid</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
There are two ways to do this problem.
Method 1 involves listing out the terms until we reach the seventh one.
- square
- hexagon
- trapezoid
- triangle
- square
- hexagon
- trapezoid
- triangle
We see that the trapezoid is term 7.
-------------
Method 2 is faster and the one I recommend.
Since the pattern repeats every 4 items, this means we divide by 4 and look at the remainder. Ignore the quotient entirely.
7/4 = 1 remainder 3
The remainder 3 means that the answer is found in term 3, which is the trapezoid.
4(x-2)-3=9
<span>Reorder the terms:
4(-2 + x) + -3 = 9
</span><span>(-2 * 4 + x * 4) + -3 = 9
</span><span>(-8 + 4x) + -3 = 9
</span><span>Reorder the terms:
-8 + -3 + 4x = 9
</span><span>Combine like terms:
-8 + -3 = -11
</span>-11 + 4x = 9
<span>Solving:
-11 + 4x = 9
</span>Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 11 + 4x = 9 + 11
Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 4x = 9 + 11
4x = 9 + 11
<span>Combine like terms:
9 + 11 = 20
4x = 20
</span><span>Divide each side by 4.
x = 5</span>
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:

We can multiply both sides by 1.5 to isolate x

Answer:
1. -1
2. 5
3. 14
4. 26
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b ≥ 500
Step-by-step explanation:
since the balance has to be at least 500, b has to be grater than or equal to 500, so b ≥ 500
