Mathematics
1 answer:
yulyashka [42]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given AP where:</u>

  • a₄ = 2a₂ - 1
  • a₆ = 7

<u>To find</u>

  • a₁ = ?

<u>Since</u>

  • a₄ = a₁ + 3d
  • a₂ = a₁ + d
  • a₆ = a₁ + 5d

<u>Initial equations will change as:</u>

  • a₁ + 3d = 2(a₁ + d) - 1  ⇒  a₁ + 3d = 2a₁ + 2d - 1 ⇒ a₁ = d + 1
  • a₁ + 5d = 7 ⇒ a₁ = 7 - 5d

<u>Comparing the above:</u>

  • d + 1 = 7 - 5d
  • 6d = 6
  • d = 1

<u>Then:</u>

  • a₁ = d + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2
  • a₁ = 2

The first term is 2

Mariana wears her winter coat when the temperature is colder than -4^{\circ}\text{C}−4 ∘ Cminus, 4, degrees, start text, C, end
Savatey [412]

Answer:

T < - 4°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Mariana wears her coat only when temperature is colder than - 4°C

Recall that lower temperature values indicate higher degree of coldness ;

Hence, Mariana will only wear her coat when temperature values are lesser than - 4°C ; this means that the temperature at that period is colder than - 4°C.

Hence, the inequality expression which is only true for temperatures when Mariana wears her coat can be written as :

Temperature = T

T < - 4°C
