Answer:
6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em>-1,3,5,9,13</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
2(-3)+5=-6+5=-1
2(-1)+5=-2+5=3
2(0)+5=0+5=5
2(2)+5=4+5=9
2(4)+5=8+5=13
Kylie's first month collection, a1= $ 145
Second month collection , a2= $145+ 20
Third month collection, a3 = $145 +2*20
.
.
.
.
so for n months collection = an-1+20
We get an= 20 + an-1 and a1=145
Answer: 3 kids take 3 pieces of candy each
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children that took 3 pieces is x ( total take 3*x pieces of candy)
Number of children that took 5 pieces is y ( total take 5*y pieces of candy)
1 child took 1 piece that actually means that x+y=18 and 3*x+5*y=84.
( Because total number of all kids is 19. We just deduct one kid (Let his name is John) who took only 1 candy. So we have 19-1 =18 kids without John. The similar is with the candies. Total number is 85. We deduct 1 piece which John has taken. )
So we have 2 equations or the system of 2 equations:
1). x+y=18
2). 3*x +5*y=84
Multuply both sides of equation 1) by 3
We have 3*x+3*y=18*3
Deduct 3*y from both sides of this equation
3*x+3*y-3*y=54-3*y
3*x=54-3*y
Substitute 3*x in equation 2). by 54-3*y
2) 54-3*y+5*y=84
2*y=30
y=15 ( kids take 5 pieces of candy each)
Using equation 1) find x
x+15=18
x=3 (kids take 3 pieces of candy each)
