An = a1 + (n-1)d

a8 = 10 + (8-1)(-1/4)
a8 = 10 + 7(-1/4)
a8 = 10 + (-1.75)
a8 = 8.25 or 8 1/4

Answer:

x² = y + 16
4y - 1 = 7x
(5, 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing equations from words is mostly a matter of understanding what the English words mean.

If the first number is x, then the square of the first number is x². That is said to be equal to the sum of the second number (y) and 16:

x² = y + 16 . . . . the first equation

The wording "the difference of A and B" is usually intended to be interpreted to mean A-B. Here, we have the difference of 4 times the second number (4y) and 1, so ...

4y -1

This is equal to the first number (x) multiplied by 7, so ...

4y -1 = 7x . . . . the second equation

These can be solved a variety of ways. When no method is specified, I like to use a graphing calculator. It shows the only integer solution for this pair of equations is ...

(x, y) = (5, 9)
