Y = mx + b
m = slope, b = y-intercept
m = -3, therefore the slope is -3
Hi there!
To find your answer, let us see what number can go evenly into 17 and 147.
Since it looks like nothing can go into each number evenly, is already simplified down to its lowest terms and it can't go any lower than that.
Hope this helps! :D
Message me if you need anymore help on anything!
Find the next two terms in the given sequence, then write it in recursive form. A.) {7,12,17,22,27,...} B.) { 3,7,15,31,63,...}

Answer:
A) a_n = 5n + 2
B) a_n = (2^(n + 1)) - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The sequence is given as;
{7,12,17,22,27,...}
The differences are:
5,5,5,5.
This is an arithmetic sequence following the formula;
a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d
d is 5
Thus;
a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)5
Now, a_1 = 7. Thus;
a_n = 7 + 5n - 5
a_n = 5n + 2
B) The sequence is given as;
{ 3,7,15,31,63,...}
Now, let's write out the differences of this sequence:
Differences are:
4, 8, 16, 32
This shows that it is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 2.
In the given sequence, a_1 = 3 and a_2 = 7 and a_3 = 15
Thus, a_2 = 2a_1 + 1
Also, a_(2 + 1) = 2a_2 + 1
Combining both equations, we can deduce that: a_(n + 1) = 2a_n + 1
Thus; a_n can be expressed as:
a_n = (2^(n + 1)) - 1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: MN ≅ MA
ME ≅ MR
Prove: ∠E ≅ ∠R
From the given diagram,
YN ≅ YA
EY ≅ RY
<EMA = <RMN (right angle property)
EA = EY + YA (addition property of a line)
NR = YN + RY (addition property of a line)
EA ≅ NR (congruent property)
ΔEMA ≅ ΔRMN (Side-Side-Side, SSS, congruence property)
<MNR ≅ MAE (angle property of congruent triangles)
Therefore,
<E ≅ <R (angle property of congruent triangles)
Let the numbers be x and y; x being the larger number and y being the smaller.
Given,
x + y = 2* (x - y)
x + y = 2x - 2y
x = 3y
Also given,
x = 6 + 2y
3y = 6 + 2y
--- y = 6
Thus, x = 3y = 3*6 = 18.
Therefore, the numbers are 18 and 6.
