Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for finding the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given as:

first term = -15
common difference = -6 - (-15) = 9
number of terms
substituting into the formula , we have :


When it says 7/10, it actually means 70%, so you have to find 70% of 120.

70 % of 120
= 70% x 120
= (70/100) x 120
= (8400/100)
= 84
Answer: 84</span>
Answer: Add 9 to both sides to complete the square
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the number you need to add to complete the square is (b/2)^2. In this case, b = -6, so:
(b/2)^2 = (-6/2)^2 = (-3)^2 = 9.
(After adding 9 to both sides, you will get x^2 - 6x + 9 = 14 which can be factored to (x - 3)^2 = 14)
