Given that new DVDs are selling for $12 and used for $7, then Joseph is buying:

Used DVDs = x
Total = t

t = 12(2) + 7x
t = 24 + 7x
t - 24 = 7x 
(t - 24) / (7) = x

If given the total, you can plug it in to variable t and then work the right side of the equation to isolate variable x and solve to find its value.

if we increased one side of a square by 5 units and decreased the other by 3 units the area of the resulting rectangle would be
zvonat [6]

Answer:

18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's list out the sides.

for the first square let's just call them x

for the second square then they would be x+5 and x-3

So let's write out their areas we will cal the area of the first one z

x*x = z

(x+5)*(x-3) = z+21

since z = x^2 we can set up the second equation as a quadratic.

(x+5)*(x-3) = x^2 + 21

x^2 - 3x + 5x - 15 = x^2 + 21

But look, the x^2s cancel out

2x - 15 = 21

2x = 36

x = 18

Test it out and see if it fits the description, And if you don't understand anything just let me know so I can explain more.

2. Write a recursive formula for the sequence 5, 18, 31, 44, 57, ... Then find the next term.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer: a6=70

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the Arithmetic Sequence the formula is:

an= a1 + d(n−1)

where

a1 is the first term

d is the common difference

n is the number of terms

in this problem

a1=5

a2=18

a3=31

a4=44

a5=57

so

d=a2-a1 or a3-a2 or a4-a3 or a5-a4

d=57-44----> 13

find a6

a6= a1 + d(n−1)

n=6

d=13

a1=5

a6=5+13*(6-1)----> a6=5+13*5----> a6=70
