Write a formula for the general term (the nth term) of the arithmetic sequence to find the sixth term of the sequence with the g

Ainat [17]

Answer:

a₆ = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of an arithmetic sequence is: $a_1, a_1 + d, a_1 + 2d, a_1 + 3d, \hdots$

where, $a_1$ is the first term and

$d$ is the common difference.

The $n^{th}$ term of the sequence is given by $a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d$ .

Therefore, $a_6 = a_1 + (6 - 1)d = a_1 + 5d$

$\implies a_6 = 14 + 5(8) = 14 + 40$

∴ a₆ = 54

find two numbers such that the sum of twice the first and thrice the second is 92 ,and four times the first exceeds seven times

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

First number = 25

Second number = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x & y

The sum of twice the first and thrice the second is 92

2x + 3y = 92 -------------------(I)

Four times the first exceeds seven times the second by 2

4x - 7y = 2 --------------------(II)

Multiply equation (I) by -2 and then add the equations

(I)*-2 -4x - 6y = -184

(II) <u> 4x - 7y = 2 </u> { Now add, thus x will be eliminated}

- 13y = -182 {Divide both sides by -13}

y = -182/-13

y = 14

Plugin the value of y in equation (I)

2x + 3*14 = 92

2x + 42 = 92

2x = 92 - 42

2x = 50

x = 50/2

x = 25

First number = 25

Second number = 14
