Answer:
The value of y s 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertical angles are always equal to one another. In this case, we can find the angles by setting the two values equal and solving algebraically.
2y + 5 = 4y
5 = 2y
2.5 = y
The first term of this series (a+1) is 1 and the common ratio (r) is -3.
Thus, the explicit formula is a_n = 1*(-3)^(n-1).
Must check this! suppose we try to calculate the 3rd term. Then n = 3.
a_3 = 1*(-3)^(3-1) = (-3)^2 = 9. This is correct.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that dont't contain the variable.



-8 -8

Divide both sides by 5.
