Answer:

a) 6:8

Because you have 14 books total if you substract 14 - 6= 8, so now you have

14 Books total

6 New Books

8 Used Books.

So, the ratio of new books to used books is 6:8 or if you simplified is 3:4.

b) 8:14

Because you have 8 used books compare to 14 books total. If you simplified your fraction you'll have 4:7

Answer:

(-3,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 5

-3 + (2*4) = 5

-3 + 8 = 5

5 = 5

2x + 3y = 6

(2*-3) + (3*4)=6

-6 + 12 = 6

6 = 6

2.8, 3.4, 4.0, 4.6, . . . Write an equation for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence. Then find a50.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

a_n = 2.2 + 0.6 n

a_50 = 32.2

Step-by-step explanation:

What's the common difference of this series?

a_1 = 2.8

a_2 = 3.4

Common difference = a_2 - a_1 = 3.4 - 2.8 = 0.6.

Expression for the nth term:

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1) \cdot\text{Common Difference} \\\phantom{a_n } = 2.8 + 0.6 \; (n-1) \\\phantom{a_n} = 2.8 + 0.6 \; n - 0.6\\\phantom{a_n} = 2.2 + 0.6\; n

n = 50 for the fiftieth term. Therefore

a_{50} = 2.2 + 0.6 \times 50 = 32.2.
