Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Common difference is 3.

Let x be a term in the sequence. The next term in the sequence is x+3.

x(x+3) = 598

x² + 3x - 598 = 0

x = [-3 ± √(3²-4⋅1(-598))]/[2⋅1] = [-3 ± 49]/2 = 23, -26

-26 is an extraneous solution, so x = 23.

The two terms are 23 and 26.

-6x + 5y = 1<br> 6x + 4y = –10
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

x=-1

y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + 5y =1 ......equation (1)

6x + 4y = –10 ......equation (2)

adding equation (1) to equation (2)

9y=-9

9y/9 =-9/9 (dividing both side by the coefficient of y)

y=-1

subtituting the value of y =-1 into equation (2)

6x+4(-1)=-10

6x+(-4)=-10

6x-4=-10

6x=-10+4(making constant to be at one side and the variable at the other side)

6x=-6

x=-6/6

x=-1
