The missing value is 6 so 2/5 = 6/15
-30, 10*4=40 so you do 9-40+1 which is equal to -30
The numbers are being multiplied by 7
.5 • 7 = 3.5
3.5 • 7 = 24.5
24.5 • 7 = 171.5
etc
“Square five times a number” with “a number” being x is the same as saying:
5x²
“three more than the number” is the same as saying:
3 + x
Therefore the sentence “When you square five times a number, you get three more than the number.” is the same as:
5x² = 3 + x
Hope this helps, have a great day! :)
Y = -1/4x + c
5 = -1/4 x 4 + c
5 = -1 + c
c = 6
y = -1/4 + 6
