You would use the formula for the specific term you wish to find;
The formula is:

a = starting value of the sequence
d = the common difference (i.e. the difference between any two consecutive terms of the sequence)
n = the value corresponding to the position of the desired term in the sequence (i.e. 1 is the first term, 2 is the second, etc.)
Un = the actual vaue of the the term
For example, if we have the arithmetic sequence:
2, 6, 10, 14, ...
And let's say we want to find the 62nd term;
Then:
a = 2
d = 4
(i.e. 6 - 2 = 4, 10 - 6 = 4, 14 - 10 = 4;
You should always get the same number no matter which two terms you find the difference between so long as they are both
consecutive [next to each other], otherwise you are not dealing with an arithmetic sequence)
n = 62
And so:
The length of a diagonal is nine inches because it is the same length as the side length.
9 inches
12+12+9+9+8+8+8+8=74
12+12=24
9+9=18
8+8+8+8=32
24+18+32=74
Answer:
7x + 3y = 44
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c (m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange - 3x + 7y = 5 into this form by adding 3x to both sides
7y = 3x + 5 ( divide all terms by 7 )
y =
x +
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
= -
, thus
y = -
x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (5, 3) into the partial equation
3 = -
+ c ⇒ c = 3 +
= 
y = -
x +
← in slope- intercept form
Multiply through by 3
3y = - 7x + 44 ( add 7x to both sides )
7x + 3y = 44 ← in standard form
