Answer: - 58

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let us think of this number as x.

The first direction is to add 10 to it which is now x+10

After, we divide this by 6 getting -8.

This would look like (x + 10)/y = -8

Now, we solve

We go backwards so first step Is to multiply -8 by 6. This would get us -48. Then we subtract 10 since we added ten in the first place giving us -58.

The final answer is -58

Answer:

The original number was -58

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Do -8*6 to find out what the numerator was.

Step 2: After finding that the numerator was -48 you would subtract 10 getting -58

Step 3: Check your work : -58+10 = -48

                                            -48/6 = -8

Explain why a recursive rule alone does not define one sequence.
OverLord2011 [107]
In the recursive rule, there's a variable where you plug in the number of times you need the sequence to repeat, but you don't put 1 in that slot because there's another formula/rule you use to find that answer (I can't remember the name of the other rule right now I apologize I hope this makes sense)

In your own words explain how you would solve this two step equation for the variable x. 9x-7=-7
NeX [460]

Answer:

Add 7 to both sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation has to be just x = y

There cannot be another number on the same side as the variable

Now that we did that, the equation is 9x = 0

x = 0

Well, that was easy lol
