Answer:
The decimal form of the equation is y = 2.5x + 10
The equivalent fraction form is y = (5/2)x + 10 because 5/2 = 2.5
===========================================================
Explanation:
We can pick any two columns from the table to form the two points needed.
I'll pick the first two columns
(1, 12.5)
(2, 15)
Then apply the slope formula to those points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (15-12.5)/(2-1)
m = (2.5)/(1)
m = 2.5
Now use that slope with either point mentioned to find the y intercept b.
y = mx+b
12.5 = 2.5*1 + b
12.5 = 2.5 + b
12.5 - 2.5 = b
10 = b
b = 10
Or
y = mx+b
15 = 2.5*2+b
15 = 5+b
15-5 = b
10 = b
b = 10
We end up with the same b value.
We found that m = 2.5 is the slope and b = 10 is the y intercept
Therefore we go from y = mx+b to y = 2.5x + 10
This is the same as saying y = (5/2)x + 10 since 2.5 = 5/2
Answer: 6
Step 1: Subtract 6 to get to 0.
-6 - 6 = 0.
Step 2: Add 6.
0 + 6 = 6.
Answer = 6

Answer:
18 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
The first given sequence has first term a1=2 and common difference d=5. Its explicit formula is ...
an = 2 +5(n -1) = 5n -3
We want the n-th term of this sequence to be the same as the n-th term of the sequence defined by ...
an = 4n +15
We can find n that makes this true by setting the 'an' values equal:
an = an
5n -3 = 4n +15
n = 18 . . . . . . . . . . add 3-4n
The number of terms in each sequence is 18.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The last term in each sequence is 87.
Answer:
x = 7.33
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 15 = 7
3x = 7 + 15
3x = 22
x = 7.33
