8x-7(1/2x+7)=14 solve thid

1 answer:

7 0

First, you would use the distributive property to multiply -7 into the parenthesis. Then you’d have 8x-3.5x-49=14 Then you add 49 to both sides to combine like terms and get 8x-3.5x=63 Next you would combine like terms on the left side by subtracting 3.5x from 8x and end up with 4.5x=63 Then to get x by itself you would divide by 4.5 on both sides and end up with X=14 being your answer.

No she didnt. She needs 12% more of .8 yards.

How to find nth term of a sequence in math?

worty [1.4K]

Salutations!

To find the nth term, you will be needing a formula.

$a +(n-1) *d$

a stands for the first term (first number in the sequence)

d stands for the difference between two terms. (always remember to subtract from the 2nd term to the 1st term)

and the n is what we are going to find

so in your sequence: 5, 10, 15, 20

5 is a (as it is the first term)

d would be 5 ( 10 -5 =5)

$a+(n-1)*d$

$5+ (n-1) *5$

$5+5n-5$

$5n+0$

your nth term is $5n+0$

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!
