Answer:
2 is -1/3
3 is -6
4 is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 is 7x + 8x = 3x - 4
3 is 5x + (-3) = 2x + (-15)
4 is -4x + 17 = 6x -3
Answer:
40% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find the value decrease of the item from yesterday to today
$65 - $39 = $26
That means that $65 was 100% of the price and decreasing it by 26 gets us to 39
We need to find the percentage of 39 in 65
39/65 = 0.6 or 60%
If 39 is 60% of 65, then there was a 40% decrease form 100%
To check we can calculate the percentage of 26 in 65:
26/65 = 40%
There was a 40% decrease

Answer:
The first term is 3. The common difference is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term is x.
The common difference is d.
The second term is x + d.
3rd term: x + 2d
4th term: x + 3d
7th term: x + 6d
"The fourth term of an Arithmetic Sequence is equal to 3 times the first term"
x + 3d = 3 * x Eq. 1
"the seventh term exceeds twice the third term by 1"
x + 6d = 2(x + 2d) + 1 Eq. 2
Simplify Eq. 1:
2x = 3d
Simplify Eq. 2:
x + 6d = 2x + 4d + 1
x = 2d - 1
Multiply both sides of the last equation by 2.
2x = 4d - 2
2x = 3d (simplified Eq. 1)
Since 2x = 2x, then the right sides are equal.
3d = 4d - 2
d = 2
2x = 3d
2x = 3(2)
2x = 6
x = 3
Answer: The first term is 3. The common difference is 2.
