Answer:

The first one is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence. It has a common difference.

d = an - a_n-1

an = -12x + 12

a_n-1 = - 7x + 8

d = -12x + 12 - (-7x + 8)

d = -12x + 12 + 7x - 8

d = -5x + 4

Try  it. Let's try for the third term

-12x + 12 - 5x + 4

- 17x + 15 which is exactly what the third term is.

SSSSS [86.1K]

A function is  a relation that maps to each input value exactly one output value.

Given the function as {(0,1), (2,3), (5,8), (7,2)}, you can rewrite it

  • f(0)=1;
  • f(2)=3;
  • f(5)=8;
  • f(7)=2.

Now consider all options:

  1. the ordered pair (0,2) cannot be add to this function, because then f(0)=2, but you have already that f(0)=1 and output value should be one value;
  2. the ordered pair (5,3) cannot be add  to this function, because then f(5)=3, but f(5)=8 (given) and output value should be one;
  3. the ordered pair (7,0) cannot be add to this function, because then f(7)=0, but f(7)=2;
  4. the ordered pair (1,3) can be add to the set, because f(1)=3 is unique ordered pair (with 1st coordinate 1)

While shopping this week I misread my shopping list and bought 5 bread and 2 milk. I got a refund and bought 2 bread and 5 milk.
user100 [1]
Suppose  x is the total cost for the first purchase, cost of the bread = b and cost of the milk = m
Then:-
 y     =    5b + 2m
y - 4.2 = 2b + 5m
Subtract:-
4.2 = 3b - 3m
b - m = 4.2 / 3 = 1.4

That is bread costs $1.40 more than the milk.   (Answer).  Its A
