Hi!
<u>Given these two equations:</u>
We want to solve using the substitution method. Knowing that x is equal to y + 8, we can simply plug in 'y + 8' in for x in the second equation, like so:
Combine like terms on both sides:
Subtract y from both sides:
Subtract 8 from both sides:
Now, we can simply plug the y value in to the first equation, and solve for x:
Simplify:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The recursive rule tells you the initial term of the sequence is a1 = -3, and the common difference is d=7. (7 is the value added to one term to get the next term.)
Putting these values into the formula for the explicit rule gives ...
an = a1 +d(n -1)
an = -3 + 7(n -1)
Answer:
D. 11.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The missing length of the right angled triangle can be calculated using Pythagorean Theorem as shown below:
Where,
a = x cm
b = 11 cm
c = 16 cm
Thus:
(nearest tenth)
