So first you distribute the 5 to the x and the +2 and get
5x+10=3(x+8)
 then you distribute the 3 to the other x and the +8 and get
5x+10=3x+24
subtract 3x from both sides
2x+10=24
subtract 10 from both sides and get
2x=14
divide both sides by 2 and get
x=7

D(n)=6-4(n-1) Find the fifth term in the sequence
LiRa [457]

Answer:

5th term: -10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the nth term in the sequence, you can substitute n into the equation:

d(n) = 6 - 4(n - 1)

Since we want the 5th term, we substitute 5:

d(5) = 6 - 4(5 - 1)

d(5) = 6 - 4(4)

d(5) = 6 - 16

d(5) = -10

Are the lines 2y-10x=4 and y-2=5x parallel ??
aleksandrvk [35]
Well,

If the slope of the lines are the same, then the lines are parralel.

We need to manipulate 2y - 10x = 4 into y = mx + b form.

Add 10x to both sides
2y = 10x + 4

Divide both sides by 2
y = 5x + 2

Do the same thing with the other equation.

Add 2 to both sides
y = 5x + 2

y = 5x + 2

It appears that, not only are they parallel, but they lie on exactly the same line! If this was a System of Simultaneous Linear Equations, then there would be an infinite number of solutions!<span />
