If you could put in the tablet.
But the equation would be: a_n = a_1 (r)^(x-1)
with a_1 being the first category
r being 5 how much brighter than the day before is
and x is what nr. in the sequence it is
But I'm not sure as I cannot see the table
The value of y can be calculated by translating the equation such that we solve y in terms of x.
-3x - 8y = 10
-8y = 10 + 3x
y = (10 + 3x) / -8
Then, we substitute 2 to the x in the equation.
y = (10 + 3(2)) / - 8 = 16/-8
y = -2
Thus, the value of y in the equation is -2.
Answer: 9 people are left at the party
Step-by-step explanation:
There was originally 8 females and 12 males
8-2 = 6
Twice the males as females
9 men leave which leaves 3 men and 6 women which is twice as many men
Hope this helps!
