A=lw
42xy^3=(14xy)l
isolate l
divide both sides by 14xy to isolate l
(42xy^3)/ (14xy)=14xy / 14xy *l
the 14xy in the right cancel out
now you have:
42xy^3/14xy=l
42/14= 3, now just do division of powers for xy
x-x =0x, y^3-y= y^2
therefore the answer is 3y^2
Actually, this answer would be true. Why?
The first equation is: a(sub <em>n</em>) = 8, 13, 18, 23
The second is: a(sub 1)=8 ; a(sub <em>n</em>)= a(sub <em>n</em>-1)+5
if you wish to find the second term, plug two into the equation for <em /><em>n</em>
8+5=13
to find the third, plug the second term, 13, in for <em>n.</em>
13+5=18.
Hope this helped! I know it's a bit on the late side, but at least you can get the general idea!
Answer:
$60
Step-by-step explanation:
Jason saved gas money (x). Maria saved $20 more than double what Jason has (20 + 2x). Combined, they saved $200. Solve for x for Jason's amount.
(x) + (20 + 2x) = 200
x + 20 + 2x = 200
3x + 20 = 200
3x + 20 = 200
3x + 20 - 20 = 200 - 20
3x = 180
3x/3 = 180/3
x = 60
Jason saved $60 for this trip.
