Yes I got an A in college algebra...
Answers:
first term = 37
second term = 46
third term = 55
fourth term = 64
==========================================
Explanation:
Start at 37. Add 9 to this term to get the second term. Add 9 to that result to get the next term, and so on.
first term = 37
second term = 37+9 = 46
third term = 46+9 = 55
fourth term = 55+9 = 64
-----------
The nth term formula is
a(n) = 9n+28
It can be found by plugging a = 37 and d = 9 into the general form
a(n) = a + d*(n-1)
Answer: f(12) = 137, f(-7) = 42
Step-by-step explanation: In a function, what you want to do is plug in the value they give you for x. This means you substitute x with the value they are looking for.
In this case, they are looking at 12 and -7. Let's do 12 first.
The equation becomes (12^2) - 7. 12^2 is 144, and 144-7 is 137.
Now we do -7. The equation becomes (-7)^2 - 7. -7^2 is 49, and 49 - 7 is 42.

And it goes on
Equation: -1/2x + 1 = -x + 8
Work:
-x/2 + 1 = -x + 8
1 - x/2 = -x + 8
1 - x/2 = 8 - x
2 - x = 16 - 2x
-x = 16 - 2x - 2
-x = 2x + 14
-x + 2x = 14
x = 14
Final Answer:
x = 14
