2 times a number minus 9 is less than or equal to 21. and in inequality form that’s: 2x - 9 >_ 21 and u make a number line and a closed circle on 15 and an arrow going right. i hope i understood your question right
The answer is an equilateral triangle
Answer:
A: an = 6n - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
third term in an arithmetic sequence is 9
a3 = a + 2d
a + 2d = 9
the fifth term is 21
a5 = a + 4d
a + 4d = 21
a + 2d = 9 (1)
a + 4d = 21 (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate a
4d - 2d = 21 - 9
2d = 12
d = 12/2
d = 6
Substitute d = 6 into (1)
a + 2d = 9 (1)
a + 2(6) = 9
a + 12 = 9
a = 9 - 12
a = -3
nth term of this sequence = a + (n - 1)d
= -3 + (n - 1)6
= -3 + 6n - 6
= 6n - 9
an = 6n - 9
I think it's a pattern, so x would be 3 and y would be 5 for the first one
x would be 20 for the second
and i dont even do word problems so...
