The answer is B
- <span>"More" means added to, or addition. So 7 more than 'A number' is: </span><span>d + 7</span>
3x - 2 = x + 10
So, 2x = 12 and x = 6

Answer:
5) 729, an=3^n, a[1]=3; a[n]=3·a[n-1]
6) 1792, an=7(4^(n-1)), a[1]=7; a[n]=4·a[n-1]
Step-by-step explanation:
The next term of a geometric sequence is the last term multiplied by the common ratio. (This is the basis of the recursive formula.)
The Explicit Rule is ...

for first term a₁ and common ratio r.
The Recursive Rule is ...
a[1] = a₁
a[n] = r·a[n-1]
__
5. First term is a₁ = 3; common ratio is r = 9/3 = 3.
Next term: 243×3 = 729
Explicit rule: an = 3·3^(n-1) = 3^n
Recursive rule: a[1] = 3; a[n] = 3·a[n-1]
__
6. First term is a₁ = 7; common ratio is r = 28/7 = 4.
Next term: 448×4 = 1792
Explicit rule: an = 7·4^(n-1)
Recursive rule: a[1] = 7; a[n] = 4·a[n-1]
Hi!
Our goal is to isolate x on one side by doing the same operation on both sides.
First let's use the distribution property.
-2 x 6 = -12
-2 x 3 = -6
-12x - 6 = -27 - 5x
Add 6 to both sides
-12x - 6 + 6 = -27 + 6 - 5x
-12x = -21 - 5x
Add 5x to both sides
-12x + 5x = -21 - 5x + 5x
-7x = -21
Divide by -7 on both sides
-7x/-7 = -21/-7
x = 3
The answer is x = 3
Hope this helps! :)
