Answer: (3,4)

multiply both sides of the top equation by 2

get rid of the x variable by subtracting add all corresponding numbers and variables (4+(-4), -4+7, -4+16) which leaves you with 3y=12

divide both sides by 3 which cancels out the 3y and leaves you with y=4

input y in your top equation to find x. (-2x+2x4=2)

this leaves you with x=3

I HOPE THAT MADE SENSE!!!

H^-16/h^x=1/h^24 can someone help me please

Basile [38]

Given:

Consider the equation is

$\dfrac{h^{16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}$

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

$\dfrac{h^{-16}}{h^x}=\dfrac{1}{h^{24}}$

Using properties of exponents, we get

$h^{-16-x}=h^{-24}$ $[\because \dfrac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n},a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]$

On comparing both sides, we get

$-16-x=-24$

Add 16 on both sides.

$-x=-24+16$

$-x=-8$

Multiply both sides by -1.

$x=8$

Therefore, the value of x is 8.

Suppose an=3an-1 -5an-2 -4an-3. and a4= -7, a5=-36, a6=-85 , find a1 , a2, a3

maria [59]

Answer:

$a_1=4\\\\a_2=0\\\\a_3=3$

Explanation:

The equation is:

$a_n=3a_{n-1}-5a_{n-2}-4a_{n-3}$

and

$a_4=-7, a_5=-36, a_6=-85$

<u>1. Subsittute n = 6 into the equation:</u>

$a_6=3a_{5}-5a_{4}-4a_{3}$

Now subsititute the known values:

$-85=3(-36)-5(-7)-4a_{3}$

You can solve for $a_3$

$-85=-108+35-4a_{3}\\\\4a_3=12\\\\a_3=12/4\\\\a_3=3$

<u />

<u>2. Substitute n = 5 into the equation:</u>

$a_5=3a_{4}-5a_{3}-4a_{2}$

Substitute the known values and solve for $a_2$

$-36=3(-7)-5(3)-4a_{2}\\\\4a_2=-21-15+36=0\\\\a_2=0$

<u>3. Substitute n = 4 into the equation, subsitute the known values and solve for </u> $a_1$ <u />

$a_4=3a_{3}-5a_{2}-4a_{1}$

$-7=3(3)-5(0)-4a_{1}\\\\4a_1=9+7=16\\\\a_1=4$
