Hello!
if x = -3, just substitute it for x (replace the x with -3)
2(-3) + 6 = 0
2 * -3 = -6
-6 + 6 = 0
I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
The answer to this problem is the letter "A" which is "Multiply by 3, then add 2"
and can be written a N = 3n + 2
At first, we have initial value such n = 1
Then the second value is:
N = 3*1 + 2
N = 5
The third value is:
N = 3*5 + 2
N=17
The next values are:
N = 3*17 + 2
N= 53
The letter "A" is the inductive reasoning to the given sequence.
Use a system of equations
C+P=1132
3P=C
Substitute C in first equation as
3P+P=1132
Simplify
4P=1132
Solve
P=1132/4
P=283
NOW SOLVE FOR C SUBSTITUTING P VALUE IN FIRST EQUATION
C+283=1132
C=1132-283
C=849
Printer = 283$
Computer = 849$
Answer: 85
Add up all the numbers: 97+70+89+99+100+78+79+89+77+72=850
Divide 850 by the amount of numbers:
850/10=85
I hope this helps and good luck! :)
