In an arithmetic sequence, the next term is found by adding a constant term to each number to arrive at the next number. The common difference can be found by subtracting the first term from the second term.
-8.6, -5.0, -1.4, 2.2, 5.8....the common difference here is 3.6
-8.6 + 3.6 = -5.0
-5.0 + 3.6 = -1.4
1.4 + 3.6 = 2.2
2.2 + 3.6 = 5.8
so this IS an arithmetic sequence.
2,-2.2, 2.42, -2.662, 2.9282...there is no common difference..so this is not an arithmetic sequence
5,1,-3,-7,-11....common difference is -4
5 + (-4) = 1
1 + (-4) = -3
-3 + (-4) = -7
-7 + (-4) = -11
this IS an arithmetic sequence
-3,3,9,15,21...common difference is 6
-3 + 6 = 3
3 + 6 = 9
9 + 6 = 15
15 + 6 = 21
this IS an arithmetic sequence
-6.2, -3.1, -1.55, -0.775, -0.3875...this is not an arithmetic sequence
Answer:
-9
Its in the format y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the intercept. Also since x is 0 at the y intercept, you could substitute 0 for x and see the intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
10/15 divided by 5 = 5/10
