The first term is -43.
Explanation:
an = a + (n - 1)d
a12 = a + 11d = 56, first equation
a21 = a + 20d = 101, second equation
Subtract the second equation from the first equation, cancelling +a and -a
11d - 20d = 56 - 101
-9d = -45
d = 5
Subtitute d into the first equation
a + 99 = 56
a = -43
a refers to the first term, hence the first term is -43.
Answer:I believe the answer is c. not sure tell me if im wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that x and y vary directly then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition x = 25 when y = 100 , then
100 = 25k ( divide both sides by 25 )
4 = k
y = 4x ← equation of variation
When y = 24 , then
24 = 4x ( divide both sides by 4 )
6 = x
