Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We first have to write the equation for the sequence, then finding the first five terms will be easy. Follow the formatting:
and we are given enough info to fill in:
and
and
or in linear format:
where n is the position of the number in the sequence. We already know the first term is -35.
The second term:
so
and
The third term:
and
so
and we could go on like this forever, but the nice thing about this is when we know the difference all we have to do is add it to each number to get to the next number.
That means that the fourth term will be -27 + 4 which is -23.
The fifth term then will be -23 + 4 which is -19. You can check yourself by filling in a 5 for n in the equation and solving:
and
so
Let price of one scarf be $x
Price of the other is 3 more than $x
Therefore price of the other scarf =$x +3
The total price she paid = $25.00
That is, x+x+3=25
2x+3=25
2x=25-3
2x=22
x=22/2
x=11
The price of one scarf is $11 and the price of the other is 11+3=$14
The price of the expensive scarf =$14.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
2(10 -6x)=x -8x
20 - 12x = x - 8x
20 = x - 8x + 12x
20 = 5x
20 / 5 = x
x = 4
