Answer:

A = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8a-4=-10a+50

8a-4+4=-10a+50+4

8a=-10a+54

8a+10a=-10a+54+10a

18a=54

54 / 18 = 3

<u>A = 3</u>

The answer would be a=3. to put it more clear, multiply the number outside of the parenthesis. so for example 4•2a is 8a, and 4•-1 is -4. since the -4 has no variable, it would just be 8a-4. next, the -10 times a positive a would be -10a. a positive times a negative is negative. next, do -10•-5 which is positive 50. remember, a negative times a negative is positive! after this, take the 8a-4=-10a+50 and add the constant and the variable (-10a) by the 8a. ALWAYS go right to left when subtracting or adding. you should get 18a. so 18a-4=50. take the negative four and add a positive four because you need to make the sides equal, add the four to 50, and you should get 18a=54. lastly, 54/18 is 3! so, A=3

Javier has a job installing windows. He earns a rate of $75 per day plus $8 per window installed. He also receives a stipend of
vichka [17]
75d+8w+25
Part A)
75 and 8 are coefficients because coefficients are the numbers before and multiplied to the variable.
d and w are variables because variables aresymbols to represent the unknown numbers.
25 is the constant because constants are not affected by the variable.
Part B)
75d+8w+25
75(5)+8(48)+25 replace the variables
375+384+25      multiply
        784                add
Part C)
No, because his stipend is a constant, and constants are not affected by the variable.

What is the answer to 3/4 +1/3
Elis [28]
Well, to add fractions, you need to find a common denominator. In this case, the smallest common denominator would be 12. So you must multiply each fraction so that both denominators are 12.
3/4*3/3=9/12
1/3*4/4=4/12
Add those two fractions together, reduce if possible, and you have your answer!
9/12+4/12=13/12
You can't reduce, so 13/12 is your answer.
Hope it helps!

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

A recursive formula allows any term in the sequence to be found by adding the common difference d to the previous term.

Here d = - 4 , then recursive formula is

a_{n} = a_{n-1} - 4 with a₁ = 2

(b)

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 2 and d = - 4, thus

a_{n} = 2 - 4(n - 1) = 2 - 4n + 4 = 6 - 4n ← explicit formula

(c)

Using the recursive formula

a₁ = 2

a₂ = 2 - 4 = - 2

a₃ = - 2 - 4 = - 6

Using the explicit formula

a₅ = 6 - 4(5) = 6 - 20 = - 14

a₁₀ = 6 - 4(10) = 6 - 40 = - 34

a₁₀₀ = 6 - 4(100) = 6 - 400 = - 394
