2 3/4 + 1 5/8 + 1 5/8 =
2 + 1 + 1 = 4 (add the whole numbers)
3/4 + 5/8 + 5/8 = 6/8 + 5/8 + 5/8 = 16/8 = 2 (add the fractions)
4 + 2 = 6 total lbs
5.40 for 6 lbs = 5.40/6 = 0.90 (so the apples cost 90 cents per lb)
Step 1: Substitute the value of x into the equation
x= 3-3/2y
-3x+5y=10
Step 2: Solve the equation
-3(3-3/2y)+5y=10
Step 3: Substitute the value of y into the equation
Y=2
Step 4: Solve the equation
X=3-3/2×2 = X=0
Answer: (0,2)
I'm assuming that you are talking about sequences <3
In the context of a recursive formula where we have "n-1" in sub-index of "a", you can think of "a" as the previous term in the sequence. In the context of an explicit formula like "-5+2(n-1)" "n-1" represents how many times we need to add 2 to the first term to get the nth term.
Dw if you don't understand, sequences and functions isn't an easy topic
Value of the CD after 3 months is given by 300(1 + 0.03 / 4) = 300(1 + 0.0075) = 300 x 1.0075 = $302.25.
Therefore, interest for 3 months = $302.25 - $300 = $2.25
