Answer:

-32, -7, 18 and

127, 106, 85

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the following formula to solve this:

a_{n} = a_{1} + (n - 1)d

a is the nth term in the sequence. So at the 3rd term, n = 3

a₁ is the first term in the sequence. In your first question, a₁ is -32. In your second, a₁ is 127.

(n - 1) represents the term before a, or the term before the current term. So at the 3rd term, (n - 1) = 3-1, which is 2.

d represents the common difference between terms. Aka what you add or subtract to a term to get the next one.

For the first question, you know a₁ and d, so you can substitute them into the equation to find the second and third terms:

a = -32 + (n - 1)25

You also know (n-1), because a is 2 when you're looking for the second term. So (n-1) = 2-1, which is 1. So put that in the formula and simplify:

a = -32 + (1)25

a = -32 + 25

a = -7

The second term is -7. To find the 3rd term, do the same thing.

a = -32 + (n - 1)25

(n-1) is 2, since you're on the third term and n is 3.

a = -32 + (2)25

a = -32 + 50

a = 18

So the first 3 terms are -32, -7, and 18.

For the second one, the formula looks like this:

a = 127 + (n - 1)-21

The first term is 127. Find the 2nd (n is 2):

a = 127 + (1)-21

a = 127 -21

a = 106

Then find the 3rd term (n is 3)

a = 127 + (2)-21

a = 127 -42

a = 85

So the first 3 terms are 127, 106, and 85.

Answer:

- 32, - 7, 18 and 127, 106, 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the common difference d to the previous term

(1)

a₁ = - 32

a₂ = a₁ + 25 = - 32 + 25 = - 7

a₃ = a₂ + 25 = - 7 + 25 = 18

The first 3 terms are - 32, - 7, 18

(2)

a₁ = 127

a₂ = a₁ + d = 127 - 21 = 106

a₃ = a₂ + d = 106 - 21 = 85

The first 3 terms are 127, 106, 85

I need help with 5 and 6
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

w = 6

RS = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

RS + ST = RT

(2w + 1) + (w - 1) = 18

3w = 18

; w = 6

Hence the value of RS = 2(6) + 1

; RS = 13

AC = AB + BC

56 = (x + 16) + (5x + 10)

56 = 6x + 26....then rearrange the equation to form...;

56 - 26 = 6x

30 = 6x...

where...; x = 5

AB = 5 + 16 and BC = 5(5) + 10

;AB = 21 ;BC = 35

BlackZzzverrR [31]
If you have a graphing calculator one way to know you are right is put the left side in Y1 and the right side in Y2 then hit 2nd trace and intersection then find the intersection and the X value is your answer. If you don't have a graphing calculator then I'm sorry
