Answer:y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:yes firs multiply everything by -3 in parenthesies

Then you would subtract 15 from both sides

Next you would divide 9 by -3 and you would get -3

So y =-3

-3(y-5)=24
Distribute the -3 with the equation in the parentheses
-3y+15=24
Then take away the 15 from itself and 15 away from 24
-3y=9
Then you divide 9 by -3 which is -3.
y=-3

Given the sequence 8, 16, 32, 64, ..., which expression would give the thirteenth term?

mrs_skeptik [129]

8, 16, 32, 64,…
×2 ×2 ×2

$a_{n} = a_{1} * r^{n - 1}$
$a_{n} = 8 * 2^{13 - 1}$
$a_{n} = 8 * 2^{12}$
$a_{n} = 8 * 4096$
$a_{n} = 32768$

   First Term: 8
      Second Term: 16
      Third Term: 32
      Fourth Term: 64
       Fifth Term: 128
      Sixth Term: 256
   Seventh Term: 512
   Eighth Term: 1024
   Ninth Term: 2048
      Tenth Term: 4096
   Eleventh Term: 8192
   Twelfth Term: 16384
Thirteenth Term: 32768

$The\ expression\ that\ would\ give\ the\ thirteenth\ term\ of\ the\ problem\ would\ be\ the\ equation\ of\ the\ geometric\ sequence,\ which\ is\ equal\ to\ a_{n} = a_{1} * r^{n - 1}.$
