Tn = a + (n-1)d
when n = 12, tn = 63
63 = a + (12-1)*5
a = 63 - 55 =8
tn or an
= 8 + (n-1) 5
= 3 + 5n
Hope this helps
Answer:
y=-2x-13
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-13)=-2(x-0)
y+13=-2x
y=-2x-13
Answer:
9 cans of soup and the 4 frozen dinners were purchased
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cans of soup purchased.
Let y represent the number of frozen dinners purchased.
Lincoln purchased a total of 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners. This means that
x + y = 13
Each can of soup has 250 mg of sodium and each frozen dinner has 550 mg of sodium. The 13 cans of soup and frozen dinners which he purchased collectively contain 4450 mg of sodium. This means that
250x + 550y = 4450 - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 13 - y into equation 1, it becomes
250(13 - y) + 550y = 4450
3250 - 250y + 550y = 4450
- 250y + 550y = 4450 - 3250
300y = 1200
y = 1200/300
y = 4
Substituting y = 4 into x = 13 - y, it becomes
x = 13 - 4 = 9
Answer:
x = ±4 (x = 4 and x = -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x²-16 = x²+32
3x²-16 = 32
3x² = 48
x² = 16
x = ±4
Therefore, x = 4 and x = -4
A vertical stretching is the stretching of the graph away from the x-axis.
A vertical compression is the squeezing of the graph towards the x-axis.
A compression is a stretch by a factor less than 1.
For the parent function y = f(x), the vertical stretching or compression of the function is a f(x).
If | a | < 1 (a fraction between 0 and 1), then the graph is compressed vertically by a factor of a units.
If | a | > 1, then the graph is stretched vertically by a factor of a units.
For values of a that are negative, then the vertical compression or vertical stretching of the graph is followed by a reflection across the x-axis.
Thus, the equation with the widest graph is 0.3x^2.
