Answer:
an + 1 = an + 2n -1 ,a 1=1
a8= 50
Step-by-step explanation:
an+1=an+2n-1,a1=1
a6=a5+2x5-1
a6=26
a7=26+11
a7=37
a8=37+13
a8=50
If the equation is let's say 3x+ 7 +4x to combine like terms, you would take 3x and 4x since they both have x. You wouldn't take the 7 since it doesn't have and x like the other numbers. 3x +4x = 7x so your new equation would be 7x + 7.
1) y= -4x+c
2) y= 3x+c replace x and y to find c , 5=3(2)+c
C= -1
Y=3x-1
3) find slope first m=y2-y1/x2-x1 = 0-(-1)/-2-1 = 1/-3 and now you have y= -1/3x+c to find c just replace any of the given points , 0= -1/3(-2)+c
C= -2/3 and so y= -1/3x-2/3
4) DO THE SAME STEP AS NUMBER 3 and enjoy!
