The 982 part seems wrong. Are you sure it isn't 981?

around 436 if I use 981 instead. 982 would give a decimal and that would be kinda weird for a part human.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can divide the 205 by 5 to simplify the ratio down. 205/5 = 41. Then you can multiply by 4 to find then number of boys.

981

So you can add the 5 and 4 together to 9 and then divide 981 by 9 to get 109. Then you can multiply by 4 to get 436.

Hope this helps!

Find the 6th term of the arithmetic sequence X – 9, -X – 11, -3.3 – 13, ...

Answer:

$-13x-23$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence: $x-9, -x-11, -3x-13$

Therefore,

$a_1=x-9$
$a_2=-x-11$
$a_3=-3x-13$

General form of an arithmetic sequence: $a_n=a+(n-1)d$

(where a is the first term and d is the common difference)

To find the common difference, subtract a term from the next term:

$\begin{aligned}d & =a_2-a_1\\ & =(-x-11)-(x-9)\\ & = -x-11-x+9\\ & = -2x-2\end{aligned}$

Therefore,

$a_n & =(x-9)+(n-1)(-2x-2)$

To find the 6th term, input n = 6 into the equation:

$\begin{aligned}\implies a_6 & =(x-9)+(6-1)(-2x-2)\\ & = (x-9)+7(-2x-2)\\ & = x-9-14x-14\\ & = -13x-23\end{aligned}$

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (5,3) and has a slope of -1/5 ?

deff fn [24]

Answer: y=-1/5x+4

Step-by-step explanation: use the equation y=mx+b (x,y)->(5,3) 5 is an x value and 3 is a y value so you want to plug in these values into the equation. 3=-1/5(5)+b. We already know our slope so just plug it into m. Now multiply -1/5 and 5 which is -1. 3=-1+b you want to isolate b so you can find the intercept. Add one to both sides so it cancels out. 4=b we found our y-intercept so we can write the equation now. y=-1/5x+4
