Answer:
a₅ = 37
Step-by-step explanation:
The term to term rule ' subtract 3 ' is the common difference d of an arithmetic sequence with n th term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₁₂ = 16, then
a₁ + 11d = 16 ← substitute d = - 3
a₁ + 11(- 3) = 16
a₁ - 33 = 16 ( add 33 to both sides )
a₁ = 49 , then
a₅ = 49 + (4 × - 3) = 49 - 12 = 37
12 ten dollar bills and one 5 dollar bill. just divide 125 by $10
Answer:
(-3,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
9x+8y=-19
7x+9y=-12
I'll assume the question is to find the solution to these equations. The solution will be the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. The intersection is the one point that satisfies both equations (the smae value of (x,y) works in both.
We can either solve matematically of graph to find the intersection. I'll do both, and hope the answers are identical.
<u>Matematically</u>
Rearrange either equation to isolate one of the variables (either x or y). I'll take the second and isolate x:
7x+9y=-12
7x = -9y - 12
x = (-9y - 12)/7
Now use this definition of x in the other equation:
9x+8y=-19
9((-9y - 12)/7) + 8y = -19
(-81y - 108)/7 + 8y = -19
-81y - 108 + 56y = - 133
-25y = -25
<u>y = 1</u>
If y = 1, then:
9x+8y=-19
9x+8(1)=-19
9x = -27
<u>x = -3</u>
<u></u>
<u>The solution is (-3,1)</u>
<u>Graphing</u>
<u></u>
Graph both lines and look for the intersection. The attached graph shows the lines cross at (-3,1).
The solution, bu both approachjes, is (-3,1)
