This is a geometric sequence with first term a1 = -4 and common ratio r = 4
so nth term = a1* r^(n-1)
= -4 *4^(n-1)
-1-4x+7x=1x+4x
-1-4x+7x=1x+4x
-1+-4x+7x=x+4x
(-4x+7x)+(-1)=(x+4x)
3x+-1=5x
3x-1=5x
3x-1-5x=5x-5x
-2x-1=0
-2x-1+1=0+1
-2x=1
-2x/-2=1/2
x=-1/2
Answer:
y = x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line y = x goes through the origin, and forms a perfect 45 degree angle with the x axis.
This is that same line, moved upward 1 unit, so the y value comes out 1 unit more.
Also, in y = mx + b form (slope-intercept form), we see slope m = 1 and y-intercept b = 1, so
y = 1x + 1 = x + 1
y = x + 1
