Step-by-step explanation:
<h3><u>QU</u><u>ESTION</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
<u>Fin</u>d 26th term of the A.P --15,-35,-55,-75...
<h3><u>Solu</u><u>tion</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>
First term=a=-15
Common Difference=d=-20
We know that






The answer is 3.66 (it’s a positive number because the two negatives cancel each other out)
Write the decimal number as a fraction
(over 1)
35.375 = 35.375 / 1
Multiplying by 1 to eliminate 3 decimal places
we multiply top and bottom by 3 10's
<span>= 35 3/8</span>
Since you are solving for x, you need to isolate x on one side of the equation. Start by subtracting C from both sides.
0 = x + a / b - C
Subtract x from both sides to have it on the left side of the equation.
-x = a / b - C
Make x a positive number by dividing both sides by negative one.
x = - a / b + C
A better way of writing this answer would be:
.
Answer: x^2 + 3x - 4
Explanation: I used desmos to double check! This should be right :)
