4th term = 29
to generate the terms, substitute n = 2, 3, 4 into the rule
noting that b(1) = - 7
b(2) = b(2 - 1) + 12 = b(1) + 12 = -7 + 12 = 5
b(3) = b(3 - 1) + 12 = b(2) + 12 = 5 + 12 = 17
b(4) = b(4 - 1) + 12 = b(3) + 12 = 17 + 12 = 29
Four ratios:
light to dark: 4:12
dark to light: 12:4
black to white: 2:4
white to gray: 4:10
gray to white: 10:4
any of those work.
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
x+5 = -3x+25
Add 3x to each side
x+3x+5 = -3x+3x+25
4x +5 = 25
Subtract 5 from each side
4x+5-5 = 25-5
4x = 20
Divide each side by 4
4x/4 = 20/4
x =5
