Let

In order to prove this by induction, we first need to prove the base case, i.e. prove that P(1) is true:

So, the base case is ok. Now, we need to assume
and prove
.
states that

Since we're assuming
, we can substitute the sum of the first n terms with their expression:

Which terminates the proof, since we showed that

as required
Answer:
Slope: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
solution set is (x,y) = (7,6)
Step-by-step explanation:
solving by substitution method
2x +y=20--------------1
6x-5y=12---------------2
from equation 1, solve for y
2x+y=20
y= 20-2x------equation 3
adding value of y in equation 2
6x-5y=12
6x-5(20-2x)=12
6x-100+10x=12
16x= 12+100
16x= 112
x= 112/16
x=7
adding value of x in equation 3
y= 20-2x
y= 20- 2(7)
y=20-14
y=6
so solution set (x,y) = (7,6)
A(b) = 12(b + 9) / 2
12(b + 9) = 2 A(b)
b + 9 = 2 A(b) / 12 = A(b) / 6
b = A(b)
----- - 9
6
B(a) = a
-- - 9

It's C
Answer:
-7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(6−4)=3(6+2)
2(6x-4)=3(6x+2)
Solve
1
Distribute
2(6−4)=3(6+2)
{\color{#c92786}{2(6x-4)}}=3(6x+2)
12−8=3(6+2)
{\color{#c92786}{12x-8}}=3(6x+2)
2
Distribute
12−8=3(6+2)
12x-8={\color{#c92786}{3(6x+2)}}
12−8=18+6
12x-8={\color{#c92786}{18x+6}}
3
Add
8
8
to both sides of the equation
12−8=18+6
12x-8=18x+6
12−8+8=18+6+8
12x-8+{\color{#c92786}{8}}=18x+6+{\color{#c92786}{8}}
