Answer:
x = 11
y = 2
n = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Three equations
Look for x
Look for y
Look for n

Note that all of these are questions can be answered through isolating the variable.
Let's start with x :
Get x alone :
2(x + 5) = 3x + 1
Distribute :
(2(x) + 2(5))
2x + 10 = 3x - 1
Add 1 to both sides of the equation :
2x + 11 = 3x
Subtract 2x from both sides :
11 = x
x = 11
Next is y :
Isolate y :
3y - 4 = 6 - 2y
Add 4 to both sides :
3y = 10 - 2y
Add 2y to both sides :
5y = 10
Divide 5 from both sides to get y by itself :
y = 2
Lastly is n :
Isolate n :
3(n + 2) = 9(6 - n)
Distribute :
(3(n) + 3(2)) = (9(6) - 9(n))
3n + 6 = 54 - 9n
Subtract 54 from both sides :
3n - 48 = -9n
Subtract 3n from both sides :
-48 = -12n
-12n = -48
Divide -12 from both sides :
n = 4
Answer:
The sum of the first 5 terms is -244
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the sum of the geometric series, we need the first term, the common ratio and the number of terms we would like to sum.
The first term here is -4
The common ratio is T2/T1 or T3/T2 = 12/-4 = -3
number of terms n = 5
The formula to use is;
Sn = a(1-r^n)/(1-r)
Plugging these values, we have;
Sn = -4(1-(-3)^5)/(1-(-3))
Sn = -4(1+243)/4 = -1(244) = -244

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 300
Step-by-step explanation: 25 times 12 = 300. 20 times 12 = 240. 5 times 12 = 60. 60 + 240 = 300
