A(n) = a(n-1)+9 means that we add 9 to the previous term to get the next term. Therefore the common difference is d = 9 this sequence is arithmetic.
The first term is a(1) = 21
Plug those two values into the arithmetic formula below and simplify
a(n) = a(1) + d * [ n - 1 ]
a(n) = 21 + 9 * [ n - 1 ]
a(n) = 21 + 9*n + 9*(-1)
a(n) = 21 + 9n - 9
a(n) = 9n+12
Answer is choice D
1.5x + 0.2y = 2.68....multiply by 0.3
1.6x + 0.3y = 2.98...multiply by - 0.2
------------------------
0.45x + 0.06y = 0.804 (result of multiplying by 0.3)
- 0.32x - 0.06y = - 0.596 (result of multiplying by - 0.2)
----------------------add
0.13x = 0.208
x = 0.208/0.13
x = 1.6
1.5x + 0.2y = 2.68
1.5(1.6) + 0.2y = 2.68
2.4 + 0.2y = 2.68
0.2y = 2.68 - 2.4
0.2y = 0.28
y = 0.28/0.2
y = 1.4
solution (they intersect at) (1.6,1.4)
Answer:
1.8
Step-by-step explanation:
If we know Xin ordered 5 identical pieces of bread, this must mean that each one weighs the same
By dividing the 9 pounds with 5 (the amount of bread) we will get 1.8
So each bread is 1.8
but if u want to check the answer then we can multiply 1.8 with the 5 loaves of bread and it will result in 9
Answer:
the numbers are 31 and 14
Step-by-step explanation:
since the larger number is 17 more than the smaller number,
larger number= x
smaller number= x-17
x-17+x=45
2x=45+17
2x=62
x=31
x-17=31-17
Answer:
260 nesting turtles were at this sanctuary last year
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The number of nesting turtles decreased = 10%
Number of turtles present in sanctuary this year = 234
To Find:
Number of nesting turtles present at this sanctuary last year= ?
Solution:
Let the number of nesting turtles present at this sanctuary last year be x
Then,
x- 10% of x = Number of turtles present in sanctuary this year
x- 10% of x = 234
x= 260
