Answer: -30 -5x
Step-by-step explanation:
(-5 times 6) = -30
(-5 times x)= -5x
you could write it as -30 + -5x or -30 -5x it’s the same thing
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Recursive Sequence
We are given the following sequence:
-1, 1, 5, 13...
It's required to find the recursive term for the sequence.
A recursive formula calculates each term as a function of one or more previous terms.
To find the recursive formula, we must find a pattern and transform it into a math expression.
Let's write the sequence, and below it, the difference of consecutive terms:
-1, 1, 5, 13...
+2, +4, +8
Note the difference between consecutive terms is always a power of 2, starting from 2^1, 2^2, 2^3.
The exponent is one less than the number of the term, thus:
Thus:
Testing:
n=1

Hope this helps you out :D
It’s 2 equations so in order to solve the previous system, you can use different methods, as for example substitution or addition of equations. In this case, you use the second one, due to the fact you have 7x in one equation and -7x in the other equation. In this way you can easily eliminate variable x and then solve for y. With the value of y you can replace in any of the two equations and solve for x.
7x-y=-1
-7x+3y=-25
Summarizing, you proceed as follow:
- add up the given equations
7x - y = -1
-7x+3y=-25
——————
0 +2y=-26
- solve for y in the previous equation
2y=-26
y=-26/2
y=-13
- replace the obtained value of y in one of the given equations, and solve for x
7x-(-13)=-1
7x+13=-1
7x=-1-13
7x=-14
x=-14
x=-14/7
x=-2
Hence, the solution of the given systems of equation is:
X=-2
Y=-13
Rules: (-) plus (-) equals positive.
Anything negative in absolute value will turn positive. Example, | -2 | —> 2
|-4b-8|+|-1 -b^2| +2b^3; b=-2
First step is substituting all the “b” to -2.
|-4(-2) -8| + |-1 -(-2)^2| +2(-2)^3
Then start solving.
|8-8| + |-1 -(4)| +2(-8)
|0| + |-5| -16
0 +5 -16= -11
Answer: -11
