Answer:

21 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

So we would start by setting up an equation like x + x = 57 only we know that the larger number is 15 more than the smaller number so we would change it to x + x+15 = 57 so 2x + 15 = 57. Now simply solve and 2x = 42. Divide and x is equal to 21 so the smaller number is 21. The larger number is 15 more than the small so 15 + 21 is equal to 36. The two numbers would be 21 and 36.

C(n)=-6(-1/3) n-1 what’s the 2nd term in the sequence
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The second term is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

C(n)=-6(-1/3) n-1

The first term of the sequence

C(1) = -6(-1/3)1-1

C(1) = (2)-1

C(1) = 1

C(n)=-6(-1/3) n-1

The second term of the sequence

C(2) = -6(-1/3)2-1

C(2) = -6(-2/3)-1

C(2) = 4-1

C(2) = 3
