15x-6+x-3=39
16x-9=39
16x=39+9
16x=48
x=48/16
x=3
Answer:
x = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Rearrange terms
2x - 1 = 5 - 6x
2x - 1 = -6x + 5
2. Add 1 to both sides of the equation. We want to get rid of -1.
2x -1 = -6x + 5
+1 +1
-------------------------
2x = -6x + 6
3. Simplify.
2x + 6x = 6
8x = 6
6/8 = 3/4
Then, the answer is 3/4.
Hope this helps.
To find the 50th term in this sequence, first you need to find how what the sequence is. To get from 5 to -2 you're subtracting 7, to get from -2 to -9, you subtract another 7. In order to get the next number you go down by multiples of 7: 5 - 7 = -2; 5 - 14 = -9 and so on). So all you have to do is multiply 7 by 50 to get 350 and subtract that from 5 to get -345.
