Use the factor method and step by step
Answer:
3 over 2
Step-by-step explanation:
select 2 points on the line and see how far apart they are
The centroid divides the median into a 2:1 ratio. So, 9x-9=4x+16. We solve and get x=5. Therefore, OB is 36, and BE is half, 18.
Answer:
38
Step-by-step explanation:
We can express the 8th term as x and the 12th term as y.
This would mean that 8x=12y
Because the common difference between terms is -2 and term 8 and term 12 are 4 terms apart, this means that the 12th term is 8 less than the 8th term, so x-8=y
Now we can use this to substitute y with x in the first equation. This would give us:
8x=12(x-8)
Which we can expand and solve:
8x=12x-96
-4x=-96
Therefore x=24
This means the 8th term is 24 and the 12th term is 16 (24-8).
To test if this is correct we can do:
8x24=12x16
Which indeed are equal, both sides multiply to 192.
Now that we have our 8th term, we can find the 1st term, which is 7 terms away, therefore we just add 14 to the 8th term 24. (7x2=14)
24+14=38.
The first term is 38.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
y=-2x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-5=-2(x-1)
y=-2x+2+5
y=-2x+7
