Answer:

first term of the pattern​ (T₁) : 10

Step-by-step explanation:

T₁  ;    1 ;    -6 ;   T₄ ;    -14  

1-T₁  ;  -6-1   ; T₄-(-6)  ; -14 -T₄    (First Tₙ-Tₙ₋₁)

-8+T₁  = T₄+13 = -2T₄-20            (2nd Tₙ-Tₙ₋₁ is constant)

T₄+13 = -2T₄-20          3T₄ = -33          T₄ = -11

-8+T₁  = T₄+13         -8 + T₁ = -11 + 13 = 2

T₁ = 10

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Equation:

21 = 1 + m

Solution:

20 = m

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

  • Karim drank 1 cup of milk at breakfast
  • Karim drank a total of 21 cups of milk
  • m = the amount of milk, in cups, Karim drank after breakfast

We know that Karim drank 21 cups of milk in a day. In an equation, that would look like this:

21 =

What does 21 equal?

The amount of milk Karim drank at breakfast plus the amount of milk Karim drank after breakfast.

21 = milk at breakfast + milk after breakfast

Let's substitute what we know into this equation:

21 = milk at breakfast + milk after breakfast

21 = 1 + m

Now that we have our equation, let's solve.

21 = 1 + m

-1    -1

20 = m

Therefore, Karim drank 20 cups of milk after breakfast.

I am needing to know the answer to 3/7 of what number is 9?
kolezko [41]
In math, "of" almost always means "times".

So your question is:  3/7 times (the number) = 9

Multiply each side of that equation by  7 :   3 times (the number) = 63

Divide each side by 3 :             <em> The number = 21</em>
