<h3>Answer:</h3>

a_n = 23 +12(n -1)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is explicitly defined as a_n = a_1 +d(n -1) where a_1 is the first term of the sequence and d is the the common difference.

From the given first five terms of the sequence we can see that the first term is 23 so a_1 = 23.

The common difference, d, can be calculated by a_n - a_{n -1} so we'll find the common difference of the given sequence by letting n = 2

d = a_2 - a_{2 -1} \\d = a_2 -a_{1} \\d = 35 -23 \\ d = 12.

Now let's plug everything we know.

a_1 = 23

d = 12

a_n = 23 + 12(n -1)

What is the answer to - 5y = - 5 and. 7x +6y=7
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

(1/7, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

By "answer," you probably meant "solution."  What is the "solution of the system of linear equations

- 5y = - 5

+ 7x +6y=7

The first eqation can be solved for y:  y = 1.  Substitute 1 for y in the secon equation.  Then 7x + 6(1) = 7, or 7x = 1, or x = 1/7.

The solution to this system is (1/7, 1)
