First term is -7, so a_1 = -7
To get the next term, we add on 4. We can see this if we subtract like so
d = (2nd term) - (1st term) = (-3) - (-7) = -3+7 = 4
So d = 4 is the common difference.
Apply a_1 = -7 and d = 4 to get...
a_n = a_1 + d*(n-1)
a_n = -7 + 4*(n-1)
a_n = -7 + (n-1)*4
Answer: Choice A
Given parameters:
Weight of Tan = 146pounds
Unknown:
Weight of Minh = ?
Following this problem step wisely, we can derive a solvable algebraic equation;
Let the weight of Minh = M
In the second sentence, we see that Minh weighs 15pounds more than Tan;
So;
M = 15 + Weight of Tan
Since we already know the weight of Tan,
Weight of Minh = 15 + 146 = 161pounds
We clearly see that Minh's weight will be 161 pounds.
Answer:
The winter solstice is the day of the year with the least amout of daylight hours.
change yrds to ft
5yds = 5*3 = 15 ft
5yds 2 ft = 15ft + 2ft = 17 ft
6yds = 6 * 3 = 18 ft
6 yds 1 ft = 18 + 1
19 ft
A = l * w
A = 17* 19
A = 323 ft^2
Choice A
A b c d... and x are all representing 1 unknown #. The particular letter
is not revelent unless its like f (x) =.... which just means y but g(x) sometimes means graph.
otherwise it doesn't matter at all
