Answer:
A: an = 6n - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
third term in an arithmetic sequence is 9
a3 = a + 2d
a + 2d = 9
the fifth term is 21
a5 = a + 4d
a + 4d = 21
a + 2d = 9 (1)
a + 4d = 21 (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate a
4d - 2d = 21 - 9
2d = 12
d = 12/2
d = 6
Substitute d = 6 into (1)
a + 2d = 9 (1)
a + 2(6) = 9
a + 12 = 9
a = 9 - 12
a = -3
nth term of this sequence = a + (n - 1)d
= -3 + (n - 1)6
= -3 + 6n - 6
= 6n - 9
an = 6n - 9
Then it is likely that the amount of mice will decrease and either keep going down because the organism is eating them off too quickly or stay at a medium rate
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the questions is "What's x" then the answers is...
Use SOH CAH TOA to recall how the trig functions fit on a triangle
SOH: Sin(Ф)= Opp / Hyp
CAH: Cos(Ф)= Adj / Hyp
TOA: Tan(Ф) = Opp / Adj
use CAH
Cos(x) = 46/60
x = arcCos(46/60)
x = 39.9445 °
2.1x + 4.2y = 14.7 is the same as x + 2y = 7 (divide both sides by 2.1)
-5.7x-1.9y=-11.4 is the same as 3x + y = 6 (divide both sides by -1.9)
Rearrange the first equation to get x = 7 - 2y and substitute into the second equation, 3(7 - 2y) + y = 6, 21 - 6y + y = 6, 5y = 15, y = 3
Substitute y = 3 into the first equation x + 2(3) = 7, x = 1
x = 1 and y = 3
