Step-by-step explanation:

Question 8)
2,8,14
d=a2-a1
d=8-2=6
a77= 2+ (76)*6
a77= 2+456=458
a77= 458
Question 9)
-12,-17,-22
d= -17+12= -5
a82= -12+ (81)*(-5)= -12-405= 417
a82= 417
Question 10)
9,13,17
d= 13-9= 4
a49= 9+ (48)*4= 201
a49= 201
Answer written clearly above! Function notation is simply switching y to f(x).
Answer:2x4=10
2x4=10

Answer:
Everything should simplify down to -9a-3 (your answer)
Step-by-step explanation:
Distributive property is basically <em>multiplying the outside number into the inside</em> parenthesis (). Basically #(a)--->#a or #(a+b)---> #a+#b
Since you're not ask to solve for anything but simplify, just multiply 3 to -3a and -1.....
so 3*-3a is -9a and 3*-1 is -3 and you have 3(-3a-1)= -9a-3
Answer:
93 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
To cover his backyard with sod, he needs to cover the area of the backyard.
His backyard is a rectangle, and area of a rectangle is given as:

Where,
is the length, and
is the width
So, the area of Jim's backyard is
square yards.
The area of each sods are solved using the area of the rectangle formula. So we have
square yards as the area of each sod.
<em>To find </em><em>HOW MANY</em><em> of these sods we would need to cover the whole backyard, we divide the backyard area by each sod area:</em>
<em>
</em>
<u>Since, fractional sods can't be bought, Jim has to buy </u><u>93 sods</u><u> to cover his backyard.</u>
