Answer:
y=-1.5x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
18y=12x-72
3y=2x-12
y=2/3x-4
Slope=-1.5
7=-6(-1.5)+b
7=9-2
Answer:
<u>x = -7.5 - 1.5(n−1) </u>
Step-by-step explanation:
the explicit formula for the arithmetic sequence has the form
x = a + d(n−1)
a is the first term and d is the common difference
The given arithmetic sequence is
-7.5,-9,-10.5,-12
The first term is -7.5
d = common difference = -9 - (-7.5) = -1.5
∴ x = -7.5 - 1.5(n−1)
You have to get r by itself on one side. Multiply both sides by 238 to cancel it out of the denominator on the left side.
You are left with r = 8 × 238 or r = 1904.
To check, plug 1904 back into the equation.
1904 ÷ 238 = 8
8 = 8 (True)
