Answer:
a₁ = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
Given AP, where:
=============
<h3>Solution</h3>
aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d
- a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
- a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22
8a₈ = 12a₁₂
- 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
- 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
- 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
- 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
- a₁ = 38
Answer:
176
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find these kinds of problems, you need to divide the given number by the percentage in its decimal form.
25% = 0.25
44/0.25 = 176
To check your work, simply take the answer and multiply it with the percentage.
176*0.25 = 44
Your answer would be 4 you go with P.E.M.D.A.S so (5-1)= 4 then 4+4=8-4=4
Answer:
y= 19.5 x=33
Step-by-step explanation:
-x + 27= -6
(subtract 27 on both sides)
-x= -33
(divide by negative 1 on both sides)
x= 33
(substitute x into the first equation)
y= 1/2x + 3
y= 1/2(33) +3
y= 16.5 +3
y= 19.5
hope this helps :))
