n  = unknown number

5 less than 4 times a number = 4n-5

2 more than 3 times a number = 3n+2

 so you have 4n-5 = 3n +2

add 5 to both sides:

4n=3n+7

subtract 3n from both sides:

n = 7

Is the sequence 5,9,15———-an arithmetic?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

No, the given sequence is not arithmetic.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

5,9,15,....

The first term is 5.

A sequence is an arithmetic, if the difference between any two consecutive terms are same.

The difference between terms are

d_1=9-5=4

d_2=15-9=6

d_1\neq d_2

Since the difference between consecutive terms are not same, therefore given sequence is not arithmetic.

Answer:

slope = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = - 1, 22) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 14) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table

m = \frac{14-22}{1-(-1)} = \frac{-8}{2} = - 4

Use the distributive property to write an expression that is equivalent to 1/2 (8y + (-x) + 12)
melomori [17]

Algebra

\frac{1}{2} (8y - x + 12) = a

Divide everything by two, or times everything by 1/2.

4y -  \frac{1}{2} x + 6 = a

This is as far as you could go due to no like-terms.

Match each system of linear equations with the correct number of solutions
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Hey there!

The first equation has no solutions, as it is parallel lines.

The second equation has infinitely many solutions, as it is basically the same line, and the two lines intersect at infinite points.

The third equation is just one solution.

Let me know if this helps :)
