Answer:

-293

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term of the arithmetic sequence is a1 = 2. The common difference is d = -3-2 = -5. The general term is ...

an = a1 +d(n -1)

an = 2 -5(n -1)

The 60th term is ...

a60 = 2 -5(60 -1) = -293

Write the ratio 42 inches to 9 feet as a fraction in simplest form. Explain why you get the same result whether you convert feet

V125BC [204]

Let's convert one of these numbers:
1 foot = 12 inches

9 feet were 9*12=108 inches

so the ratio would be 42: 108

or we can simplify it: divide by 2:
21:54

divide by 3:
7:18

A ratio always stays the same no matter the unit or currency, so it doesn't matter which unit we convert it to.

Answer:

Slope-intercept: y=3/4x+1

Sorry idk how to do general form

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, m being the slope, b being the y-intercept.

The slope of this graph is 3/4, and the y-intercept is 1.
