which sequences are arithmetic? check all that apply. –8.6, –5.0, –1.4, 2.2, 5.8, … 2, –2.2, 2.42, –2.662, 2.9282, … 5, 1, –3, –

In an arithmetic sequence, the next term is found by adding a constant term to each number to arrive at the next number. The common difference can be found by subtracting the first term from the second term.
-8.6, -5.0, -1.4, 2.2, 5.8....the common difference here is 3.6
-8.6 + 3.6 = -5.0
-5.0 + 3.6 = -1.4
1.4 + 3.6 = 2.2
2.2 + 3.6 = 5.8
so this IS an arithmetic sequence.
2,-2.2, 2.42, -2.662, 2.9282...there is no common difference..so this is not an arithmetic sequence
5,1,-3,-7,-11....common difference is -4
5 + (-4) = 1
1 + (-4) = -3
-3 + (-4) = -7
-7 + (-4) = -11
this IS an arithmetic sequence
-3,3,9,15,21...common difference is 6
-3 + 6 = 3
3 + 6 = 9
9 + 6 = 15
15 + 6 = 21
this IS an arithmetic sequence
-6.2, -3.1, -1.55, -0.775, -0.3875...this is not an arithmetic sequence
Its the third one for the answer
Starting off, we can multiply the third equation by 2 and add it to the third to get rid of both the x and y variables. Next, we get z=1. Plugging that into 3y-5z=-23, we get 3y-5=-23. Adding 5 to both sides, we get 3y=-18. After that, we can divide both sides by 3 to get y=-6. Plugging that into -2x-y-z=-3, we get -2x+6-1=-3=-2x+5. Subtracting 5x from both sides, we get -2x=-8. After that, we can divide both sides by -2 to get x=4.
Answer:
x=9, y=15. (9, 15).
Step-by-step explanation:
y=2x-3
y=x+6
----------
2x-3=x+6
2x-x-3=6
x-3=6
x=6+3
x=9
y=9+6=15
5x+5+65+65=
Answer:
x=-27
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find x right, so everything that does not have x you can move to the other side. 5x=-5-65-65. So that should be your equation so far. Now we know that when there are two negatives it is a negative and you add so -5-65=-70-65=-135. So your equation now should be: 5x=-135. Now we can divide -135 with 5 which gives us... -27! There’s your answer. Hope this was correct!
