A) 2x -3(3x -7) = 7 . . . . substitute for y
.. -7x = -14 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 21
.. x = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -7
.. y = 3*2 -7 = -1 . . . . . . substitute for x
(x, y) = (2, -1)
B) 5(5x -2y) -2(3x -5y) = 5(8) -2(1) . . . . subtract 2 times 2nd equation from 5 times 1st
.. 19x = 38 . . . . simplify
.. x = 2 . . . . . . . divide by 19
.. y = (5x -8)/2 = 1 . . . . solve 1st equation for y, substitute x
(x, y) = (2, 1)
C) See the first graph.
(x, y) = (-4, 1)
D) See the second graph.
(x, y) = (3, 2)
No, the given sequence is not an arithmetic sequence.
What is Arithmetic Sequence ?
An arithmetic sequence is a list of numbers with a definite pattern. If you take any number in the sequence then subtract it by the previous one, and the result is always the same or constant then it is an arithmetic sequence.
In the above question,
The sequence is 3,5/2,3/2,-3/2,...
Take the 2nd term and minus the 1st term.
Now take the 3rd term and minus the 2nd term.
We can clearly notice that the differences are not same. Hence there is no common difference and therefore it's not an arithmetic sequence

<h3>Trina uses 3.44 or

pints of white paint</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Trina uses 8.6 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls
3/5 of the amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint
From given,
3/5 of 8.6 pints is blue paint

Thus, 2/5 of 8.6 pints is white paint
<em><u>How many pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?
</u></em>

Thus she uses 3.44 or 17.2/5 pints of white paint
Answer:
2(x+5)*(x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
