Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • x - y = 6
  • x/y = 2

<u>Solve for x in the second equation.</u>

  • x/y = 2
  • => x = 2y

<u>Solve for any variable in the first equation.</u>

  • x - y = 6
  • => 2y - y = 6
  • => y = 6

<u>Solve for x using the result obtained from the second equation.</u>

  • x = 2y
  • => x = 2(6)
  • => x = 12

The numbers are 12 and 6.

Alika [10]

Answer:

a. it is arithmentic - this is because for each term there is a constant increase of 4, and the change between each term <u>doesn't change</u>

b. you need to find the nth term, by using the equation difference x n + 0th term: the difference is (+)4 and the 0th term is -9 (-5 is the 1st term, so to go one back we subtract 4 - the inverse operation), so the nth term is 4n -9. Now we do the inverse operation on 119 to see if it's a term (it is a term if it's an integer. So, first we do 119 <u>plus</u> 9 (inverse of - 9) to get 128, then divide it by 4 rather than multiplying. This gives us 32, and that tells us that 119 is the 32nd term of the sequence.
