The formula for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence first term is 9 common difference is -2
Yanka [14]

Answer:

a_n = 9 - 2(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and is called common difference.

The nth term is given by the following equation:

a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d

In which a_1 is the first term and d is the common difference.

First term is 9 common difference is -2

This means that a_1 = 9, d = -2

So, the nth term is given by:

a_n = a_1 + (n-1)d

a_n = 9 + (n-1)(-2)

a_n = 9 - 2(n-1)

Which equation is not a linear equation? Question options: a) –4v + 2w = 7 b) x4= y c) x = -5 d) 2x + 3y = 5
Semmy [17]

Answer: Option b

x^4= y

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equations have the following form:

a_1x^n + a_2y^m + a_3w^s + a_4v^h = b

Where the exponents n, m, s and h are always 0 or 1

To know which equations are nonlinear, identify among the options given, those that have exponents other than 1 or 0

Note that in option b) the exponent of the variable x is n = 4 therefore the equation is nonlinear

Finally the answer is the option b
