Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The 7th term of an AP is 4 and its common difference is -4. The 7th term of an arithmetic progression is written as:

a + 6d = 4

where,

a = first term

d = common difference= -4

a + 6d = 4

a + 6(-4) = 4

a - 24 = 4

a = 4 + 24

a = 28

The first term is 28.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears

Step-by-step explanation:

I + P = 9

0.5l + 1.5P = 9.5

I = 9 - P

0.5(9 - P) + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5-0.5P + 1.5P = 9.5

4.5 + P (1P) = 9.5

P = 9.5-4.5 = 5

I = 9 - 5 = 4

Answer: 4 pounds of lime and 5 pounds of pears

What is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (7, 5)(7, 5) and (−4, −1)(−4, −1) ? y+4=116(

Alex Ar [27]

(7,5)(-4,-1)
slope = (-1-5) / (-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 6/11
(-4,-1)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -1
now we sub...pay close attention to ur signs
y - (-1) = 6/11(x - (-4) ...not done yet...
y + 1 = 6/11(x + 4) <===
