Answer:
For an nth term U(n) = a + (n - 1)d
n = number of terms
a = first term
d = common difference
a = 5
d = 2 - 5 = - 3
U(n) = 5 + (n -1)-3
= 5 - 3n + 3
= 8 - 3n
The formula for the sequence is 8 - 3n
Hope this helps
Answer:
0.25 (inches?)
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation is:
y=mx+b
y is the length of her hair, the dependent variable, the outcome
m is the slope, which is in this case the growth of her hair in a month
x is the independent variable, or the number of months
b is how long her hair is to start with, which is 12 in
we are looking for m, which is the growth of her hair per month, which is given as 0.25 inches, so that would be the answer
Sounds to me as tho you are to graph 3x+5y<10, and that after doing so you are to restrict the shaded answer area created by the "constraint" inequality x≤y+1. OR x-1 ≤ y OR y≥x-1. If this is the correct assumption, then please finish the last part of y our problem statement by typing {x-y<=1}.
First graph 3x+5y = 10, using a dashed line instead of a solid line.
x-intercept will be 10/3 and y-intercept will be 2. Now, because of the < symbol, shade the coordinate plane BELOW this dashed line.
Next, graph y=x-1. y-intercept is -1 and x intercept is 1. Shade the graph area ABOVE this solid line.
The 2 lines intersect at (1.875, 0.875). To the LEFT of this point is a wedge-shaped area bounded by the 2 lines mentioned. That wedge-shaped area is the solution set for this problem.
