What is the 25th term of the arithmetic sequence where a1=8 and a9=48 ? answers to choose from. a)113. b)118. c)123. d)128

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: First we need to find "d" which is difference between any 2 successive members of the sequence. Because the sequence is arithmetic that means that the difference between any 2 successive members is same and constant.

This is the formula for any member of sequence at position "n"
An = A1 + (n-1)*d
d = (a9 - a1)/(9-1)
d = 5

Now we calculate 25th member:
a25 = a1 + (25-1)*5
a25 = 128

Answer is d)

This system has one solution. What is the y-coordinate of the solution? y = 5x - 9
y = x^2 - 3x + 7

Answers

set 5x-9 = x^(2) - 3x + 7
⇒ 0 = x^(2) - 8x + 16
⇒ factoring we get... 0 = (x-4)² so the x-coordinate for the solution is x = 4
To find the y-coordinate, plug x = 4 into one of the equations (you can plug it into both just to make sure you're right).
y = 5x - 9 plug in x = 4 ⇒ y = 5(4) - 9 = 20 - 9 = 11
y = x^(2) - 3x + 7 plug in x = 4 ⇒ y = (4)² - 3(4) + 7 = 16 - 12 + 7 = 11
∴ The solution to the system is (4, 11) which has y-coordinate 11.
