1. what is the first step in solving this equation? -5(x-4) + 3 = 4x-3
a subtract 3 from both sides
b divide by -5 on both sides
c distributive property
d combine like terms on both sides

parenthesis PEMDAS

Step-by-step explanation:

"(x-4)" B. divide by -5 on both sides.

idk sry

step-by-step explanation:

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.
