Given two terms in an arithmetic sequence find the term named in the problem.
11) a^12 = 93 and a^31 = 226 Find a^53
12) a^13 = -29 and a^36 = -144 Find a^5

answer: i believe its b. if you sound out the sentences that sounds wrong.

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
