A 4-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled x. Column 2 is labeled y. Column 3 is labeled x + y = 56. Column 4 is labeled 2 x minus 7 = y. All rows are blank. Using the guess and check technique, find two numbers that satisfy both conditions. The sum of the two numbers is 56. The second number is seven less than two times the first number. What is the value of the first number, x? 19 21 31 35

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.
