a number y is 15 larger than a positive number x. if their sum is not more than 85, what are the possible values of y?​

y = x + 15 –(1)

x + y = 85

Putting (1)'s value,

x + x + 15 = 85

2x + 15 = 85

2x = 85 - 15 = 70

x = 70/2 = 35

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.

answer: it's d
