96

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to see how the pattern is increasing.

How did the sequence of numbers get from -3 to 6?

Try adding first.

To get from -3 to 6, add 9.

Move on to the next nunber.

Can we get from 6 to -12 through the same pattern (adding 9)?

No, so addition is not the pattern.

Next try multiplication.

To get from -3 to 6, multiply -2.

Move on to the next number.

Can we get from 6 to -12 through the same pattern (multiplying by -2)?

Yes!

Check the other numbers.

-12 × -2 = 24

24 × -2 = -48

Do they meet the pattern?

Yes!

To find the next number in the sequence, use the pattern: multiply the previous number by -2.

-48 × -2 = 96

hi,

i'm 75% sure the answer is 1,1 to both lines.

have a great day

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
