I don't think you're stupid. ^^
Let's take the third term, 8. If n=3, then an should be 8.
The first answer gives 15+2.5*3=22.5.
The second answer gives 15.5+2.5=23.
The third answer gives 15-2.5*3=7.5.
The fourth answer gives 15.5-2.5*3=8.
Choice 4 is correct.
Let's try to actually find the equation on our own.
The equation for an arithmetic series is an=a0+dn where a0 is the term that comes before the first term.
The first term given is 13 and it decreases by 2.5 each time so n=-2.5 and the term that would be before 13 is 15.5.
Thus the equation is an=15.5-2.5n

Answer:
26 1-foot squares of silver paper.
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimensions of the bulletin board are 6.5 feet by 4 feet.
To determine how many squares of silver paper she needs to but, we first determine the area of the bulletin board.
Area of the board =6.5 X 4= 26 Square feet
Therefore, Mrs Golden needs to buy <u>26 1-foot squares of silver paper.</u>
There will be <u>no pieces left over</u> as there is no decimal or fractional value in the area of the bulletin board.
Where’d the rest of the question?
