The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
a=first term
d=common difference
given:
a3=22
a(17)=-20
substituting this in our equation we get:
22=a+(3-1)d
22=a+2d
a=22-2d........i
also:
-20=a+(17-1)d
-20=a+16d.....ii
but substituting i in ii we get:
-20=22-2d+16d
-20-22=14d
-42=14d
d=-3
but:
a=22-2d
a=22-2(-3)
a=28
thus the formula will be:
an=28-3(n-1)
thus the first term will be 28
the 2nd term will be:
a2=28-3(2-1)
a2=25
the 3rd term will be:
a3=28-3(3-1)
a3=28-6
a3=22
a4=28-3(4-1)
a4=28-9
a4=15
a5=28-3(5-1)
a5=28-3(4)
a5=28-12
a5=15
Answer:
10 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 cups = 1 muffins
15/2 cups = x muffins
For x muffins,
3/4 × X = 15/2 × 1
3x × 2 = 15×4
6x = 60
Divide both sides by 6
6x/6 = 60/6
X = 10
Hence 10 batches of muffins will be made from 15/2 cups of nuts.
It's forming a circle so we know that together it's going to add up to 360. #1 is 66 because angle A trough E is straight and we have 90 on angle ACF and it's vertical to angle FCG. #2 is 125 because angle ACB is 24 because it's vertical to angle GCE. #3 is 114 because 90 and 24 is 114. #4 is 156 because 66 and 90 equal 156.
1. FCG = 66
2. BCD = 125
3. FCB = 114
4. ACG = 156
Answer:
x<5
Open circle at 5 going to the left
x >1
Open circle at 1 going to the right
Step-by-step explanation:
7x -19 < 16
Add 19 to each side
7x -19 +19< 16+19
7x< 35
Divide by 7
7x/7 < 35/7
x<5
Open circle at 5 going to the left
9+3x>12
Subtract 9 from each side
9-9 +3x >12-9
3x >3
3x/3 >3/3
x >1
Open circle at 1 going to the right
5/12 and 3/8 is the answer
