Answer:
$3.93 or 393 pennies
Step-by-step explanation:
every 100 pennies is a dollar

Given:
The sum of the first three terms of a sequence Is 42.
The fourth term is 24.
To find:
The u₁ and the common difference
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term of a sequence is

where, u₁ is first term and d is common difference.
4th term is 24.

...(i)
Sum of nth term of an AP is
![S_n=\dfrac{n}{2}[2u_1+(n-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2u_1%2B%28n-1%29d%5D)
Sum of first three terms is 42.
![S_3=\dfrac{3}{2}[2u_1+(3-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_3%3D%5Cdfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%5B2u_1%2B%283-1%29d%5D)
![42=\dfrac{3}{2}[2u_1+2d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=42%3D%5Cdfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%5B2u_1%2B2d%5D)
Divide both sides by 3.
...(ii)
On subtract (ii) from (i), we get


Put d=5 in equation (ii).
Therefore, the first term is
and common difference is
.
It will take 15 weeks for both Jon and Matt to weigh the same.
Given:
Jon : 148 lbs and gain 2lbs a week
Matt : 193 lbs and lose 1lb a week
Find the number of weeks until they both weigh the same.
Jon = Matt
148 + 2w = 193 - 1w
2w + 1w = 193 - 148
3w = 45
w = 45/3
w = 15
To check:
148 + 2(15) = 193 - 1(15)
148 + 30 = 193 - 15
178 = 178
