She eats 10 her first week so she eats 3 pieces for the next six weeks (3 each week)
10 + 3(6) = 28
10+3+3+3+3+3+3=28
7th term is 28
Arithmetic sequence

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Michelle likes chocolate but it causes acne. She chooses to limit herself to three pieces of chocolate every week.

Except the first week, when she eats ten pieces.

This table below shows the chocolates totally she has eaten after each week upto 7 weeksI week = 10\\II week = 10+3 = 13\\III week=10+3+3 =16\\...Vii week = 10+3+3..+3 (6 times) =28

Thus we find that this is a sequence which increases by a constant difference 3.

Hence this is an arithmetic sequence.

I term = 10 and common difference = 3

Hence nth term

a_n=10+(n-1)3 =3n+7\\a_7 =10+(7-1)3 = 28

A rectangle has a width of 10 feet and a length of 40 feet. What is the length of the side of a square with the same area?
never [62]
First find the area of the rectangle: 10 * 40 = 400

Now, since the square has the same area, we'll find the side lengths of the square by just finding the square root of 400 which is 20. You can do this with a calculator. So the side length of any side on the square is 20.

to fill a coffee mug at a local shop costs $2.50. the shop sells coffee beans foe $12 per pound. each pound makes enough coffee
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

There are a few possible answers so read explanation, but the one I will put up here is:

20.83

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find how much 100 cups of coffee costs in store.

To do this you will multiply 2.50 by 100 and get 250. So now we know 100 cups of coffee in store costs $250 whereas 100 cups at home is $12.

To find how many times greater the price in store is compared to the at home brew, you have to divide 250 by 12 and get 20.8333333....

We don't stop there though, because it asks us to approximate. I am not sure what it would like us to round to, but here are some possible approximations:

  1. 20.83
  2. 20.8
  3. 21

Any of those re reasonable approximations, you choose whichever you think the question wants, or whatever your teacher asks for.

Hope this helps
