the formula is a_{1}+(n-1) d
so a_{1} would be the first number in the sequence, which would be 13 in problem 9.
13+(n-1)d
then you put in n, which is 10 (it represents which number in the sequence you're looking for, for example 16 is the second number in the sequence)
13+(10-1)d
then you find the difference between each number, represented by d which in this case is 3
13+(10-1)3
13+(9)3
13+27=
40
36204 turns into 36200, and 40918 turns into 40920
Answer:
a = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
35 = -7a + 14
-14 + 35 = -7a + 14 - 14
21 = -7a
21/-7 = -7a/-7
-3 = a
a = -3
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
original quantity =12
new quantity =15
% increase= new-original/original *100
% increase= 15-12/12 *100
% increase= 3/12 *100
% increase=0.25 *100
% increase=25%
hence the increase is 25%
