Here, it helps to find a general expression for the nth term in the
sequence. Since the sequence is arithmetic, the general term is a_n = a +
bn, where b is the common difference. By inspection of the first few
terms we see the common difference is -4. Then by solving a_1 = a - 4x1 =
5, we obtain a = 9, so the nth term is: a_n = 9-4n. We then solve
a_n=-111 for n, so 9-4n=-111. Rearranging, we get 4n=9+111, or 4n=120,
or n=30. Thus there are 30 terms in the sequence.
Answer:
4th option
Step-by-step explanation:
-2a^2-a
3 x 14 = 42
42 + 5 = 47
47/14 is your answer

30000 due at the end of 60 years
I'll assume that the number of days in year is 360
I=30,000×0.05×(60÷360)=250
Cash in hand at the beginning of 60 days is
30,000−250=29,750
The effective rate is
R=I÷pt
R=250÷(29,750×(60÷360))
R=0.0504×100
R=5.04%
