Answer:

<h2>n = 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to be Tn = a+(n-1)d

a = first term of the sequence

n = number of terms

d = common difference.

Given the first element a = 2 and 22nd to be 14

T22 = a+(22-1)d = 14

a+21d = 14

Substtuting a = 2 into the equation to get d

2+21d = 14

21d = 12

d = 12/21

d = 4/7

The nth term of the sequence given a = 2 and d = 4/7 will be expressed as;

Tn = 2+(n-1)4/7

Given Tn = 6

6 = 2+(n-1)4/7

6 = 2+4/7 n - 4/7

6-2+4/7 = 4/7 n

32/7=4/7 n

32 = 4n

n = 32/4

n = 8

One month,ruby worked 6 hours more than Isaac, and Svetlana worked 4 times as many hours as ruby. Together they worked 126 hours
Misha Larkins [42]
I + 6 = r

4r = s

i + r + s = 126

4i + 24 = 4r

s= 4r

i = r-6

4i+24=i+6
-3i=18

i = 6

Round each whole number to the given place value.
Kazeer [188]

We have to round each whole number to the given place value.

We have to round the number 437 to the tens place.

Since the digit at the tens place is 3.

Since the digit at its previous place that is ones place is '7' which is greater than 5.

Therefore, we can round the number 437 to 440.

Now, consider the another number 64,328, we have to round this number to the nearest ten thousand place.

Since the digit at ten thousands place is 6.

And the digit at its previous place that is, at thousands place is 4.

Since this number is less than 5.

Therefore, the given number will round to 60,000.
