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

Tony’s class needs more than $500 for the school dance. So far, they have raised $200. They plan to have a car wash, charging $8
anzhelika [568]
<h2><em><u>PLZ MARK BRAINLIEST</u></em></h2><h2><em><u></u></em></h2>

No, he is not correct for if they washed 37 cars they would have made a total of 296 dollars washing cars. Because this is an inequality, he needs to get a value equal too or greater than 300 dollars on car washes. Also, because he already has 200 dollars collected, you could write the inequality as "8x is greater than or equal to 300".

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: I am not sure exctly what the question is here but if you are wondering how many butterflies tatal for all species here it is:

North American Butterfrlies: 30

South American Butterflies: 18

Europe Butterflies: 12


Step-by-step explanation: To get the total number of butterflies per species you need to mulitply to find the correct ratio given the total number of North American Butterflies is 30

North American Butterflies to South American Butterflies is 5 to 3 so 30/5=6, you then multiply 3*6 to get 18 South American Butterflies.

Then since we now know there are 18 South American Butterflies and the ratio of those to Europe Butterflies are 3 to 2 we take 18/3=6, then multiply 2*6 to get 12 Europe Butterflies.
