Using the arithmetic formula a1 + (n-1) d, a1 being the first term, n being the number you’re looking for and d being the common difference, you will get the answer of -57.
Here’s the work:
27 + (29 - 1) -3
27 + (28) -3
-57
Using a system of equations, it is found that Charlie won $270.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable x: Amount earned by Linda.
- Variable y: Amount earned by Charlie.
Linda won $10 less than three times as much as Charlie, hence:
x = 3y - 10
Linda won $800, hence the amount won by Charlie is found as follows:
800 = 3y - 10
3y = 810
y = 810/3
y = 270

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, divide.
This equals:
Hope this helps!
For large sample confidence intervals about the mean you have:
xBar ± z * sx / sqrt(n)
where xBar is the sample mean z is the zscore for having α% of the data in the tails, i.e., P( |Z| > z) = α sx is the sample standard deviation n is the sample size
We need only to concern ourselves with the error term of the CI, In order to find the sample size needed for a confidence interval of a given size.
z * sx / sqrt(n) = width.
so the z-score for the confidence interval of .98 is the value of z such that 0.01 is in each tail of the distribution. z = 2.326348
The equation we need to solve is:
z * sx / sqrt(n) = width
n = (z * sx / width) ^ 2.
n = ( 2.326348 * 6 / 3 ) ^ 2
n = 21.64758
Since n must be integer valued we need to take the ceiling of this solution.
n = 22
3/4 mile is 0.75 mile per minute
There are 60 minutes in one hour
0.75 times 60 equals 45 miles
