Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule. A(n) = –3 + (n – 1)(–2.2)

1 answer:

7 0

A(n) = a1 + (n - 1) * d
A(n) = -3 + (n - 1) * -2.2
n = term to find
a1 = first term = -3
d = common difference = -2.2

we can already see that the first term is -3 <==

4th term..
A(4) = -3 + (4 - 1) * -2.2
A(4) = -3 + 3(-2.2)
A(4) = -3 - 6.6
A(4) = - 9.6 <== 4th term

10th term...
A(10) = -3 + (10 - 1) * -2.2
A(10) = -3 + 9 * - 2.2
A(10) = -3 - 19.8
A(10) = - 22.8 <===10th term

damaskus [11]

Answer:

If she buys a boat without a down payment, then the affordable price is 5,700.

Her bank charges 5% interest per year.

Let, payment = p,

p = 250(\frac{1-(1+\frac{0.05}{12})^-24}{\frac{0.05}{12}})

p = 5698.47

After round off p = 5700

A bag contains 9 red tiles, 10 blue files, and 6 green tiles. A tile is randomly drawn from the bag. Which statement is true?

stepan [7]

Answer: A. The probability of drawing a red tile is 36% and the probability of NOT drawing a red tile is 64%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red tiles = 9

Number of blue files = 10

Number of green tiles = 6

Total number of tiles = 9 + 10 + 6 = 25

Probability of drawing red tile = 9/25 = 0.36 = 36%

Probability of drawing blue tile= 10/25 = 0.40 = 40%

Probability of drawing green tile = 6/25 = 0.24 = 24%

Based on the explanation above, the correct answe is option A "The probability of drawing a red tile is 36% and the probability of NOT drawing a red tile is 64%".
