Answer: The 25th term of the sequence is 75
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence depicts an arithmetic progression. The consecutive terms differ by a common difference. We will apply the formula for arithmetic progression.
Tn = a + (n-1)d
Tn = The value of the nth term of the arithmetic sequence.
a = first term of the sequence.
d = common difference (difference between a term and the consecutive term behind it)
n = number of terms in the sequence.
From the information given,
a = 3
d = 5-3 = 7-5 = 2
We want to look for the 25th term, T25
So n = 25
T25 = 3 + (25-1)2 = 3+ 24×2
T25 = 3 + 72 = 75
I do believe it would be 12 percent, if rounded.
The thief originally stole 64 plants.
<h3>What is arithmetic?</h3>
In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements.
Here,
Let the number of plants originally stolen by the thief be x.
On the way out, the thief meets three security guards, one after another. To each security guard, the thief is forced to give one-half of the plants that he still had, plus 2 more.
Here,
For gourd 1 the planet is given = 1/2 x
For gourd 2 the planet is given = 1/2 * 1/2 x = 1/4 x
For gourd 3 the planet is given = 1/2*1/4 x = 1/8 x
Total plant given to the gourds = 1/2x +1/4x +1/8x + 2 = 7/x/8x +2
Finally, the thief leaves the nursery with 10 plants
x - 7x/8 + 2 = 10
x/8 = 8
x = 64
Thus, the thief stole 64 plants.

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
according to sine rule,
sin(30)/8=sin(x)/11
solving above equation will give
x=43.3
