Using the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence we can write:
80 + (n - 1)2 = 65 + (n - 1)5
80 + 2n - 2 = 65 + 5n - 5
3n = 18
n = 6
The answer is 6 months.

On the number line below, the letters a and b are the same distance from 0. What is a + b?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The answer here would be 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a and b are both equal distances from 0, then adding the together would equal 0. Since a is the inverse of b,  using any number and its inverse will show you why the answer is 0. For example, if b is 9 then a would be -9. Adding these together equals 0.

An irrational number between the 2 values would be √29

Enter this into ur calculator and you'll get an answer like 5.385164807  but this number  carries on beyond bounds and can't be written as a fraction a/b  It is irrational.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

One can be 95% confident that the drive-through service times of​ fast-food chain is between 169 seconds and 172 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval gives a range of value for the population mean or parameter, which is calculated from the statistic value of the data (that is sample statistic). This range gives the interval which is associated with a certain level of confidence for which the interval will contain the true value of the unknown parameter (true value). In the scenario above, the associated confidence level is 95%.Hence, we can be 95% confident that the true value will be continued with the interval (169 ; 172)
