Answer:

a_{12} = 34.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a_{70} = 121.5, then

a₁ + (69 × 1.5) = 121.5

a₁ + 103.5 = 121.5 ( subtract 103.5 from both sides )

a₁ = 18

Hence

a_{12} = 18 + (11 × 1.5) = 18 + 16.5 = 34.5

Answer:

12th term = 34.5

Step-by-step explanation:

l = a + (n-1)*d

d = 1.5

70th term = 121.5

a + 69 * 1.5 = 121.5

   a + 103.5  = 121.5

                 a = 121.5 - 103.5

                 a = 18

12 th term = 18 + 11 * 1.5 = 18 + 16.5 = 34.5

What’s is the radius of a circle with a area of 3.21 square feet
Rus_ich [418]

approx 1 foot

The area (A) of a circle = πr² ( where r is the radius)

thus r² = A/π ⇒ r = √(A/π = √(3.21/π) =1.0108..... ≈ 1 foot ( to 1 dec. place)

8 times the sum of a number and 26 is less than 304.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

x < 12

Step-by-step explanation:

So 8 times the sum of a number and 26 is less than 304. To find the number, lets write a equation where the "number" is x.
8 times the sum of a number and 26 can be written as 8 * x+26, however since the sum of x and 26 are being multiplied, we write this as 8(x+26). Since 8 times the sum of a number and 26 is less than 304, we set 8(x+26) to < 304. This gives us our equation:

8(x+26) < 304

Lets start to solve for x by dividing by 8, giving us:

x+26 < 38

Now lets isolate x by subtracting 26 from both sides, which gives us our answer:

x < 12

So x is less than 12.

Hope this helps!
