Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:
* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100
* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i
It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.
* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54
* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54
The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a + (n - 1)d
where a is the first term and d the common difference
Here a = 13 and d = - 2.5, thus
= 13 + (28 × - 2.5) = 13 - 70 = - 57
