Answer:
First term: 5
Fourth term: 5 1/2
Tenth term: 6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's find the first, fourth and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule:
A(n) = 5 + (n-1) (1/6)
First term:
A(1) = 5 + (1-1) (1/6)
A(1) = 5 + (0) (1/6)
A(1) = 5
Fourth term:
A(4) = 5 + (4-1) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + (3) (1/6)
A(4) = 5 + 3/6 = 5 3/6 = 5 1/2 (simplifying)
Tenth term:
A(10) = 5 + (10-1) (1/6)
A(10) = 5 + (9) (1/6)
A (10) = 5 + 9/6 = 6 3/6 = 6 1/2 (simplifying)
Answer:
One example of an equivalent ratio to 3/30 is 1:10.
D! all you have to do is switch the -9 and the z around! Good Luck!
