The answer is 4. 3 busses would carry 180, so you gotta have that one extra bus. The question is set up to kind of throw you off but it's quite simple
Step-by-step explanation:
sum of the arithmetic sequence
a1 = 8
a2 = a1 + 8 = 8+8 = 16
...
an = 8×n
the sum of the first n elements of such a series is
n/2 × (2×a1 + (n - 1)×d]
with d being the difference between 2 consecutive elements (= the added constant).
so,
s30 = 30/2 × (2×8 + 29×8) = 15×(31×8) = 3720
Answer:
I think the answer is 26.5
