Answer:
<h2>n = 8</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to be Tn = a+(n-1)d
a = first term of the sequence
n = number of terms
d = common difference.
Given the first element a = 2 and 22nd to be 14
T22 = a+(22-1)d = 14
a+21d = 14
Substtuting a = 2 into the equation to get d
2+21d = 14
21d = 12
d = 12/21
d = 4/7
The nth term of the sequence given a = 2 and d = 4/7 will be expressed as;
Tn = 2+(n-1)4/7
Given Tn = 6
6 = 2+(n-1)4/7
6 = 2+4/7 n - 4/7
6-2+4/7 = 4/7 n
32/7=4/7 n
32 = 4n
n = 32/4
n = 8
4y=16
y is the variable. If you were to solve the equation you would write the equation as 4(4)=16.
Answer:
84
Step-by-step explanation:
80 + (80 * 5/100) = 84
simply take the 5% of 80 which is 4 and add it back to 80 which is 84
Hello! $800 was the past amount for rent and now it's $900. 900 - 800 is 100. that's a $100 difference. In order to find the percent increase in the rent, we can write and sovle a proportion. It would be set up as change/original = x/100, where change is difference between two numbers and original is the previous price. It would be set up like this:
100/800 = x/100
Let's crossmultiply the values. 100 * 100 is 10,000. 800 * x is 800x. That makes 10,000 = 800x. Now, divide each side by 800 to isolate the x. 800x/800 cancels out. 10,000/800 is 12.5 or 12.5%. Let's check this by multiplying by 112.5%. 800 * 112.5% (1.125) is 900. That's what we're looking for! There. x = 12.5%. The percent increase is 12.5%.
