We are given the arithmetic series 2, 1 3/5, 1 1/5.. In this case, the arithmetic difference is -2/5 by taking the difference of 2 and 1 3/5 and 1 3/5 and 1/5. The general formula of arithmetic sequence is an = a1 + d*(n-1). Substituting, an = 2 -2/5*(n-1). a25 hence is equal to a25 = 2-2/5*(25-1) = -38/5
Answer:
3.140
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. 20 min and 15 sec
2. 4 min and 30 sec
3. y=80x-20
4. the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
1. in 2 min you have 25 g
in 15 sec you loose 2.5 g
2. in 4 min you have 5 g
in 30 sec you loose 5 g
3. y=45x-10
y=80x-20
4. it takes 2 min and 15 sec to empty the first one and 3 min to empty the second one.
This can get confusing. Sorry if it doesn’t make a lot of sense. I will explain #3
1) You first have to look at the equation. It says 100 acres to 140 acres. From that information you should know that the number increases, so the percent will be over 100.
2)to set the equation up you do
X
__ =
100
Since every percent is out of 100.
3) Now you have to put the numbers in the equation. Since the original number is 15, so you would put it on the bottom and 18 on top.
X 18
__ = __
100 15
Then you times across
15x=1800
To find x (the percent) you divide both sides by 15
15x 1800
__ = __
15 15
X=120%
It would be increased
