Answer:
-293
Step-by-step explanation:
The first term of the arithmetic sequence is a1 = 2. The common difference is d = -3-2 = -5. The general term is ...
an = a1 +d(n -1)
an = 2 -5(n -1)
The 60th term is ...
a60 = 2 -5(60 -1) = -293
Answer:
x<15, probably
Step-by-step explanation:
maybe multiply 2 to each side to eliminate the fraction. so 3x+15<60. subtract 15 to isolate the variable term so 3x<45. divide by 3 to isolate x so x<15. check the work. is the inequality true for all values of x less than 15? let's try the first possible integer value, 14, to be sure. 3(14)+15= 57. so 57/2<30. now 57/2 is 28.5 and 28.5<30 so it seems right
