N = 3  ( the next number is 3 plus the previous number
 sequence formula = an = 3(n-1) +2

so for term the term that =59

59 = 3(n-1) +2

distribute:
59 = 3n -3+2

59 = 3n -1

60 = 3n
n = 60/3
n = 20

59 is the 20th term

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

the first field (rate 3/4) has 32 square yards and the second field (rate 2/3) has 24 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the statement we can make a system of 2x2 equations, where:

"x" is the area of the first field

"y" is the area of the second field

However,

x + y = 56 => x = 56 - y

3/4 * x + 2/3 * y = 40

replacing we have:

3/4 * (56 - y) + 2/3 * y = 40

42 - 3/4 * y + 2/3 * y = 40

-0.0833 * y = 40 - 42

y = -2 / -0.0833

y = 24

now for x:

 x = 56 - 24

x = 32

This means that the first field (rate 3/4) has 32 square yards and the second field (rate 2/3) has 24 square yards.
