N= numerator
D= denominator

N:D ==> 2:3

2:3, 4:6, 6:9... And so on...

The pattern here is that the numerator increases by 2 and the denominator by 3. Easy right?

Now 5 is added to the "n".

Now it is N:D ==> 3:2

3:2, 6:4, 9:6... And so on...

The pattern here is inverted then the 2:3 one.

If I'm right then which one (you might have to continue the process/pattern) then one of them will increase by 5.

3 => 2 = +1 (2+1=3)
6 => 4 = +2 (4+2=6)
9 => 6 = +3 (6+3=9)
12 => 8 = +4 (8+4=12)
15 => 10 = +5 (10+5=15)
18 => 12= +6 (12+6=18)

Q. Which one is +5?

A. 15:10

That is what "I" think it is.

Now, the question is,
Does it work? Does it fit the above description?

Q. Does it even work? Does it fit the above description?

The first two terms of an arithmetic sequences are 7 and 3.
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

1.1.1) -61

1.1.2) Term 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Tn= dn (difference) + t0 (term 0)

Tn= -4n+ 11

You can now take this general rule to find out the other terms.

Tn= -4(18)+11

Tn= -61

And the term -157

Tn= -4n+11

-157= -4n + 11

-157 - 11= - 4n

-168= -4n

-168/-4= n

42= n

You have a credit card with a balance of 1187.92 and the interest is 12.25% apr. a late fee of 30.00 is charged for payments aft
Travka [436]
We start with
$1,187.92
With the interest and the late fee charge
$1,187.92 (1 + 0.1225/12) + 30 = $1,230.05
With the interest minus the payment of $125
$1,230.05 (1 + 0.1225/12) - $125 = $1,117.60

The new principal after the latest payment is $1,117.60.
