For this case, the arithmetic sequence is given by:
 an = 17n-1
 Let's check it:
 First week:
 n = 1:
 a1 = 17 (1) -1
 a1 = 17-1
 a1 = 16
 Second week:
 n = 2:
 a2 = 17 (2) -1
 a2 = 34-1
 a2 = 33
 Third week:
 n = 3:
 a3 = 17 (3) -1
 a3 = 51-1
 a3 = 50
 Answer:
 
the explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence that defines the number of boxes of cereal sold in week n is:
 
an = 17n-1

Answer:

£15.7

Step-by-step explanation:

32 cans x 50P = 1600p

1600p to Pounds = £26.66 (1600 divided by 60)

Remaining cans = 18 (50 - 32)

18 cans x 20p = 360p

360p to Pounds = £6 (360 divided by 60)

£26.66 + £6 = £32.66

£32.66 (Profit) - £17 (Cost of cans) = £15.66

15.66 to 3SF = 15.7

How does 1/8 divided by 1/4 equal 1/2?
photoshop1234 [79]
When you divide a fraction by a fraction, you're really just multiplying by a reciprocal. A reciprocal is the fraction flipped around.
So, 1/8 <span>÷ 1/4 is the same thing as 1/8 x 4/1
Now, you just multiply. 1 times 4 is 4. 8 times 1 is 8.
1/8 x 4/1=4/8
4/8 simplified is 1/2
So that is how 1/8</span><span>÷1/4=1/2</span>
