Answer:
The first term is 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
The general formula for this kind of sequence (arithmetic) is a(n) = a(1) + (n-1)c, where c is the common difference. Here, we have a(6) = -1 = a(1) + (6-1)(-3), or -1 +15 = a(1). The first term is 14.

I’m not sure I would help you if knew
To solve the food one you need to first multiply the pounds of peaches by the amount per pound (1.75 * 18.4) then when you have the total of that, add 2.89 for the price of the pineapple. Once that is complete you should have a total amount for all of the food, next you just divide that number by 4 and you'll have the amount of money each person paid.
As for the other question, to solve it all you need to do is add the total amount of pounds of trash team A has collected for both week 1, 2 and 3, then multiply it by 3 and you'll have your answer.
Answer: 64.29%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total earnings of the Lee family in May be x
Amount earned by Mr Lee in May = 60% of x = 0.6x
Amount earned by other family members in May = x - 0.6x (total earnings - Mr Lee's earnings) = 0.4x
Amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 20% more than what Mr Lee earned in May.
That is, amount earned by Mr Lee in June = 1.2 × 0.6x = 0.72x
Amount earned by other members of the family in June remains unchanged, that is = 0.4x
Total amount earned by the Lee family in June = 0.72x + 0.4x = 1.12x
Percentage of total earnings in June earned by Mr. Lee = (0.72x/1.12x) × 100% = 64.29%.
