Answer:

It can be filled 15 times

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 casks hold 120 gallons each,

5x120= 600

To find how many times a 40gallon barrel can be filled,

= 600/40

= 15

This means a 40 gallon barrel will be filled 15 times.

Answer:

15 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Each cask holds 120 gallons, so if we have 5 casks, we have a total of 120 * 5 = 600 gallons

We want to know how many times can a 40-gallon barrel can be filled, so we can do a rule of three:

1 barrel -> 40 gallons

X barrels -> 600 gallons

1/X = 40/600

X = 600/40 = 15 barrels

So the barrel can be filled 15 times

Answer:

161

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

$a_1=1\\ \\a_n=3a_{n-1}+2$

<u>Find:</u> $a_5$

First, find the second term. Substitute n=2:

$a_2=3a_1+2=3\cdot 1+2=3+2=5$

Now, find the third term, substitute n=3:

$a_3=3a_2+2=3\cdot 5+2=15+2=17$

Find the 4th term, substitute n=4:

$a_4=3a_3+2=3\cdot 17+2=51+2=53$

At last, find the fifth term, substitute n=5:

$a_5=3a_4+2=3\cdot 53+2=159+2=161$
