Answer: choice B) a35 = -118
=====================================================
Explanation:
When n = 5, an = 32 as shown in the first column of the table. This means the fifth term is 32. Plug in those values to get
an = a1+d(n-1)
32 = a1+d(5-1)
32 = a1+4d
Solve for a1 by subtracting 4d from both sides
a1 = 32-4d
We'll plug this in later
Turn to the second column of the table. We have n = 10 and an = 7. Plug those values into the formula
an = a1+d(n-1)
7 = a1 + d(10-1)
7 = a1+9d
Now substitute in the equation in which we solved for a1
7 = a1+9d
7 = 32-4d+9d ... replace a1 with 32-4d
7 = 32+5d
5d = 7-32
5d = -25
d = -25/5
d = -5
This tells us that we subtract 5 from each term to get the next term.
Use this d value to find a1
a1 = 32-4d
a1 = 32-4*(-5)
a1 = 32+20
a1 = 52
The first term is 52
--------------
The nth term formula is therefore
an = 52 + (-5)(n-1)
which simplifies to
an = -5n + 57
To check this result, plug in n = 5 to find that a5 = 32. Similarly, you'll find that a10 = 7 after plugging in n = 10. I'll let you do these checks.
--------------
Replace n with 35 to find the 35th term
an = -5n + 57
a35 = -5(35) + 57
a35 = -175 + 57
a35 = -118
Step-by-step explanation:
4(px + 1) = 64
Step 1: Add -4 to both sides.
4px + 4 -4 = 64 + -4
4px = 60
Step 2: Divide both sides by 4p.
<u>4px</u> = <u>60</u>
4p 4p
x = <u>15</u>
p
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
[(7+3)5-4]/2+3
-To solve this equation you have to use PEMDAS
P- Parentheses
E- Exponents
M- Multiplication
D- Division
A- Addition
S- Subtraction-
- With MD and AS you work left to right of the equation since they are in the same spot. (PE[MD][AS])
Step 1) [(10)5-4]/2+3
- First you do "P," parentheses, so you add 7+3=10
Step 2) [50-4]/2+3
- Next you do "M," multiplication, and multiply 10x5=50
Step 3) [46]/2+3
- Then you do "S," subtraction, and subtract 50-4=46
(FYI: Steps 1-3 were still in the parentheses. We had to start with the parentheses in the parentheses, work PEMDAS, and now we are out of the parentheses and have to work PEMDAS on the rest of the problem.)
Step 4) 23+3
- Now we do "D," division, and divide 46/2=23
Step 5) 23+3=6
- Finally we do "A," addition, and add 23+3=26 so the answer is 26
(FYI: "/" means division)
