Answer: The third term is -14

----------------------------------------------

Explanation:

First term = A(1) = 20, which is given

Second term
A(n) = A(n-1) - 17
A(2) = A(2-1) - 17
A(2) = A(1) - 17 .... note: second term = (first term) - 17
A(2) = 20 - 17
A(2) = 3

Third term
A(n) = A(n-1) - 17
A(3) = A(3-1) - 17
A(3) = A(2) - 17 ... note: third term = (second term) - 17
A(3) = 3 - 17
A(3) = -14

Students were packed shoulder to shoulder in a gym for a pep rally. The students were in a rectangular shaped area of 7,500 ft2.
hram777 [196]

Answer: 1527

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Area = 7500 ft^2

Area covered by one student = Area of one circle

                                                   = π*r^2

r = radius of circle = 2.5/2 = 1.25 ft

Area covered by one student = π*1.25^2 = 4.91 ft^2

Number of students who can fit into total area = Total Area/Area covered by one student

Number of students who can fit into total area = 7500/4.91 = 1527.49

Hence the answer is 1527 students
