How many terms are in the arithmetic sequence 5, 1, −3, . . . , −111?

1 answer:

8 0

First term (a) = 5, common difference (d) = 1 - 5 = -4, last term (l) = -111

l = a + (n - 1)d
-111 = 5 + (n - 1) x -4 = 5 - 4n + 4 = 9 - 4n
4n = 9 + 111 = 120
n = 120/4 = 30

Therefore, there are 30 terms.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

8.85% per year

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interest rate of a compounding interest, we use the formula:

$r=n[(\dfrac{A}{P})^{\dfrac{1}{nt}}-1]$

Before we start solving, let's break down all the variables that we have.

A = 19,992.71

P = 10,000.00

n = 2

t = 8

r = ?

Now let's put the values into the formula.

$r=2[(\dfrac{19,992.71}{10,000.00})^{\dfrac{1}{2(8)}}-1]$

$r=2[(\dfrac{19,992.71}{10,000.00})^{\dfrac{1}{16}}-1]$

$r=2[(\dfrac{19,992.71}{10,000.00})^{0.0625}-1]$

$r=2[(1.9992.1)^{0.0625}-1]$

$r=2[1.0442499885-1]$

$r=2[0.0442499885]$

$r=0.08849997699$ or $8.85%$

So the rate the Mrs. Emily Francis got from the bank was 8.85% per year.
