Answer:
1134.62 (THE SUM OF 20 TERMS)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we write out our given information:
a8=2a2
a11=18
an is an arithmetic sequence.
Where here an means the nth term of our sequence.
What does an arithmetic sequence mean? It means to get to the next term in your sequence you add a constant (c) each time:
an+1=an+c
Equivalently:
an+1−an(n+1)−n=c
So an is of slope c (c2 is another constant):
an=cn+c2
Where here c2=a0 (Substitute in n=0 and see why that has to be the case if we let a0 exist)
Now we use the other given information to try to come up with a solution.
Let n=2:
a2=2c+c2
Let n=8, using the above equation we have:
a8=8c+c2=2a2=4c+2c2
Let n=11
a11=18
a11=11c+c2
But a11−a8=(11c+c2)−(8c+c2)=3c
Hence, a11=3c+a8
a11=3c+4c+2c2=18
a11=3c+8c+c2=18
The ratio is (saturated fat) : (total fat) -----
6 grams : 9 grams -----
Divide both sides by 3 -----
6/3 grams : 9/3 grams -----
2 grams : 3 grams -----
2:3 is the ratio -----
You can also represent it in fraction form : 2/3
A suitable probability app shows the 1st percentile to be at about 11040 pages.
_____
The app shown has an error in the first decimal digit. The number is closer to 11040.82301. We expect the manufacturer would round to the nearest 10 or 50 or 100 in advertising.
Here is the set up:
Side 1 is 4x.
Side 2 is 5x + 3
Side 3 is 5x + 1
The perimeter is 102.
Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3
102 = 4x + 5x + 3 + 5x + 1
102 = 14x + 4
Take it from here.
