Which Expression Can Be Used To Determine the nth term in the pattern below 20,25,30,35,40

Mathematics

maw [93]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the terms of an arithmetic sequence with n th term

a_{n} = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term and d the common difference

d = 25 - 20 = 30 - 25 = 5 and a = 20, hence

a_{n} = 20 + 5(n - 1) = 20 + 5n - 5 = 5n + 15 ← n th term formula

Fiona’s Number:
Amanda [17]

Answer:

He should dial 289-743-1560

Step-by-step explanation:

The first three digits:  "My first three digits are the square of an integer less than twenty"

Step 1:   We can get the first three by looking at the squares of the integers from 1 to 19.  We need a three digit number, so starting with 10, since 10² = 100, we list the squares of the integers from 10 to 19

10² = 100

11² = 121

12² = 144

13² = 169

14² = 196

15² = 225

16² = 256

17² = 289

18² = 324

19² = 361

Step 2:  "The first three digits are in ascending order" and no digits can repeat, so we eliminate the answers above that don't satisfy both of these condintions.  This leaves just 3 choices:

13² = 169

16² = 256

17² = 289

*We will come back to this once we have more information.

The last 2 numbers: "the last two digits are multiples of sixty".  

The only 2 digit number that is a multiple of 60 is 60, so 6 and 0 are the last 2 digits.  This rules out two answers from Step 1 since no digits can repeat.  Only 289 works since 169 and 256 each have a 6 in them.  So now we know the first 3, and last 2 numbers!

                                     2 8 9 _ _ _ _ _ 6 0

The last 4 numbers: "the last 4 digits are multiples of sixty"

We want to find a 4 four digit number that has 60 as the last 2 digits.  Notice a pattern when you multiply 60 by certain digits...

60 x 1 = 60

60 x 2 = 120

...

60 x 6 = 360

60 x 11 = 660

60 x 16 = 960     (these all don't work since they are not 4 digits)

60 x 21 = 1260     (this is the first 4 digit result, but it doesn't work because

                              there is a '2' in it, and 2 has already been used as the

                               first digit of the number)

60 x 26 = 1560     (this number could work, so lets try it and see if we can

                               satisfy the rest of the statements)

Now our number is

  2 8 9 _ _ _ 1 5 6 0

The second three digits:  "The second three digits are in descending order"  and "The sum of the second three digits is 14"

If we assume that 1, 5, 6 and 0 are the last four digits, we know that 2, 8 and 9 are the first three digits, this leaves 3, 4 and 7 as the three remaining digits.  

3 + 4 + 7 = 14     so that condition is satisfied.   We just need to write then in descending order, so our final number is

289-743-1560

At the beginning of year 1, Bode invests $250 at an annual simple interest rate of 3%. He makes no deposits to or withdrawals fr
Dennis_Churaev [7]
The initial investment = $250
<span>annual simple interest rate of 3% = 0.03
</span>
Let the number of years = n
the annual increase = 0.03 * 250
At the beginning of year 1 ⇒ n = 1 ⇒⇒⇒ A(1) = 250 + 0 * 250 * 0.03 = 250

At the beginning of year 2 ⇒ n = 2 ⇒⇒⇒ A(2) = 250 + 1 * 250 * 0.03
At the beginning of year 3 ⇒ n = 3 ⇒⇒⇒ A(2) = 250 + 2 * 250 * 0.03
and so on .......
∴ <span>The formula that can be used to find the account’s balance at the beginning of year n is:
</span>
A(n) = 250 + (n-1)(0.03 • 250)
<span>At the beginning of year 14 ⇒ n = 14 ⇒ substitute with n at A(n)</span>
∴ A(14) = 250 + (14-1)(0.03*250) = 347.5

So, the correct option is <span>D.A(n) = 250 + (n – 1)(0.03 • 250); $347.50 </span>
