Answer:

The first term is 13/3 and the common difference is d = 1/12

The formula is a(n) = 13/3 + (1/12)(n - 1)        

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for an arithmetic progression is:

a(n) = a(1) + d(n - 1), where d is the common difference/

Case 1:  n = 7:  29/6 = a(1) + d(7 - 1), or 29/6 = a(1) + d(6)

Case 2:  n = 15:  11/2 = a(1) + d(15 - 1) =  a(1) + d(14)

Then our system of linear equations is:

a(1) + 6d = 29/6

a(1) + 14d = 11/2

Let's solve this by elimination by addition and subtraction.  Subtract the first equation from the second.  We get:

                                                             

Substituting 1/12 for d in the first equation, we get:

a(1) + 14(1/12) = 11/2 or 66/12 (using the LCD 12)

Then a(1) = 66/12 - 14/12 = 52/12 = 13/3

The first term is 13/3 and the common difference is d = 1/12

The arithmetic sequence formula for this problem is thus:

a(n) = 13/3 + (1/12)(n - 1)                                                                          8

Write 0.624 as a percent and as a simplified fraction.
Doss [256]
Okay to find the percent version of 0.624 you multiply by 100. 0.624×100=62.4%. Now as a fraction the last number behind the decimal is in the thousandths place so put 624 over 1000. 624/1000 simplified it would be 78/125

Which is the correct answer?
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

I'm not sure but I think it is letter A

Step-by-step explanation:

Because first off 0 is divisible by any integer number meaning it has to be divide by a whole number not fraction. Also, 0 + 2 = 2 then you divide that by 4 is 0.5.

Vadim26 [7]

SOLUTION;

\sqrt[]{-36}\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(36)(-1)}\text{ = }\sqrt[]{36}\text{ x }\sqrt[]{-1\text{ }}\text{ = 6i}

Recall that the square root of the negative one is "i" meaning that it is a complex number and not a real number.
