Answer: the term number is 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of the term be x

The value of the xth term = 488

In an arithmetic sequence, the terms differ by a common difference, d. This means that the difference between two consecutive terms, d is constant.

The formula for the nth term is

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where

Tn = the nth term of the arithmetic sequence

a = the first term of the arithmetic sequence.

d = common difference.

From the information given,

a = 7

d = 13

We are looking for the xth term.

Tx = 488 = 7 + (x-1)13

488 = 7 + 13x - 13

Collecting like terms on the left hand side and right hand side of the equation,

13x = 488 -7 + 13

13x = 494

x = 38

The value of the 38th term is 488.

Will it fit in a pot with a height of 20 cm and a bottom radius of 10 cm of 2.5 liters?
mylen [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of pot = πr²h

                       = 3.14 * 10 * 10 * 20

                       = 6280 cubic cm

1000 cubic cm = 1 litre

6280 cubic cm = 6.28 litre

∵ 2.5 litres will fit in the pot as the capacity of pot is 6.28 litre

Only multiplication and division don't change the ratio that made the order pairs in the bigger picture the triangle. Only one is not congruent. I'm about 90% sure I got it correct.

Write as an algebraic expression: <br><br> 1) a% of 80 <br><br> 2) 17% of b <br><br> 3) a% of b
Anna35 [415]
1) 4a/5
a% of 80 = a% (80) = (a/100)(80) = 80a/100 = 4a/5

2) 17b/100 or 0.17b
17% of b = (17/100)(b) = 17b/100 [ = 0.17b ]

3) ab/100
a% of b = (a/100)(b) = ab/100
