Answer:
a₆ = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₂ = 5 and a₁₀ = 19 , then
a₁ + d = 5 → (1)
a₁ + 9d = 19 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁
8d = 14 ( divide both sides by 8 )
d = 1.75
Substitute d = 1.75 into (1)
a₁ + 1.75 = 5 ( subtract 1.75 from both sides )
a₁ = 3.25
Then
a₆ = 3.25 + 5(1.75) = 3.25 + 8.75 = 12
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The contiguous U.S. consist of all states beside Alaska and Hawaii; therefore, there are 48 contiguous U.S. states. However, the ratio given to us only consists of 16 states [7 + 9 = 16]. If we need to expand the ratio, we multiply 16 by 3 to get 48. Thus, we also multiply each of the terms by 3, and the ratio becomes 21:27. Therefore, the number of contiguous U.S. states that border an ocean is 21.
Answer:
110
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define 
. So when we divide it by 'x+1', we can use Bezout's Theorem which states: that any polynomial(P(X)) divided by another binomial in the form 'x - a', then the remainder will be P(a).
We can use this fact to determine the remainder, because we divided our P(X) by x + 1 which is the same as x - (-1). So we plug in P(-1).
P(-1) = (-1)^11 + 101 = -1 + 101 = 110
Answer:
210 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we are going to find the exchange rate from dollars to pounds.
We know form our problem that 800 dollars are 560 pounds. so:
\frac{560pounds}{800dollars} =0.7
800dollars
560pounds
=0.7 pounds per dollar.
Next, we are going to multiply our exchange rate by the number of dollars we want to change, 300:
300dollars*\frac{0.7pounds}{dollar} =210pounds300dollars∗
dollar
0.7pounds
=210pounds
We will get 210 pounds for 300 dollars
