The temperature is 45°F. The temperature will decrease by 2°F each hour. Let h be the number of hours.

1 answer:

8 0

45 - 2t < 32 ( where t is time and you can replace it with x or h if you prefer)
Solving for t you get:
45 - 2t - 32 < 0
45 - 32 < 2t
13 < 2t
13/2 < t
Or the temperature will drop below 32F after 6 and a half hours

What is the general term equation, an, for the arithmetic sequence 5, 1, −3, −7, . . . , and what is the 21st term of this seque

coldgirl [10]

The common difference, d, can be determined by subtracting the two consecutive values:

1 - 5 = -4
-3 - 1 = -4
-7 - -3 = -4

Then, using the equation:

an = a1+ d(n-1)
a_21 = 5 + (-4)(21 - 1)
a_21 = -75

The answer is letter D. I hope I was able to help you. Have a good day!
